About Amethyst

This is the face of a true rescue. Amethyst was found as a stray by the pound and only weighing around 36 pounds when she should be closer to 50-60 pounds. She is very malnourished and has a long way to go in recovery. We believe she was used as a bait dog for much of her young life. Amethyst is between 1-2 years old, 36 pounds, and a believed Boxer/Dalmatian Mix. She is good with dogs (but can be selective at times) and has not been cat tested. That would be something you would have to do at your own discretion. We will not be homing her with children due to her past abuse/neglect. Please consider adopting this beautiful girl. She has been pulled from the pound by Ruffus Rescue and will remain in her foster home until she's a healthy weight, around 60 pounds. Please check out her updates on Facebook @ruffusrescueatlanta and to apply for her please go to Ruffusrescue.com. *Update* She is spayed and ready for adoption now weighing around 50 pounds. She has also received some training to work through some of negative behaviors. Amy becomes very protective of her handler and can be stranger reactive. Our trainer would be happy to help out any potential adopters. She will require a strong alpha owner who is prepared to help train her, she is extremely intelligent and eager to please.
