LITTLE ATHENA - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / SHEPHERD / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Please contact ADOPTION (adoptdoggieharmony) for more information about this pet. Little Athena is a black beauty with velvety soft fur and perky ears. She could be a lab/shepherd mix, is 3 years old and around 50 lbs. When Little Athena arrived at the county shelter, she was in heartbreaking shape—likely used for breeding and then discarded. Scared and shut down, she curled up in her kennel, overwhelmed and unsure. She ended up on the euthanasia list—but fate had other plans. A kind foster stepped in just in time, and Little Athena's journey of healing began. Fast forward six months, and Little Athena has blossomed in her foster home. She's still a little shy with new people, but once she feels safe, her gentle, affectionate nature shines. She lives with another dog and absolutely loves playing and roughhousing—her playful side is irresistible! Little Athena would likely thrive in a home with another dog to show her the ropes and share the fun. She’s come a long way, but her journey isn’t over yet. Little Athena is looking for a calm, patient home where she can continue to grow in confidence and trust. With love and support, she will keep gaining confidence and be someone’s (yours?) loving and loyal companion.
