Amigo's Story

Hi. I’m Amigo. Yes, the Amigo. Try to keep up. Let’s get a few things straight right away: I may be 8–10 years young, but I’ve still got plenty of pep in these paws and a personality that could run a small country. I was found out there on my own like some kind of mysterious legend… and oddly enough, no one ever came looking for me. Their loss. Huge loss. Honestly, I upgraded.<br/><br/>I’m what you’d call “spicy”—not mean, just… selective. I know what I like, and I’m not afraid to have opinions about it. But once you’re in my inner circle? Oh, you’re in. I’m loyal, devoted, and will absolutely follow you around like your tiny, judgmental shadow (with love, of course).<br/><br/>I enjoy the finer things in life:<br/><br/>A cozy bed (preferably yours)<br/>Snacks (obviously)<br/>Being told I’m handsome (frequently, thank you)<br/>A calm home where I can relax and rule in peace<br/><br/>I’ve been through enough to know that what I really want now is something simple—a forever home where I can feel safe, loved, and maybe just a little bit spoiled (okay, a lot spoiled).<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a dog with personality, loyalty, and just the right amount of sass… congratulations. You found me.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt me. I’ll be waiting. Probably judging you a little—but also ready to love you forever.<br/><br/>Our organization is foster based which means that we really know and understand our dogs personalities as our volunteers live each day in their house with our rescued dogs. Our fosters are available to answer your questions and will give you all the details you need to know about our dogs such as if they are shy, are they outgoing, what is their energy level, are they couch potatoes, love bugs, kissers, lickers, so please do apply and ask our fosters questions - this will ensure you find your pur-fect match in our rescue!<br/><br/>***IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN FOSTERING OR ADOPTING AMOGO, PLEASE FILL OUT AN APPLICATION AT WWW.MANYPAWSGLOBALRESCUE.ORG***

Many Paws Global Rescue Inc's Adoption Policy
Petfinder Inquiries are NOT an adoption application. If you are interested in adopting, you must fill out an application. After receiving an application via https://manypawsglobalrescue.org/applications-for-adoption/ , we call the potential adopter and explain our process and answer any questions they may have. After the initial call, we then call three personal references, vet reference and landlord (if applicable). Please understand that some animals will get several applications and our main priority is to find the BEST fit for each animal. We do not fully approve applicants until after the meet and great. Due to COVID, we have had to alter our home visits and are hosting calls via Zoom to see the home. In addition, we "Google map" to see what the traffic flow is around the home. After you submit an application, one of the Many Paws member will reach out to you via phone. If we feel the applicant may be a good fit, we set up a time for a meet and greet. Only after the meet and greet, if all goes well, we will then approve applicant and will finalize adoption contracts and fees.
