Athena

My story

Athena is a beautiful 4-year-old spayed female Chihuahua-Spaniel mix with the softest fur you can imagine—and an even softer heart. She came to us from Washoe County Regional Animal Services However, two puppies were rescued by another group. Understandably, Athena was terrified in the shelter environment, but Chihuahua Rescue stepped in to give her a second chance. Since arriving, Athena has settled in nicely and is slowly learning to trust humans again. Her gentle spirit shines through, and while she may be shy at first, with a little time and patience, her affectionate side begins to emerge. She’s the kind of companion who will quietly curl up beside you and melt into your arms. Athena is spayed, fully vaccinated, and microchipped—ready to find her forever home. If you’re looking for a sweet, tender soul to add to your family, come meet Athena at one of our upcoming adoption events. You won’t be sorry!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Athena, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
