Luna's Story

Luna (9 yrs old) is a beautiful senior Chihuahua girl looking for the soft landing she deserves.<br/><br/>Her story starts with a heartbreak: several people watched a car pull up to a park, put Luna out, and drive away. A Good Samaritan contacted one of our volunteers, who was able to catch her. We searched for an owner, but no one ever stepped up — she wasn't microchipped and she had no ID tag.<br/><br/>Luna needed vet care right away: she had a large ulcerated mass on her tail. She has had her surgery, and she is so much more comfortable now.<br/><br/>Luna is hard of hearing and has limited vision — but please don't let that fool you. She's smart as a whip: she mapped out her foster home in no time and gets around beautifully. She just needs a calm, patient home that will let her learn the layout at her own pace.<br/><br/>Through it all, Luna has stayed exactly who she is — sweet, devoted, and loving. She is very well behaved, quiet, house trained, and dog friendly. She just wants a person to adore and a cozy spot right next to them.<br/><br/>Luna is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped, and she has had her teeth cleaned.<br/><br/>Luna is also on a healthy diet of nutritious food to help her reach a healthy weight — and she's doing great.<br/><br/>Luna needs a foster OR a forever home within the next 2 weeks. She is in a temporary foster home, and her foster has to travel soon. Even fostering her for a little while would be a lifeline.<br/><br/>Her ideal home is a calm home where she can be close to her person.<br/><br/>Don't let "senior" fool you — small dogs often live into their late teens, so at (9 yrs old) Luna still has so much love left to give. She was thrown away once. Let's make sure she spends the rest of her life cherished.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt or foster at dexterfoundation.com. Southern California adoptions only.
