About Athena

Meet Athena, a Great Dane and Cane Corso mix weighing in at 101 lbs. This affectionate, playful, and active lapdog was surrendered due to her owner's military commitments. Shy yet talkative, Athena is great with children under five and has lived peacefully with two cats and two large dogs. She adores peanut butter, cuddling, and going on road trips. While she knows basic commands like sit, down, shake, and come, she does tend to walk tightly and pull on the leash. Athena is house-trained and makes her needs known by barking and pacing by the door. Ideally, she would thrive in a spacious home with a large yard to run around. Come meet Athena today; she’s ready to make a new friend.
