My personality

My story

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

Hello there, I’m Athena, and I’m ready to find my forever home! 🌟 At 4 years old, I’m a 40-pound American Bully mix with a stunning white and tan coat that makes me quite the head-turner.

Life has been a little topsy-turvy lately—my previous owner had to bring me to the shelter on 11/20/2024 because they could no longer take care of me. It’s been an adjustment, especially since the shelter is so loud, but I’m starting to come out of my shell and show everyone how amazing I truly am.

I’m not spayed yet, but that will be taken care of before I join your family. My shots are all up to date, so I’m healthy and ready to go. I’m as sweet as can be—quiet inside and outside, and just a gentle little lady. I’ve got some tricks up my paw, too! I know how to sit, stay, and lay down (and probably more that you can teach me).

I’ve been friendly with other dogs, so if you have furry family members, I might fit right in. You can find me in cage #53, and my ID is 6361. If you’re looking for a sweet, well-mannered companion who will be loyal and loving, then look no further. I’m ready to be your best friend. Let’s meet soon! 🐾💖

Note - all the listings on Friends of Shelter Animals for Cobb are done by volunteers.

You can bring your pet to the shelter for a meet & greet with your potential new best friend. When inquiring about a cat or dog, please use THE ID NUMBER.
