About
Athena
Athena is a tender and soulful girl patiently waiting for the right person to discover the loyal companion she’s ready to be.
At first, Athena can be a little shy. New people and unfamiliar surroundings might make her cautious, but don’t let that quiet exterior fool you. Once she feels safe and secure, she quickly blossoms into a warm, cuddly presence, especially around men, with whom she tends to bond easily. One of her favorite things in the world? Pats and cuddles. She absolutely loves gentle strokes and being close to someone she trusts. There's nothing she enjoys more than curling up next to you and soaking in the affection.
Athena thrives in a peaceful and predictable environment. She’s looking for a calm home where she can enjoy life at her own pace. Because of her preference for quiet, she would do best as the only pet in the home, no other dogs or cats, and no small children. This allows her to feel safe and truly relax, giving her the space she needs to open up and show her full, loving personality.
Whether it’s lying quietly by your side while you read or leaning in close for a cuddle session, Athena is a devoted companion who brings a sense of peace and comfort to those around her. She would make a wonderful match for someone looking for a low-key, deeply affectionate canine friend.
Athena is a Desexed Female, 2 year old, Black and White, American Staffy.
