Meet Lua, a gentle 1.5-year-old girl on a quest to find her forever family. Weighing 35 lbs, Lua is a wonderful medium size, radiating calmness and sweetness. She gets along well with dogs, cats, and is gentle with children, showcasing her kind nature. Lua has a moderate energy level; she's happy to go for walks and play with other dogs, yet she also loves to relax at home with her people. Lua’s story is heartwrenching. She was found abandoned on the streets, waiting where her owners left her, hoping they would return. Thankfully, Lua was rescued by SOS Animal Welfare, and her sweet spirit has remained intact despite her past. She's affectionate, trusting, and eager to connect, displaying a remarkable resilience. Intelligent and food-motivated, Lua responds well to positive reinforcement. Continued training will help her build confidence and strengthen the bond with her new family. She can thrive with another friendly dog, which would help her adjust to a new environment, but she could also be a loving companion in a home as the only dog with a patient adopter. Most importantly, Lua yearns for a family of her own after waiting too long. Although she has an opportunity to travel to New York, she can only go if she has a confirmed adopter or foster-to-adopt home waiting for her. Lua is already spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and has received all necessary health care. The time has come for her to stop waiting. If you feel Lua could be the missing piece in your family, consider giving her a chance. Ready to make a difference? Apply today!
