My story

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

Meet Athena!
-2 year old female husky
-Owner surrender that came in after her previous guardian could no longer care for her
-Favorite activities: hiking, playing fetch and playing with other dogs
-Has befriended other dogs at the Shelter and enjoys to do big dramatic playbows and then zooms around with her canine friends
-Favorite toys are squeaky toys
-History of chasing cats in her previous home so a feline free home is recommended
-Noted to be house trained in previous home
-Already knows “sit” and “down”

Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
