Athena is an eye-catching Australian Shepherd mix, easily recognized by her striking mismatched eyes—one blue, one brown—and a distinctive half tail. She recently found herself at the shelter after a family who cared for her could no longer keep her. While she may seem timid at first with new people, Athena loosened up nicely at a recent Petco outing and proved she can warm up to a crowd in the right environment. Her ideal home would be with someone patient and understanding who can help her blossom at her own pace. Athena does well with dogs and children, which makes her a good fit for many families looking for a gentle addition. She's fully vetted and ready for her new start in Frenchburg, KY.
