Biography
Athena is a very loyal, energetic 9 yo chocolate lab/Pit bull mix who loves her people, so long as they are grown ups. She is aggressive to all dogs and bicycles, and loves all humans except children that live with her. She loves her walks three times daily and has no medical issues. She also loves children, so long as they are strangers. (Litter mate syndrome, perhaps?) Some arthritis in her hind legs, she takes a med and a supplement daily, can provide a months worth with adoption. Up to date on vaccines and vet visits, spayed.
Athena can live with no dogs, unless with an experienced owner and a very "top" Boss dog. No kids, unless equally experienced bossing dogs around.
Yard preferred, not required. She has done training and responds very well to treats, still does some pulling on walks, and still lunges for dogs without firm behavior command. A seasoned foster could probably get her behavior immaculate immediately, but we are not experienced with dogs or rescues.
The most important for us is a good fit, we'll charge no fee. We are in no hurry, we want to help you build the right family with this puppy (she's a puppy at heart). You can reply via this website, but text is best! -- two oh six 245 five nine one four.
