Luna's Story

Meet Luna!<br/><br/>Luna’s story began as a devoted mama who gave absolutely everything she had to keep her four babies alive. When she came to us from the Lancaster shelter, she was emaciated, sick and riddled with worms, while somehow her puppies were thriving. She had poured everything she had into them. Today, Luna is healthy, spayed, approximately two years old and around 22 pounds.<br/><br/>Luna is an incredibly sweet, sensitive girl who has made tremendous progress in foster care. She started from a much more fearful and anxious place than most dogs, but her foster family says she is a completely different dog than she was just a few weeks ago!<br/><br/>She is enjoying more car rides, patios and new experiences. While she can still be nervous, she is recovering much more quickly and learning to relax and play. She happily sleeps in her crate and now walks into it on her own at bedtime. Being crated when her people leave is still difficult, so she will need a patient family willing to continue building her confidence. Her ideal world would be to find a family that is home a lot, as she is so devoted that she loves to be around her people as much as possible.<br/><br/>Once Luna feels comfortable, her personality really comes out! She is playful, affectionate and sometimes vocal - she loves “talking” to her foster family but gets adorably shy when the camera comes out.<br/><br/>Luna may also benefit from having a confident, playful, dog friendly dog in her new home to help show her the ropes. What she needs most is patience, consistency and someone who will celebrate every little victory along the way.<br/><br/>Luna gave everything she had to her babies. Now it’s finally her turn to have someone give that same love and devotion back to her!
