FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED – ATHENA (NY AREA) Athena has been in protective custody at the shelter for over a year... and she is finally free to go. Athena desperately needs a foster or adopter. She is losing hope and shutting down in the shelter environment. It’s loud. It’s stressful. It’s constant. The staff takes good care of her — but it’s not a home. It’s not a couch. It’s not a family. She has waited long enough. A year is an eternity for a dog to watch the world go by from a kennel. She previously lived with other dogs but due to her kennel stress we are recommending no other animals until she has a chance to decompress. 5 year old Boxer Loves playing fetch Equally happy curled up beside you Passed her behavioral assessment (no food or toy guarding) Best in a home with kids 12+ (no kid history) Spayed, fully vaccinated & microchipped If you are near NYC and can foster or adopt, please step forward.
