Athena is looking for an amazing forever home. She is currently in a foster home with a wonderful foster dad. We would love to find a single or adult couple for her. Athena has excellent house manners and is very well behaved. Her foster dad works full time so she would do well with a working adopter or one that is retired. Athena is at a healthy weight and really loves going for walks in the evening with her foster dad. She has lived with other dogs, but we know she would love to be an only dog in the household. Athena has never lived with cats before, so, a cat free home is best. Athena is about 6-7 years old. She absolutely loves to ride in the car. Athena is also great in the bath! She loves the warm water and blow dryer! Athena also loves her very comfortable bed. She sleeps on her bed right next to her foster dad at night. If you would like to adopt Athena, please visit our website and apply today! PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this biography is based on observations from the current foster home. In no way can we predict future behavior and or temperament as individual household dynamics vary greatly, and are impacted by the experience and leadership of those within the home. Please fill out an application to meet me at http://www.washingtongsd.org/application.html The adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract.
