My story

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

🏛️ MEET ATHENA
Goddess of Sass, Destroyer of Squeaky Toys 🐾

Are you ready to bow down to royalty? Because Athena isn’t just any dog — she’s a Central Asian Shepherd, two years young, and 100% majestic drama queen.

Once found alone in a field, Athena has traded survival mode for diva mode. She’s finally learning what it means to be a dog: humans bring snacks, the TV is a loud and unnecessary invention, and toys need to be conquered.

✨ Athena’s Divine Decrees:
• Other dogs? Hard pass. She’s not here to make canine friends — she’s here to reign as your one and only.
• A people person (YES!) — Once she trusts you, she’s all in: affectionate, goofy, and full of personality. She’s blossoming with love, trust, and a growing appreciation for providing the fastest death in the west for any squeaker in range.
• Big brains & big personality — She’s smart, inquisitive, and always ready to side-eye your life choices.
• Pet me. Now. And again. Forever. Once the petting starts, it may never be allowed to stop. She’s not clingy — she’s just enforcing the royal Velcro dog decree.
• Mealtime must be fit for Mount Olympus. Despite a life without regular meals, Athena now expects each dish to be prepared with the spirit of Gordon Ramsay himself. Kibble? Acceptable — only when topped with canned chicken, wet food, or whatever meats and veggies her loyal foster chefs can produce.

Athena needs a dog-savvy, patient human who can set boundaries, provide structure, and worship her appropriately (treats and compliments encouraged). She's not for the faint of heart, but if you love a dog with opinions, she’ll be your fiercely loyal ride-or-die.

📍 Currently interviewing for her forever human and is accepting applications from worthy mortals.

Athena’s adoption fee is $325 and includes her spay, microchip, vaccines, dewormers and training.

More about this rescue

Since our formation in early 2013, we have helped save thousands of cats and dogs throughout Idaho from neglect, abuse, and death. Many of our rescues come from the Burley Idaho Animal Shelter where PAWS has transformed what was once a high kill facility to a shelter where every adoptable animal gets a second chance! PAWS also takes in stray pets from all over Idaho including Twin Falls, Boise, Nampa, and Caldwell. We work our very hardest to respond to every call for help!

PAWS Rescue, Inc. saves all breeds of cats and dogs of all ages as well as animals who have been hit by cars, shot, abandoned, abused, and neglected.

Rescued animals are placed in loving foster homes or transferred to other no kill partner facilities giving them a chance to find the perfect forever home. Our efforts give these deserving animals a second chance at a happy life.

Every animal receives veterinary evaluation and care, including spay/neuter and vaccines, as well as treatment for any other medical issue they may have. No animal is ever euthanized due to expense.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about PAWS Rescue, Inc. !
