Athena von Apelern is a stunning 8-9 month old black sable German Shepherd, perhaps with a touch of something else. A beauty who turns heads with her striking looks, Athena came from a foster home. It was hard for her foster to give her up. She felt she was perfection -- great with her dog, housebroken and even fine being carried like a baby. We know she will quickly win you over too with her loving, silly personality. She's a very social sweetheart who will happily shower you in kisses, and she loves other dogs as well. Super treat-motivated, she knows how to sit, and is so eager to please that she'll likely pick up new commands with ease. Of course Athena is enthusiastic about getting out for walks, and happily greets people and pups alike. She fits in easily in doggy playgroups and has a blast playing with her newfound friends, with a gentle play style. She'd love a pup playmate in her forever home, but says no thank you to kitties. If you're looking for a beautiful, loving and fun companion who will brighten your day and is always ready for the next adventure, Athena is your girl!
