Story
Athena is a 5-year old, very loving, intelligent and sensitive dog that I have taken in due to a friend's emergency situation. She is crate-trained and has basic training (sit, shake, lie down, etc.) In her settling-in phase she was reactive to other dogs but is now pretty ho-hum, has been to doggie day care previously and will be going again soon. I live in an apartment in the city and she has been a suburbanite, so kudos to her for the transition! She loves playing, walks, (She's a big-time sniffer!) and downtime in her crate. (She enjoys snoozing in her crate after a long walk.) She is also a big cuddler, and loves her "lovie-dovie" time. She is well-behaved, does not get on furniture, surf coffee tables, or jump up for food. One command and she is back in her crate. She seeks cues and is eager to please. She is a love, and needs a forever home. Athena comes with her crate, toothbrush and toothpaste, grooming brush, basketful of doggie toys, and is fully vaccinated.
