CRATE TRAINING: She does well in her crate. OBEDIENCE TRAINING: Great! She knows sit, down, wait, place and walks very well on a leash. OTHER DOGS: Good! She would like another dog in the home.

She is spayed, microchipped, flea treated, vaccinated, and dewormed. Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as transportation and general care costs. HISTORY: Amy came from a rescue in Texas where she was loved, but more shy than her siblings. She has overcome a lot, but still has room to grow with patience and love! NOTES FROM FOSTER HOME: Found on the dusty streets of Texas, a special dog named Amy Santiago found herself in need of a new beginning. Much like her namesake from the beloved series "Brooklyn 99," our Amy embodies a blend of sweetness, dedication, and a touch of shyness that makes her truly one-of-a-kind. To know Amy is to understand the depth of her love and affection. She may not wear her heart on her sleeve, but give her a short time, and she'll show you a love that is deep and enduring. Amy's affection is like a slowly blooming flower; it requires patience and gentle care, but the reward is a bond that is truly unbreakable. She thrives in the company of those who understand her need for time and space, blossoming into a companion whose loyalty and love know no bounds. While Amy might find the human world a tad overwhelming at times, her heart beats in tune with the canine kind. She is a testament to the idea that dogs, too, can find soulmates in one another. Her eyes light up at the sight of fellow four-legged friends, and her tail wags in a rhythm that speaks of pure joy. The yard becomes her domain, a playground where she engages in the timeless dance of play and camaraderie with other dogs, showing us all the beauty of friendship and mutual respect. Amy's story is not just about her past but about the future she dreams ofone filled with love, understanding, and the kind of patience that allows trust to flourish. She may not be the first to pull you towards the hiking trails or eagerly lead the way through bustling city streets, but with time and the right family, Amy can learn to see the world as a place of adventure, not anxiety. Her ideal family would be one that understands the value of quiet moments and the power of gentle encouragement. Amy's journey towards becoming a confident companion is one that requires a shared commitment to slow, steady socialization and the recognition that every small step is a victory. For the family lucky enough to welcome Amy into their hearts and home, the promise is one of unconditional love. Amy Santiago may start as a shy, reserved soul, but with patience, she will reveal the depth of her affection and the strength of her spirit. Her story is a reminder that sometimes, the most profound connections come from the gentlest of souls, and that with understanding and patience, even the quietest among us can find our place in the world.
