Athena

Athena is a beautiful girl who is going to make a loyal companion in the right home. She and her brothers were dumped at the shelter at 4 months old with no mother or father. Underweight, scratched up, confused and hopeless, we simply had to help. It’s clear she had to fight for food during her short life and is just learning that she does not have to guard herself and her food anymore.
In her foster home, Athena is a very sweet & silly girl. She loves to sleep and lay around the house. When in the backyard, she gets small bursts of energy & likes to play but otherwise enjoys watching others run around while she receives pets. She loves companionship & enjoys being near her fur-buddies or within petting range of her person. She can get shy with new things, but warms up quickly & takes comfort in seeing her fur-friends doing things with her. She is very alert & will perk up if she hears different noises or even barking on the TV. She is smart & food motivated. Her potty training is going well & goes outside on a regular schedule. Once she warms up to you, she is a loyal dog and will want to stick by your side.
As an Armenian Gampr, we expect she will be over 100 lbs full grown. Armenian Gamprs are known for their gentle nature with families and livestock, but also their strong protective instincts and independent nature. They are intelligent, loyal, and fiercely protective of their family and territory, but can be wary of strangers and require early socialization. While not naturally playful, they are calm and steady, making them excellent guardians.
