About this Dog
Athena is a super sweet pup that was brought into MAD in late June. She is very friendly, curious and calm (for a Malinois, lol) in the house and is starting to show off her "zoomies" outside. She is good with dogs but a little nervous until she gets to know them a bit. She does okay with cats that stand their ground but will chase cats that run, so unless a cat is dog savvy Athen will not be a good fit. Within just days in her foster home she is following her foster around the house and even walks her out to the car and adores affection!Good with kids and dogs, Athena has been learning the ropes of family life and shows a nurturing awareness of her family members. When her foster's son was hurt, Athen would not leave his side She does flinch a little when a hand is reached over her head, but this reaction is quickly dissipating as she is shown gentle, kind interactions. And she loves to give "drive by" licks as she passes her people! It is a good thing that Athena has all of these nuturing tendancies, because we found out mid-July that she will be having babies in early August. Surprize puppies on the way! We found out that Athena is low HW positive and she has started her treatment. This will take 3-4 months and is almost always highly effective, with no long term health issues. More to come soon on this precious beauty.***********************************************To apply to adopt, please fill out the application by clicking on the Adopt button or ask for this dog to be added to your existing application.All MAD dogs come with a series 3 Fi Collar and a six-month subscription.
