Story
Babsy!
Babsy was picked up as a stray by a caring individual. That lady already had 4 dogs of her own. But, she just could not look away and ignore Babsy. So, she let her in to her home.
Well, little did Babsy know (and the lady) that not only did that save Babsy but also her 6 unborn pups. YUP! She was pregnant! And two months later, she had 6 little babies!
Well, if you are doing the math that now makes 11 dogs at this kind lady's home. And that was already a lot for her to handle. And then the lady became very ill. She was no longer able to care for Babsy and her 5 month old pups and nor for her own dogs.
This is when A.M.O.R. was contacted for help. Immediately, we were able to get Babsy and her pups vaccinated and spayed/neutered.
Her pups are adopted and now it is her turn!
Babsy is a fun and crazy girl. She will do zoomies around you, on the sofa, and in the yard. She is fast and funny! And then she will all of a sudden stop, roll over and give you her belly for belly rubs! She loves toys and anything chew toys. She loves going for walks. She loves being with a person/s. She loves just hanging out with you as well.
She gets along with dogs of all sizes and ages. But, she can be kind of crazy so your super chill dogs won't really want her messing with them. She can be high energy when she is around other dogs.
She is EXTREMELY good in her kennel. She has never made a potty mess in it. She sleeps well the whole night. Bed time is 10pm. She is super chill until you open her kennel door to go potty. At that point, she quickly pops out of the kennel, runs to the sofa, does a quick zoomie, rolls over for belly rubs, and then jumps off and makes her way to the back door where she quickly exits and finds her spot to potty.
After that, she has some play time with the other pups in the rescue and then lays down to enjoy the weather. When it is time to come inside, she quickly comes in, and finds her spot on the couch for cuddles. When it is time to take a nap in her kennel, she will need to be guided to it. She enters quietly and quickly and lays down. She is pretty quiet inside her kennel for the most part. The exception is when the cat is loose and is taunting them. Then she will bark at the cat. She gets along GREAT with cats but doesn't like being in a kennel when the cat is free. Who can blame her!?!
Babsy is ready for her FOREVER HOME! She is a fun, loving, funny, quirky, happy, confident girl.
All of Babsy's vetting has been done by my personal dogs' vet. The following is a list of what has been done for her...
Spayed
All 4 - DA2PP shots (Distemper, Adenovirus Type 2 (Hepatitis), Parvo, and Parainfluenza)
Bordatella shot
Rabies shot
Dewormed
Tested, Treated (if needed), and retested for giardia and coccidia
Iverhart heartworm preventative
Simparica fleas and ticks preventative
Chipped
There are two categories of vaccines: “core” vaccines that are recommended for all pets, and “non-core vaccines” which may be recommended by your vet based on lifestyle and exposure risk. The core vaccine for dogs is the Rabies vaccine, which is required by law. The second core vaccine for dogs is often referred to as the DA2PP or DHPP vaccine. This stands for “Distemper, Adenovirus Type 2 (Hepatitis), Parvo, and Parainfluenza”, meaning that this vaccine protects against FOUR different diseases.
It is especially important for puppies to begin a series of DA2PP vaccines at six to eight weeks of age, as natural immunity obtained from the mother decreases and puppies become very susceptible to potentially life-threatening diseases such as Canine Parvovirus (Parvo). Parvo is transmitted through feces and can remain in the environment for at least one month, and up to a year if the conditions are right. This means that puppies do not need to be directly exposed to another dog that has Parvo in order to contract the disease, and caution is advised when choosing where and how to socialize and exercise your pup. We recommend avoiding exposure to unknown dogs or public places until your puppy has finished their vaccine series. BUT, all A.M.O.R. puppies (1 year old and less) have all FOUR shots. They are safe to join you and your family on your outdoor adventures and you can rest at ease.
Non-core vaccines for dogs include Bordetella, Influenza, Leptospirosis and Lyme. The Bordetella (aka: Kennel Cough) help to prevent highly-contagious respiratory diseases, and are essential for dogs that may be exposed to other dogs, especially in group settings such as dog parks, daycare, or boarding facilities. All A.M.O.R. dogs and puppies are given a Bordatella vaccine. Bordatella boosters are given every 6 months.

The above link is to provide you information regarding why deworming is so important for all dogs of all ages (and for their families).
All A.M.O.R.s are dewormed upon entering the rescue and then again 5 days before their health certificate visit (when they have been adopted and ready to travel). This dewormer is issued per our vet. And all pets are tested, treated (if needed), and retested for coccidia and giardia.
A.M.O.R. provides you with this information so that you can be aware of the work and love that is given to each pet. Each puppy has visited the vet AT LEAST 5 times during their stay with us. They have seen the vet 4 times for their shots and will see the vet 1-2 more times prior to transport in order to obtain a health certificate for travel. Adult dogs have seen the vet AT LEAST 3 times. Two visits for their shots and 1-2 visits prior to transport in order to obtain a health certificate.
Are you ready to have a lifetime of fun with Babsy???
All animals receive a health certificate (stating that a licensed veterinarian saw the pet and deemed it healthy for travel, but is not a promise of perfect health).
Please email for an A.M.O.R. application in order to be considered.
Please note: this pet is located out of state.
