About Luna

Luna is a vibrant, energetic girl who throws herself into playtime—she loves having room to sprint in the yard and never says no to a favorite toy. She’s leash trained, knows the basics, and once she warms up, her loyalty is unshakable. With Luna, you get a best friend who brings joy, laughter, and a wave of tail wags to every day. Left behind by her last family, Luna has learned to be wary around food and will resource guard—an understandable reaction shaped by her tough past. If you’re experienced with dogs and patient, there’s a path forward: the rescue includes free training and resources post-adoption, so you’ll have support. Luna absolutely needs a home with no kids or other pets, and a steady, empathetic person ready to give her a new start. Born in May, Luna is a Taurus—headstrong, loyal, and surprisingly cuddly when she relaxes. She’s house trained, spayed, and vaccinated, and looking for an adult-only home where she can finally settle in safely. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
