Athena's Story
Meet Athena and Loki<br/>Athena and Loki are beautiful 6-year-old red merle Australian Shepherd siblings searching for a loving forever home together. These two have recently experienced a lot of change in their lives and are now looking for a fresh start with a family who will give them the stability, patience, and love they deserve.<br/>Athena and Loki share a close bond and complement each other beautifully, which is why they are looking for a home together.<br/><br/>Athena<br/>Athena is the quieter and more sensitive of the pair. She can be shy and cautious when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, her sweet personality begins to shine. During her evaluation, she steadily grew more comfortable and even sought affection by sitting on someone’s feet and gazing up with adoring eyes.<br/>Athena will thrive with patient adopters who understand that trust takes time. Since she previously lived a country lifestyle with the freedom to roam outdoors, she has very little leash experience and is still learning confidence with leash walking. Despite that, she showed encouraging progress during her evaluation. With consistency, gentle encouragement, and enrichment, Athena has all the potential to blossom into an incredibly devoted companion.<br/><br/>Their Ideal Home<br/>Athena and Loki are looking for a home that understands the needs of herding breeds and is committed to giving them both the physical activity and mental enrichment Aussies thrive on. Their ideal home would be in a quieter setting, as they are accustomed to country life and a more peaceful environment.<br/>They would especially love a family who enjoys spending time outdoors and tossing a ball around with them. Like many Aussies, they enjoy engagement and interaction with their people and will thrive when included in daily activities.<br/>These two have been through tremendous change, but despite it all, they remain loving, resilient dogs who are ready to bond deeply with the right family.<br/>If you are looking for a pair of loyal companions and are willing to give them the time and understanding they deserve, Athena and Loki may be the perfect addition to your home.<br/><br/>Apply at https://aussierescueofthemidatlantic.org/applications-2/
