Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Athena, a sweet and gentle golden! She is 8 years old and enjoys the company of others. She is very good around other dogs and children as well. In fact, her current owners have three little ones and while she’s an excellent companion, they just don’t have the time to dedicate time to her with so many young children in the house. Athena is fully house and crate trained. However, she is an older dog and her personality tends to be more on the timid side. In new situations, she may be hesitant and nervous. Therefore, she will need a home where all members of the household will put in the work to help her feel comfortable. This includes establishing boundaries and reinforcing good habits. Once acquainted, her sweet and gentle nature will shine through. Her current owners would love to find her a home that can give her the attention she deserves.
