Mama Bear (Athena) 

Mama Bear was a stray (who’d recently had pups, w scars on her ears and other areas)  We have given her all the time she needed to decompress and be comfortable in our home and she has come a long way!  She is the MOST affectionate girl ever, is very special and will be a heart-dog to someone lucky enough to adopt her!  She holds no grudges for her past and deserves a very loving home where she knows she is safe and loved!    

·Loves everyone she meets!   She is SUUUPER excited when meeting someone new, (lil overzealous) but we’re working on her jumping to greet  


Doesn't realize how strong she is (likes to “paw” or put paw on you or your chest
Needs to be the only animal in the home (no other dogs or animals)
Self-entertains with toys and bone chews (hasn't found a toy she can’t destroy yet) 


·Naps & cuddling with soft blankets are one of her fave past times


Is "obsessed" with food/ begs relentlessly (If ignored, she will eventually leave you alone)
Zooms to her crate, and sits/waits whenever it's time to eat, (or a frosty paw/any special treat)
Does this adorbable, impatient "pitter patter" with her paws, whenever she's waiting for something
Loves car rides (except when you stop, she starts whining)
Is very treat/food motivated on walks/ignores whatever is around
Is not a fan of baths but is good once in there- (even for her medicated shampoo baths) Sometimes hides under bed, or behind bed pillows
Has some ongoing ashy skin/ itchy issuesthat we are trying to figure out
Seems to have a very sensitive stomach and probably should be on a special diet/treats (We are still trying to figure out this issue)
VERY EASILY EXCITABLE (gets amped up)  Because of this, we'd reccommed older kids past toddler age                                                                          (But we're pretty sure she'd  love all aged kids)
*Crate trained* (goes in it on her own at times) * House trained *Some commands* knows sit & paw  (working on her impatience)
