Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Athena is a spunky little gal looking for a loving forever home. She is hoping for an adventurous person/family that loves activity and will keep her busy and challenged with lots of new things! This little love bug is as smart and clever as they come. She learned how to sit and wait patiently for a treat in a matter of minutes, and responds very well to direction from her foster mom. This precious girl has known nothing but love and security since the minute she was born, so she will be ready to step right into her new home.
Athena was born into our rescue when Mama Lilly was brought into our rescue from an outdoor only pound with no adoption program in the middle of a scorching summer, it was discovered that she was expecting little ones. She was saved from a terrible fate and placed into a loving foster home where she was given the opportunity to give birth to her puppies in a safe, peaceful environment. She delivered three beautiful pups on 8-2-16; Apollo, Athena & Zeus. Lilly has been a wonderful and devoted mother to her three little pups and taught them many important lessons in their first months. Watch them starring in a couple videos at these links: https://youtu.be/jLjRnP1d1mQ and https://youtu.be/i-k-paVrkd4
Athena has been around children of all ages (including a preschooler and toddler), dogs of all sizes and ages, and a senior cat since the very beginning, and is extremely used to all. She is a very good listener and is and exceptionally fast learner. Athena has been the princess of the litter and is very efficient at putting her brothers in their place and getting what she wants. She LOVES to play (especially with her Mommy and 10-month-old foster sister). Athena is the puppy most wanting to be in the middle of the action and adores human attention. She is a fearless, confident pup and is ready to take on the world with her new perfect person/family!
