Atenea

Podenco · Female

The first time Atenea was seen was in February this year in a Benamejí. A couple of days later, a young man called to report an abandoned dog in the village. When volunteers went to find her, upon seeing her, their hearts sank. Her ears were bleeding, and she had been wandering the streets completely blind due to a severe eye infection. A volunteer took Atenea straight to the veterinary clinic, where she remained for several days receiving the urgent treatment that she needed to stabilise her and bring the infection under control. During that time, they worked closely with our partner GPAR to arrange a place for her at the shelter. Since arriving at the shelter, Atenea has adapted wonderfully to shelter life. She is full of life, playful, intelligent, and has shown incredible resilience despite everything she has endured. She loves going for walks with her canine companions and takes everything in her stride. Tractors, traffic, everyday noises, and meeting new people don't bother her at all. She enjoys making friends with every dog and every person she meets. Atenea is a quick learner. When she first arrived, she tended to pull on the lead, but with patience and gentle guidance she is learning to walk calmly and enjoys exploring the world by your side. As she is loose in the patio food is on hand 24/7 so she will need to learn a new routine, also this means she is not housetrained so will likely need some training. Now, Atenea has left her painful past behind. She is ready to start the next chapter of her life with a family who will love her, cherish her, and give her the forever home she has always deserved Atenea is neutered, vaccinated and will be tested for Mediterranean diseases. She is passported and available for adoption now. If you would prefer to make a one off donation, please click below
