Here's what the humans have to say about me:
THIS IS A COURTESY POSTING ONLY - IF INTERESTED IN LUNA PLEASE CONTACT JESSICA RENDON AT: jirendon@aol.com
We rescued Luna in May 2015 from the L.A. County shelter. She and her sister got picked up by animal control in April and her sister got adopted by a rescue shortly after. Luna's time at the shelter was coming up. Because animal control picked them off the street, they don't know Luna's background but she definitely showed signs of being very abused. She is very skittish.
When we chose to adopt her, we knew we had quite a challenge on our hands because she was very scared, would shake, sometimes vomit, and most of the time pee when she heard ANY noise. Even after all of this, she has NEVER showed any aggression or aggressive behavior towards adults or children. She doesn't growl and barely even barks. She never barked, which we thought that maybe she couldn't but almost about 6 months later while playing with her she let out a little bark and has been barking ever since.
We got her help and training through Bark Busters, took her to Doggie Day Camps, and groomers all while taking time off from work and she got better!
We felt she was ready to have a companion so in March 2016, my husbands cousin gave us a dog. They both got along right off the bat. Our new dog really helped her gain confidence and learn how to be a dog. She has learned to trust us and others a bit more.
We walk her every morning and night. And play with her everyday for a good 10-15/ day. Just recently she found a way to jump over our wall. We fixed the problem by putting up chicken wire up but she started digging out sprinkler system. She is getting to be too much for us and since we work and travel often she has outgrown what we can give her. We are so proud of the dog she has become.
She is about 2 1/2 years old, about 35-40 lbs., has all her current vaccinations, spayed, house broken, gets along well with other dogs, non aggressive, loves to catch birds and loves to go on runs/walks. She gets along with children.
Overall she is a great girl and wish to find her a loving home with an active family that can give her the time and attention she needs.
Taking her back to the shelter is not an option for us but we can't keep her much longer so we are hoping to find her a home as soon as possible.
