Athena #60122115 {Adult Female/Terrier, American Pit Bull}
Athena is a beautiful girl who is learning to trust humans more and more every day. When she first arrived at the shelter, she was extremely timid, but thanks to the patience and dedication of our staff and volunteers, she has already made wonderful progress. ❤️
Athena is looking for a calm, adult-only home where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace. She would do best as the only dog in the home, and we are unsure how she feels about cats at this time.
