Athena is a 5 month old German Shepherd Dog in tacoma, WA, who needs $850 for Surgical Amputation and Follow Up Appointment.

Sarah and Athena have been together ever since Athena was 7 weeks old- dumped on the streets. Sarah and Athena have been unhoused and living in a tent, but they have now been approved for housing and will have a place to call their own within the next week!

Athena got hit by a car in a scary incident and her front left elbow is broken, requiring amputation. Sarah would give her own leg to help Athena if she could. She’s worked nonstop since the incident and has raised $3300 of the $4000 needed for the surgery. She has a commitment from a veterinarian to do the surgery for a discounted rate and just needs a bit more help to get the surgery next week!

Athena is the world to her Mama. Sarah tragically lost her family and then her home. Athena is her only family, her heart, her soul and her reason to keep going through unimaginable hardship. They are inseparable—a dynamic duo that makes your heart soar when you see their bond! Athena is a precious, smart little lady who loves everyone she meets, and everyone adores her.

Sarah lost her job and has been unhoused, but they have finally gotten approved for the housing they have been hoping for! Their life together is blooming, now Athena just needs to be on the mend. She’s the best thing to happen to Sarah, her love, her whole world.
