Athena

My story

🏛️ MEET ATHENA Goddess of Sass, Destroyer of Squeaky Toys 🐾 Are you ready to bow down to royalty? Because Athena isn’t just any dog — she’s a Central Asian Shepherd, two years young, and 100% majestic drama queen. Once found alone in a field, Athena has traded survival mode for diva mode. She’s finally learning what it means to be a dog: humans bring snacks, the TV is a loud and unnecessary invention, and toys need to be conquered. ✨ Athena’s Divine Decrees: • Other dogs? Hard pass. She’s not here to make canine friends — she’s here to reign as your one and only. • A people person (YES!) — Once she trusts you, she’s all in: affectionate, goofy, and full of personality. She’s blossoming with love, trust, and a growing appreciation for providing the fastest death in the west for any squeaker in range. • Big brains & big personality — She’s smart, inquisitive, and always ready to side-eye your life choices. • Pet me. Now. And again. Forever. Once the petting starts, it may never be allowed to stop. She’s not clingy — she’s just enforcing the royal Velcro dog decree. • Mealtime must be fit for Mount Olympus. Despite a life without regular meals, Athena now expects each dish to be prepared with the spirit of Gordon Ramsay himself. Kibble? Acceptable — only when topped with canned chicken, wet food, or whatever meats and veggies her loyal foster chefs can produce. Athena needs a dog-savvy, patient human who can set boundaries, provide structure, and worship her appropriately (treats and compliments encouraged). She's not for the faint of heart, but if you love a dog with opinions, she’ll be your fiercely loyal ride-or-die. 📍 Currently interviewing for her forever human and is accepting applications from worthy mortals.
