Athena Boxer Newport, NC

Meet this cutie named Athena! She’s such a happy girl with a zest for life. She came in mid June 2021 and is patently awaiting her “gotcha day”! She’s a young pup but smart & will need a home that will continue to work with her on basic puppy manners/training as all pups need to be able to mature into even more amazing adult dogs. She’s a great sized girl who is 8 months old, current on shots, and so ready to have a loving FOREVER home to call her own. Maybe you can make her dreams come true. Visit with Athena today and adopt her into your heart and home!
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5 and Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
