My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Athena's story will break your heart. She started as a puppy with Tina Day's Service Dog Program and when she graduated, she was paired with a Military Veteran who needed her special skills. She was with him for a period of time and when he lost his home, he gave her to another military person and subsequently their treatment of her went downhill. The last placement took her to a veterinary hospital to have her put down but a very kind Client of the Hospital stepped in and saved her. She then reached out to Tina Day who is committed to helping us find her a home and is willing to retrain Athena at no cost.
Everyone who has met this beautiful girl loves her. She is thin and we are working on putting weight on her. She is located at our Facility in Idaho but for the right application, we will move her. When she looks at you, she is looking into your soul. She is exceptionally smart; knows her commands and walks well on a leash. She does have some baggage considering what she went through but with love and patience, we are know that she will gain her confidence. Athena is 7 years old, UTD on shots, Heartworm Negative and on prevention and spayed.
