WARNING!: Athena may cause excessive smiling, random zoomies, and an uncontrollable desire to cuddle. This spunky Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix is currently living the foster life with Mastiffs to Mutts, and she has decided that her résumé should include: Professional Adventure Seeker; Certified Dog-Playing Enthusiast; Bell-Ringing House-Training Apprentice; Chicken Friendship Specialist (still in training); Full-Time Shadow & Part-Time Lap Dog . Athena LOVES playing with other dogs and is always ready for her next adventure. She’s learning that those funny feathered creatures called chickens are friends, not toys… and we're pretty sure she thinks they’re just oddly shaped dogs. She’s also working hard on house training and learning to use a bell to let her people know when nature calls. But after all that playing, exploring, and training? CUDDLE MODE: ACTIVATED Athena is a total shadow and will happily follow her person around like, “Where are we going? What are we doing? Can I come? What about now? Still going? Okay, I’ll just sit RIGHT HERE next to you.” She’s all puppy — goofy, curious, energetic, loving, and still learning the ways of the world. But when the day winds down, this big girl just wants to curl up with her humans and soak up some love. Athena is looking for her forever family! If you’re looking for a fun-loving, adventurous, dog-friendly puppy who comes with a built-in shadow and an impressive cuddle game, Athena might just be your girl. Please consider adopting or sharing her story so this sweet girl can find her forever home! Athena — big paws, big personality, BIG heart.
