Meet Athena Greek, an 11-week-old Boxer mix, weighing 12 pounds (as of 10/15/26). The GREEK litter have traveled from faraway lands and sailed many seas from Tennessee to find their way home. Your home.

UPDATE: Athena arrived today. She is settling in nicely and she has quickly learned that four- on- the- floor gets her attention, pets, and sometimes a treat. She is very snuggly and is already a favorite of her dog-savvy human foster brother. She is smart and brave, mastering the porch stairs on a couple of tries.

Athena loves to spend her days playing with her siblings and strategizing on how to win battles against foes. She is the Greek goddess of wisdom after all! But aside from her smarts, her charm will instantly make anyone fall in love and that's how it should be.

The Greek litter have only lived with their littermates, but should be good with other dogs. They haven't met kids or cats yet, but perhaps a welcome gift is in order! It may or may not be a Trojan horse. Alas, they'll still need help with puppy training but they have been doing well with crates. When the pups are old enough and ready for adoption, they'll be spayed/neutered.

Bring the excitement and love of the Greeks to your home today!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
