Amanda is one of the sweetest, most gentle, and sensitive ladies youandamp;#39;ll ever meet. She is such a love. She is shy at first, but all she wants to hear is a little baby voice, and sheandamp;#39;ll be army-crawling towards you and melting in your lap. She is very scared in the shelter and we think this girl will blossom in a home with lots of love, especially if you love to snuggle. Amanda doesnandamp;#39;t mind being carried and loves her wagon rides (Sheandamp;#39;s currently too scared to walk on leash, so our volunteers will take her on rolls around Downtown El Paso. She loves it.) andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;If you want a cuddle bug and want to change a life, come meet Amanda today!

Additional adoption info
All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis and must be made in person. As a high-intake shelter, most of the pets that come to us are strays, meaning we have limited background history on the pet, such as health, behavioral or living history. All adoptions include the animal's spay/neuter procedure, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and city license. All adoptions include a 7 day free trial with our training partner, GoodPup to help ease the transition!
