Luna's Story

Meet Luna, a 12-year-old mini red tri Aussie who is not ready for the old folk's home. Luna has a little arthritis but is otherwise spry and playful and would like to find a home where she can make the most of her golden years. <br/><br/>Emulating Dorothy of the Golden Girls, Luna's pushy and opinionated, but also kind and ready for fun and adventures. She's game for playing ball, taking walks, and maybe even learning a new sport like K9 Nose Work or barn hunt. Otherwise she's happy to just chill and hang out.<br/><br/>Little old lady that she is, Luna can be crabby with dogs that pester her so she'd do best either as a single dog or with a dog that can read her (clear and appropriate) communications and give her space. <br/><br/>In addition, kids stress her out and she would not be suitable for a home with children younger than high school age. She's just not the grandmotherly type. <br/><br/>Luna isn't crazy about crates, but she has excellent house manners -- no accidents, chewing, or getting into stuff. However, she's not above occasionally lolling around on the sofa. Girl likes her comforts!<br/><br/>She also likes her groceries and needs someone who can help her watch her waistline as she needs to drop a few pounds for optimal health.<br/><br/>Overall she's a fun little dog looking for the right person or people to share her senior years with.<br/><br/>Additional details:<br/><br/>Needs a fence: Probably not after she realizes you are her person. <br/>Good with cats: Unknown<br/>Good with dogs: Yes if they don't pester her or try to steal her stuff when she's using them (toys, chews, etc,)<br/>Good with kids: No young kids<br/><br/>All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers. We need an approved application on file to set up a meeting with a dog you might be interested in. You can find our application at www.aussierescuemn.com. All dogs have an adoption fee of $400 plus MN sales tax. We pride ourselves on matches that are awesome for both the dog and your family. Aussie Rescue of MN is here for support, advice and as a safety net for our dogs for the rest of their lives.
