about athena

Athena came to us after being surrendered shortly after giving birth to eight beautiful puppies. Unfortunately, due to her being bred with her father, there were complications that resulted in the loss of four of her puppies. Despite the challenges, Athena proved to be an extraordinary mother, and all of her puppies have since found loving forever homes. Now, it’s Athena’s turn to find her own!

Athena is an energetic and vocal girl who thrives on activity. She loves playing fetch, exploring new surroundings, and running at full speed on the treadmill. Athena is looking for an active family that can provide her with the exercise, training, and mental stimulation she needs to stay happy and healthy.

Though Athena has made impressive strides in her reactivity toward strangers and other dogs, she will benefit from continued training and routine to help her reach her full potential. She’s highly motivated by toys and treats, making her eager to learn.

Athena is also incredibly affectionate and enjoys snuggling with her favorite people. However, she can get mouthy when she’s excited, so she would do best in a home with teens or adults. Athena tends to do well with dogs after a structured introduction and would love to have a dog sibling who matches her energy and temperament.

If you’re looking for a loving, spirited companion who’s ready to learn and grow with you, Athena could be the perfect addition to your family!
