About Amal-Shy and Sweet

Hello- my name is Amal. I'm estimated at close to 2 years old and last weighted in at 50 lbs. I was found in a remote area of Miami trying to care for my babies that I delivered in the middle of nowhere. I was extremely scared and shy. Another rescue took me and my puppies in, but they incorrectly labeled me as 'feral' and did not want to take the time to work with me. I deserved better, so Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue took me in and provided all of the time, love and patience to help me come out of my shell and learn to trust humans again. Over the last ten months, I made a little bit of progress day by day, week by week, month by month. My shyness and fear have greatly improved, but I'll still need a quiet home that does not have a lot of traffic or activity for me to acclimate to a new environment. I have learned to walk well on leash, which was a whole new concept for me. I love being around smaller dogs, but can be a little selective with dogs my size as some can be a bit more intimidating - so like other adoptable dogs, existing pets will need to come to the meet and greet to see how we get along, I'm a very sweet girl and while I am much more social and comfortable now, overcoming my fear and shyness is still a work in progress. I am needing someone who is willing to be patient and take the time with me as I continue to learn 'how to dog'. My $150 adoption fee includes vet check, up-to-date vaccinations, spay, heartworm test (negative), microchip and deworming. If you want to make me part of your family please go to www.gofar.dog and complete a free, non-binding adoption application.
