Calypso was surrendered to Memphis Animal Services severely emaciated and heartworm positive, assumed to be a sheph mix. After being pulled into rescue, it was determined by DNA that she is American Bully, Akita, American Pit Bull Terrier. True to her roots, Calypso is opinionated, has a high prey drive, and is loyal to her person. She tries to eat the water out of the hose, she loves her ball that makes noises, and loved to get treats. Calypso needs someone familiar with the Akita breed, and someone who is willing to put in some serious training hours so she has the skills to be the best possible version of herself. She is smart, and ready to work. She currently lives in a home with other dogs but only gets along with two of them. She lives with cats but cannot be left unmonitored with them. She lives with children but is very high-energy, so small children not recommended.
