About Luna

Meet Luna! This spirited nearly five-year-old American Pitbull Terrier mix is currently thriving in Amherst, MA. Luna embodies a joyful blend of goofy affection, outdoor enthusiasm, and snuggly sweetness, showcased in her beautiful tan coat adorned with white accents. Weighing in at around 65 pounds, she has a big personality to match her size. Her gentle heart shines through, especially when she's close to her favorite humans. Luna has a zest for life that includes outdoor adventures—think walks, hikes, fetch, and even swimming. After all the fun, she looks forward to winding down with cozy snuggle time. She gets along well with new people, is wonderfully gentle with children, and is comfortable cohabitating with cats. With formal obedience training under her collar, Luna knows a host of commands including sit, heel, lay, and come. She is house-trained, leash trained, and she handles short periods alone without anxiety. She enjoys car rides and follows a daily routine that keeps her well-fed and exercised. It's worth noting she experiences seasonal allergies that can lead to sneezing and red eyes, but nothing that holds her down! While she is friendly, Luna can be more cautious around unfamiliar dogs due to past experiences. A home without unknown dogs would be ideal, though she currently shares her life with Freya, her canine best friend. They have a special bond, and if possible, adopting both would be a fantastic opportunity for these two buddies. An active household with a fenced yard or an equally dedicated commitment to daily exercise would suit her perfectly. Could Luna, and maybe Freya, be your next adventure-loving snuggle companions?
