Athena has been adopted! 09-02-2006

Athena will make a wonderful family dog! She was tested on her very first night with her foster mom, stopping to visit a toddler friend. She was patient and kind with the little guy, putting up with smacks on the rump and a bit too much of a pinch on her ear.

Athena gets along wonderfully with other dogs - she also fit right into her foster pack, running and ripping with the youngest members. She slept peacefully in a crate without a peep.

Athena does have a lot of youngster energy and will benefit from daily active walks along with some obedience work. We think she's just about two years old - she's a classic beauty with a curly tail

The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible when permitted by law. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
