IMPORTANT: Athena is NOT at the shelter, so if interested in meeting her, please call us at 570-376-3646 so we can arrange a time.
Athena is looking for a place to land that's as soft as she is! This beautiful 2-year-old cloud lady who came to us over the summer is very loved in her current home, but she just needs a different environment to thrive. Typical of Great Pyrenees, she's protective of her people. We're hoping to find a quieter home that doesn't get ton of visitors, and a place where she can have a "job" to focus that urge to protect. She doesn't have experience with livestock, but she may be able to learn. However, she should primarily live inside with her people as a treasured family member.
Her current home says, "She is a beautiful dog and has learned to walk on a leash. She likes to be outside, but also likes to be inside cuddling on our laps. She has bonded with my two daughters (22yrs and 20yrs) and I."
Athena seems to have made friends with the cat in her home, and previously lived with other dogs, though she'll require a meet and greet with any potential dog siblings. Athena is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.
IMPORTANT: Again, Athena is NOT at the shelter, so if interested in meeting her, please call us at 570-376-3646 so we can arrange a time. Or, fill out an adoption application online at www.secondchanceas.org/adopt.

Interview
We will call your veterinarian and personal references. We'll also call you if we have questions or need more information.

We will approve or deny the application. You may be approved to adopt, but not necessarily the same animal you originally applied for.

Meet the Pet
This may be done before applying. You'll be asked to sign an adoption contract and to make a certain donation amount, rather than a set fee.
Additional adoption info
We are passionate about pairing animals in need with loving families who would best suit their individual needs. NOTE: You do not have to apply for a specific animal on your application. You can submit it as a "pre-application" for a certain size, age or breed of animal, and if approved, we can contact you if a possible match arrives at the shelter.
