Athena is waiting for a forever family ❤️ Apply for adoption 🎂 +/- 3 months ⚖️ +/- 12kg adult ⚧️ Female 📍In Romania ✔️ Cats ✔️ Dogs ✔️ Children 🏡 House / Apartment 🐶 Who is she... Athena is a 3-month-old female puppy who should weigh 12kg as an adult. She still has her whole life ahead of her, she should be in full discovery of the world, running after toys, making mischief and enjoying her childhood. But at the shelter, Athena doesn't really have the heart for partying. She looks sad, as if she had already lost some of the carefree nature that puppies should naturally have. She waits, observes and hopes that maybe one day someone will show her that life can also be beautiful. She is currently safe at the shelter.

About ATHENA

What life with ATHENA looks like

ATHENA is a puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Sans Colliers in France.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting ATHENA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about ATHENA?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Sans Colliers handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw ATHENA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt ATHENA if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Sans Colliers will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is ATHENA already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if ATHENA isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Sans Colliers early rather than rehoming privately; they know ATHENA and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
