My story

Athena is a super sweet and loving dog who brings joy to everyone she meets. With her friendly demeanor, she is a cuddle bug who enjoys being around people and other pets. Likes: Playing with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds Interacting with cats (she loves to play with them!) Spending time with babies and toddlers Going for car rides Visiting dog daycare, where she has always been friendly with other dogs Enjoying the snow and cold weather Dislikes: Prefers to sleep on the ground or her dog bed at night, as she tends to get hot Ideal Home:Athena would thrive in a home with a medium to large yard and a secure 6-foot fence (this is non-negotiable). She needs either another pet to play with or an owner who can provide regular walks and exercise. A clean and organized environment is essential, as she may get into things like kids' toys, trash, or food left on counters. Special Notes: Athena is spayed and has no health complications. She is not picky with food and has been well taken care of throughout her life. She has lived with various pets and children, making her a great family companion. As a husky mix, she thrives in cold weather and absolutely loves the snow! If you’re looking for a loving companion who is great with kids and other pets, Athena might be the perfect fit for your family! (Athena will come with the following supplies...Collar & Leash; BarkBox toys (2 boxes); XL Kennel. These supplies are worth $230!) If you are interested in adopting, please visit our website and complete an adoption application at www.elpasocountycanine.org/adopt ##2529140##

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.
