Eager to fill your life with love and joy, Athena is a 1-year-old, 16-pound small mixed breed with a long and low physique like a Dachshund. Filled with positive energy, this sweet little dog will brighten your life with her upbeat and fun personality. Currently in foster care after coming to AFRP from the Hitchcock Road Animal services as a shy stray, Athena has blossomed. She loves to play fetch, cuddle on the couch or go for walks in town or at the beach. She is very compatible with other dogs (unknown with cats) and she enjoys meeting people of all ages. Deemed the smartest foster dog ever, Athena has quickly learned the commands sit, down, roll over, and shake hands. She is house trained and she’s good on the leash. Athena is a wonderful match for anyone looking for a bright, happy companion dog. She should do fine wth gentle children over age 7. Meet and greets can be arranged once your online application has been received and approved.
