My story

Amos, Neutered male, 1 year 8 months,, 46-Lbs. If you would like to give AMOS a forever home, please contact abetterchancerescue@gmail.com OR log onto abetterchancerescue.org to fill out online application About Amos: Amos is one of the best behaved dogs, according to the foster family. He is loving and passionate, yet stable, calm, friendly and obedient. He can easily befriend strangers including kids; also gets along well with other dogs and cats. He is potty trained and crate trained. He will be your good friend and a great companion pet. Amos is patiently waiting for a second chance to join a family of his own! Amos’ rescue story: Amos used to be a stray and was taken home to guard the house by his master. Unfortunately, Amos was terribly mistreated: not only he was poorly fed, but also often beaten by his master. When Amos’s plight was witnessed by the volunteer, she mad a desperate plea for Amos’ owner to let her take Amos from him. Reluctantly, the man gave in. Under the care of his foster family, Amos gained both weight and good spirit; most importantly, he never lost his trust toward humans. Amos also learned good manner and sanitation habit.
