My story

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

Meet Athena: Your New Best Friend & Professional Snuggler



Athena is more than just a dog; she’s a companion who communicates with her whole heart. While she’s had a bit of a wait finding her forever home, she hasn’t let it dampen her spirit. She is a master of "the nudge," a gold-medal fetcher, and a world-class cuddler just waiting for her person to find her.



The Fetch Queen



If you have a ball or a toy, you have a friend for life. Athena doesn't just play fetch; she makes it a team effort. She will:



• Bring the toy directly to your lap and sit politely, waiting for the game to begin.



• Give you a gentle nudge on the leg if you’re a little slow on the draw—just a sweet reminder that she’s ready!



• Sit perfectly on command the moment the word leaves your lips. She is as smart as she is playful.



Life’s Little Quirks



Athena is full of personality. One of her most endearing traits happens when the "battery" runs low. After a big day of play, she doesn't just lay down—she slowly walks over and simply topples over wherever she is. It’s her hilarious way of saying, "I’m officially out of juice!"



The Perfect Housemate



Athena is a dream to have indoors. She’s communicative and affectionate:



• The "Squeak": You’ll never have to guess when she needs to go out. Athena has a signature little squeak to let you know it’s time for a potty break.



• The Velcro Dog: When it’s time to relax on the couch, "personal space" isn't in her vocabulary. She will press her entire body against yours, making sure you feel the love (and the warmth) all evening long.



Athena’s Wishlist: A family who loves to play, a couch big enough for two, and a heart ready for a dog who will truly be your shadow.

More about this rescue

Here at Cross Your Paws Rescue, we are driven by a single goal; to save lives. We are doing our part in making the world a better place for all pets. Our decision to start a rescue is not one that we have taken lightly, it has come after years of volunteer work with other groups. Our goal is to make this world a place where starving, abused animals is a thing of the past. That shelters filled with dogs and cats waiting to be euthanized is unheard of. We want euthanasia to be something to help pets on their way to the Rainbow bridge not to end lives because of overpopulation. We vow to save every life that we can. Please help us make this world a better place for every furbaby.
