Moon's Story

Meet our resilient little firecracker! Moon, a 6 year old, 10 lb Miniature Australian Shepherd mix may have faced some hurdles, but she is officially ready to find her perfect forever home. Moon was surrendered by her owner who has had her since she was 9 weeks old due to a new baby in the home & schedule. Owner reports Moon is house trained, was free to roam but crated when needed and knows commands "sit" & " high five". Don't let her neurological condition fool you- she has difficulty using her back legs, but she doesn't let that slow her down for a second! She has a massiive zest for life and absolutely loves spending time outside in the play yard. Her favorite hobby is sitting proudly in the grass, checking out all the goings-on, and surpervising the yard. She definately appears house trained letting you know she needs to go out by barking in her kennel. When Moon first arrived at the rescue after being surrendered, she was understandably terrified. She was too overwhelmed to eat & would try to nip if anyone got too close. But with time, patience, & love, she has shown us what a brave girl she truly is! Because she can still be a little defensive when startled or pushed too fast, she will thrive best in a patient, adult-only home (or home with older dog-savvy teenagers) where she can continue to decompress and bond at her own pace. Because of her neurological condition, she needs a home with few obstacles or steps so she can navigate her space safely. A small securely fenced yard would be great to allow her to roam, explore & supervise the neighborhood at her own pace. Moon is current on vaccines, for more information or to meet moon please contact Tri-County Animal Rescue ( kennel license # 8704 )
