Athena Needs A New Home!!
Athena is a 2-year-old Pitbull/Cattle Dog/Chow mix. She's a very sweet dog that loves other people and dogs. She's a very high energy dog though so she may have too much energy for some dogs or people. She needs to be an inside dog, and I can't provide that right now. Since she's been outside, she does have fleas and I'm in the process of deworming her. She was housetrained at one point, but she will most likely need to be housetrained again. She's a very quick learner though so that shouldn't be too hard. I'm currently in the process of putting weight back on her as she was left in the care of a family member for a short period and was not properly taken care of.
