My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Athena is a beautiful female pit bull terrier mix, weighing around 40 pounds. While her exact age is unknown, this lovely girl has been at the shelter twice. She was first surrendered in February 2024 due to her owner moving, then adopted in April 2024. Unfortunately, she was returned to the shelter on October 30, 2024, because she didn’t get along with the other female dog in her home. Athena has lived indoors but needs a patient owner to help her with potty training. A smart girl, Athena has already learned commands like `sit` and `kennel.` If you`re looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little guidance, Athena may be the perfect match for you!
