Story
Mission: Woof Pack Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit working to improve the health, welfare, and safety of Houston's dogs. Our organization was started by one dog mom on a mission to help those animals in need. Our goal is to find loving homes for abandoned, lost, forgotten or mistreated dogs from the streets of Houston and surrounding areas.
Currently being fostered in Houston, Tx with transport available out of state.
Athena's story: This sweet girl was with her one human for 9+ years of her 10 yrs, until he married and had a child within a short time. Athena did not adjust well to all of the changes and is now having to be rehomed in the senior years of her life when she should be chilling and cuddling. She has been boarded for the last 5 months at the same place that she had boarded over the years and had obedience training at, Man's Best Friend. While she loves the folks that are taking care of her, she deserves her own loving family, warm snuggly bed and a home to call her own. She has actually become more relaxed since the dynamic has changed and she is not in the environment where she knew there were issues and she didn't feel comfortable or safe any more. She needs a loving home and to be out of boarding. It's just not the same, even if you know the people there love you.
She is:
• hw negative
• neutered
• UTD on all vaccinations
• Microchipped
• She is good with other dogs, cats. Her best friend at Man's Best Friend is a male frenchie, who has also been there a while.
• potty trained
• crate trained
Athena is only 40 lbs and just wants to have her own home, her own warm bed and her own hoomans that love her as much as she wants to give love. She has had a lot of changes in a short time and the home she had for most of her life disappeared and she doesn't understand why. But one of a dog's greatest gifts is that they can love again, they can forgive and they live in the moment. She is a sweetheart, but she will need a little patience and time to decompress and learn to trust her new hoomans. She will do best with no small children around as she is a senior and has already gone thru so many changes. She's still got plenty of spunk in her and can't wait to find her furever home.
**Man’s Best Friend in Houston, partners with us for training and boarding and can give additional information on Athena's personality. Once we have an initial chat, the rescue will put you in contact with them. Please email us if you are interested in giving our sweet senior girl a loving home and we will notify MBF to give out info.
**Transport to Austin, Tx. or out of state, preferably northern states is available
