Athena is a bundle of joy with a personality that’s just as big as her heart. Friendly, outgoing, and always ready to make a new friend, she’s the kind of dog who quickly becomes the star of the room (and the couch). Athena has lived successfully with kids and truly enjoys being part of a family. She thrives on attention, affection, and the chance to show off her charming quirks. One of her most famous moves is her legendary “sploot” - stretching her back legs out behind her like a little frog when she relaxes. It’s equal parts adorable and hilarious. She’s also very proud of her “shake” trick… perhaps too proud. Athena delivers it with full dramatic flair, often lifting her paw with an over-the-top enthusiasm that seems to say, “Did you see that? I’m amazing, right?” If you’re looking for a dog who’s affectionate, playful, and guaranteed to make you laugh daily, Athena might just be your perfect match. She’s ready to bring her big personality, signature sploots, and award-winning handshake into a loving forever home.
