Start your journey together! Apply now. Athena is a beautiful German Shepherd Dog currently seeking a loving home in San Diego, CA. This energetic sweetheart adores attention and thrives on long walks with her favorite people. She is gentle and affectionate with children, though she would be happiest in a home with older kids who understand how to interact respectfully with dogs. Athena does not get along with cats and is dog reactive, so she should be the only animal in the household. She is housebroken and crate trained, making her a great companion for a family that can accommodate her needs. Athena was born with hip dysplasia, but it does not impact her lively spirit—her owner takes care to limit her running and jumping to keep her healthy and active. Her current owner is sadly rehoming her due to a child's severe allergies. Athena is searching for an adopter who will provide her with the love, routine, and companionship she deserves. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
