About Luna Special Needs Great

Luna is a resilient Great Pyrenees with a heartwarming spirit. This young girl has been a frequent visitor at the shelter due to her owner's inability to contain her, but she has truly adapted to her circumstances. Although she has a Grade 4 patella luxation affecting her back leg, she refuses to let it hold her back. Luna is about two years old, full of life, and loves to play with other dogs. She's also good with cats and great with kids. After being treated for heartworm, Luna cannot undergo surgery to correct her leg until she tests heartworm-free. Despite her challenges, she is crate trained and housebroken. Her future home should provide a securely fenced yard, as Great Pyrenees are known for their independent nature and roaming tendencies. Adopting Luna means ensuring she’s an inside pet with supervised outdoor time, and that all resident pets are up to date on vaccines. The adoption process includes a few essential requirements, including applicants being over 25, owning their home, and having a solid vet care history for their pets. If you’re looking to adopt a loyal companion who will thrive with your care, consider Luna—she’s ready to make a loving addition to your home. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
