00:00We did find one dog.
00:03She's a German Shepherd.
00:05She's seven months old.
00:08She is a three-legged dog.
00:11Okay, okay, okay.
00:13She loves people and she's bubbly and outgoing and sociable,
00:18just like you want.
00:21Can we go now?
00:23So I sold her, that's all I need to say.
00:27Boom, let's go.
00:29Come on Amori, let's go.
00:31Yeah, yeah.
00:33Brothers Aaron and Cecil have come along to help their mum Pauline
00:37find a new partner to jive with.
00:40There you go.
00:43This is Amori. She is seven months old.
00:48Amori originally came in because she was hit by a car
00:52and sadly she had to have the front leg amputated in the end.
00:56But she's still wagging her tail.
00:58Come on.
01:03You were just being lazy.
01:05You were just being lazy with your snuggles.
01:09Amori is very affectionate.
01:11She's constantly coming over to you, head on lap, wants tons of snuggles.
01:15We're going to try and find you a good home for Christmas, yeah?
01:18Yeah.
01:24OK, okie dokie, right.
01:26Yes.
01:28Me and my ex, we were married for about 21 years.
01:33Everything was fine, you know.
01:36Yeah, it was all happy at the beginning.
01:41Yeah.
01:45But then I felt he tried to change me as a person.
01:51Wow.
01:53I didn't sing.
01:55I didn't dance around the house, listen to music.
02:00He didn't like Christmas.
02:03If I put the decorations up, he'd just rip them down.
02:11She wasn't herself.
02:13The glint in her eye was fading and fading and fading.
02:19I felt trapped.
02:24And I thought, no, enough.
02:29It was like a light bulb moment, and I told him.
02:33I said, today I went to a solicitor to divorce you.
02:39So, Mum, once it comes through, that is your new door opening.
02:44Yeah.
02:46Come on.
02:47This way.
02:50There you go, girl.
02:52Oh, in you go.
02:55Wow.
02:56In you go.
02:57Hello.
02:58How are you?
02:59This is Omori.
03:00Of course, as you know, Espetra's only got three legs.
03:02But it hasn't stopped her at all.
03:04Go on then, I'll let you off and you can go and say hi.
03:07Here you go.
03:08Have a good time, Omori.
03:10Have a sniff around.
03:13That's it.
03:22Omori, come and lie in the sun.
03:25I thought she would just go straight up to them
03:27because she's so sociable in the kennel.
03:30She's been really traumatised at a very influential stage
03:34of her emotional development.
03:37It takes a while to build up trust.
03:40I'll get a cup of treats.
03:43Where's she going?
03:46Um, nice red ball.
03:49Yes.
03:50Omori, nice red ball.
03:52Fetch.
03:53Go on.
03:55No?
03:58We know she's got a really big, loving personality.
04:01She's just not ready to let herself go.
04:06Shall I have a look and see what other toys there are?
04:10Maybe like a tug toy or something like that,
04:12see if you can move it around.
04:14This?
04:15Yeah.
04:16Yeah, OK.
04:19Let's play.
04:20Yeah.
04:21Move it from side to side.
04:22There you go.
04:25It's coming.
04:29Come on then.
04:31There.
04:32Ah, you got it.
04:35That's it.
04:36That's it.
04:37Tug them all.
04:38Well done.
04:39Aw, give her a five.
04:40That's nice.
04:41That's nice.
04:42Come on.
04:43You see those boys there?
04:45They're my favourite,
04:46but they know you're going to be more of the favourite.
04:51That's it.
04:52Yes.
04:53Ready?
04:54Go.
04:55That's it.
04:56Back to me.
05:02Oh.
05:03Oh.
05:04It's going to come close to your arse, right?
05:06Yeah.
05:07Oh, she's coming to you now.
05:08Straight to Mummy.
05:09Straight to Mummy.
05:10That's it.
05:11Good girl.
05:12She got spooked and it was Pauline she went to.
05:14Look at the trust that's been built up between them already.
05:20Going to have a cuddle up with me?
05:22Yeah?
05:23Have a cuddle up.
05:25Really nice dog, Mum.
05:28Aw, look, she's snuggled in.
05:30Oh, don't cry.
05:39I decided to take Amore home for good.
05:44Where shall I put it?
05:45Here?
05:46Yeah?
05:47Good girl.
05:48Her new name is Ava.
05:50She just makes me feel happy.
05:52We do everything together.
05:54Go.
05:56It's two of us girls against the world.
