Athena is a large German Shepherd Dog in San Diego, CA, looking for a new home due to a family child's allergies. With a spirited, affectionate personality, she soaks up attention and thrives on long walks. Athena is very people-focused and gets along well with children, though she'll do best with older kids who understand how to interact gently with dogs. She does not get along with cats and is dog reactive, so she needs to be your only pet. Athena is housebroken and crate trained. She was born with hip dysplasia, but it isn't slowing her down—she still has plenty of energy, just needs to avoid strenuous running or jumping. Athena will make a loving companion for an attentive household without other pets. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
