My personality

My story

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

Meet Athena, our lovable Pyrenees mix with a heart full of sweetness and a few quirky traits! She’s a bit on the timid side, preferring to quietly observe the world rather than dive right in. While she’s got an adventurous streak, especially when it comes to snow (she loves eating it!), she’s definitely not an outdoor dog—she’s all about the cozy comforts of being a beloved indoor companion.

Her instincts might say “chase” when it comes to chickens, and she might have some tension with cats (they’re just not her thing!), but with the right training and patience, she’s sure to thrive in a calm, structured home. What Athena truly wants is to be a pampered pet, loved and doted on, with no job to do—just a cozy spot to call her own and lots of belly rubs.

If you're looking for a sweet, low-maintenance, and snow-loving companion, Athena might just be the one for you

Because we are foster based, we ask for you to set up an appointment with us to see a particular animal. If you are interested in becoming a foster for us, contact us :)

More about this rescue

We started our rescue because there was not one in our area. We wanted to save dogs from kill shelters. More and more places are trying to go no kill, but there are so many animals out there desperate for new homes.
