Story
Amadeus, a sweet gentle soul with a heart of gold who just wants to be by your side. Whether you’re doing housework, gardening, or relaxing on the couch, he’ll be your loyal companion, always nearby and keeping an eye on you. He loves his walks and gets so excited when he sees the leash, frolicking about and happily greeting everyone he meets along the way.
While polite with other dogs, he prefers calm four-legged companions and personal space when enjoying one-on-one time and during mealtime. He communicates everything with his big, expressive eyes, from wanting a cuddle to reminding you it’s dinnertime. While he doesn’t play with toys, he does have a playful side and loves to gallop and run about outside as if he was a youngster. If you want to see this guy melt, just give him a nice little backrub, he really leans into them, it’s adorable!
Amadeus has been working very hard on housetraining and has made significant progress, understanding that he will require frequent potty breaks is the key to his success! While his foster mom recommends that he wear a belly band in the house while getting used to the routine, once a solid routine is established no belly band will be needed. Amadeus is crate-trained and does great when left in his crate during the day or overnight, he seems to find comfort there.
Amadeus has kidney disease and must continue to stay on a KD canned food diet. His foster mom also fills his water dish with filtered water—she firmly believes this has helped him tremendously and has kept him feeling his very best. He also loves his kidney-safe treats as he can have a sensitive tummy if given anything else. He is working on learning some commands and has nearly perfected the sit command!
With his calm nature, soulful stare, and endless love to give, Amadeus is ready to be someone’s devoted companion. He just wants to be close to his person—and promises to fill your life with an abundance of smiles, lots of joy and unconditional love.
