You might have noticed BTRC foster Athena’s little pink briefs. Yes, she’s gone into heat which unfortunately means her spay appointment has been delayed. She doesn’t mind the addition to her wardrobe and has mastered how to pose in a way that’s worthy of a DOGUE cover! She also allows her foster mom to clean her with a warm cloth and never puts up a fuss.
Athena enjoys exploring the great white outdoors in her foster grandparents’ large backyard. ❄ She also loves fuzzy blankets and snuggles. Her foster mom says, “Overall Athena is a really fantastic house dog. She’s sweet and quiet and loves to be cuddled.”
A little nervous when left alone, Athena’s foster mom is working on leaving her for short periods of time and gradually increasing the duration. Athena’s confidence is slowly growing, and the doggy camera shows that she now quietly naps on the couch waiting for her humans to return home.
Athena has already started some routine vetting, including vaccines. While she waits for her spay and dental, she plans to snooze, snuggle and sweet talk her foster brother Oliver into some playtime.
Athena is being fostered in Halifax, NS and is not yet ready for adoption.
This little cutie is Athena, our newest arrival to BTRC. At 8 years old, she was surrendered by her owner, who could no longer accommodate her needs. Athena is now settling into her foster home, where she’s already winning hearts – her Boston Terrier foster brother seems to have developed quite the crush!
This friendly, playful girl experienced an eye injury in January, which appears healed, and there seems to be some limited remaining vision in that eye. We’ll ensure a thorough check-up to confirm her health and address any concerns. She’s not spayed, which we’ll take care of as part of her veterinary care.
Boxing Day is traditionally a day for sharing gifts, and what better gift could we receive than Athena? Stay tuned as we learn more about this sweet girl and prepare her for her forever home!
