About Athena

Athena is a young, female German Shepherd mix with a lot of energy and a gentle disposition. She's a smart girl who usually comes when called and pays close attention to her handler. However, she does have a short attention span and can be easily distracted – a quick "squirrel!" moment can divert her focus! Athena is not the pushy type and prefers a more gentle approach.

Ideal Home

Athena thrives with plenty of exercise to keep her happy and engaged.

Ongoing Health

Athena is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations.

Training & Support

While Athena is attentive, her short attention span means training will require patience and creative methods to keep her engaged.
