Meet Athena! This beautiful and super sweet girl was picked up stray by a Good Samaritan and brought to the shelter. Poor Athena, she arrived with overgrown nails, a terrible skin infection, demodex (a skin condition that causes terrible itching) and bilateral ear infections. She has resolved from the skin infection, demodex and ear infections. She is clearly in need of love and a new forever home to call her own. Athena is a pleasure to be around always with a tail wag to greet you and big lick to say hi. She loves going out for walks and to enjoy the sunshine, she has a blast playing with squeaky toys and balls, takes treats very gently and above all else she really just wants to be loved. We can’t say enough about this lovely lady. As it turns out Athena has some allergies so she is on a special diet that she may need for the rest of her life. She met a few dogs at the shelter and did very well so she will need to do a meet and greet if you have dogs in your home. Athena was uninterested in the cats, she literally sniffed them and walked away. She will do best with kids over the age of 12. She is estimated to be about 3 to 4 years young, 43 pounds, up to date on vaccinations, micro-chipped and heart-worm negative. If you are interested in meeting this beauty please go online and fill out our Matchmaker Adoption Application so we can arrange a meet and greet for you and Athena. You will not be disappointed.
Athena is currently in a foster home.
