My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

ATHENA

This sweet girl, along with her brothers, have spent much of their short lives in the shelter. You would never know it though. This girl is the total sweetheart package! She is a perfect compact size and just under 40 lbs. She is playful, sweet, loving and gets along very well with other dogs. She is fully house trained and has earned the privilege of being left out alone for a couple of hours without incident. Athena is a happy girl. She loves to play, but she also loves to sidle up next to a human for cuddles. We are huge fans of Athena's and are so happy we saved her!

HIGHLIGHTS:
- House Trained
- Good with other dogs
- Playful
- Loves Cuddles

Her foster mom shared, "We don’t have kids but just from her temperament, I think she would be a great family dog. Just wants to be with us and seems to want to just make us happy."

We do not provide DNA testing which is the only way to know with certainty which breeds are in her genetic background. Our best guess is that she is Whippet mix. We can't guarantee size at maturity, but we think she will be medium sized when full grown.

We highly recommend training classes for all of our dogs to get everyone off to a great start. Training recommendations are available.

Our adoption fee is $400 which includes age-appropriate vaccines (such as Distemper, Bordetella, Parvo, and Rabies), worming, microchipping, and health exam. Discount vouchers for training, grooming, and similar dog-related products and services are provided.

More about this rescue

Our approach to the adoption process is friendly, warm & understanding. We care about our dogs and we are thankful for our applicants.

We strive to be the breath of fresh air, the rebels who rock the boat. A rescue with a heart and soul dedicated to placing homeless dogs in loving homes.

We work with local businesses to secure discounted prices for our adopters on dog related services such as grooming, training, boarding & daycare. Our volunteers create the handmade beds we send home with each dog and we provide useful resources in our Adoption Kits.
