Athena

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Athena is a young senior, around 9-10 years old. She is a very even-keel dog, past her puppy years and enjoying her golden years. She enjoys a good stroll around the neighborhood once a day, she doesn't pull hard on her leash but she rather enjoys walking at the very end of her leash so as to lead the way! She loves to patrol the yard and will do her best to keep the area squirrel free! Athena isn't much for toys, she instead is a foodie and loves to eat! But she's no fool, when you try to give her her daily meds she will quickly eat around the pill and just take the tasty stuff if you aren't careful! Athena does seem to bond more to women, in her foster home she will follow mom around the house and then steal foster dads spot in the bed at night. Athena has happily accepted pets from grandkids and neighbors while on a walk, so could easily live with older kids.<br/><br/>Athena has lived with another very easy going dog that was around her size, but we have a feeling she would be happiest as an only dog. She isn't a match for any younger, or higher energy dogs as she wouldn't appreciate the interruptions to her couch-potato ways and she can get pretty grouchy when dogs get in her space. She is unfortunately, not a match with cats as they bring out the "chase" in her! She takes some daily prescription meds for mobility and will need to continue these long term, but a good walk every day is keeping her happy and healthy! Athena is seeking an owner that isn't gone long days, she'll enjoy your company too much to have you away after all!<br/><br/>Athena's adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives plus a free basic obedience course at Cedar Run Company #2 in Hiawatha. Last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor pets only, altered and kept current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes a vet history check as well as a home visit. Please submit an adoption application for consideration through our website, www.Adopthope.org
