My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

RESCUED when her owners passed away and their Hospice nurse took in both Luna(dob:~3/15/16..weighs 10lbs) and an unaltered male Min Pin(adopted), just 2 wks before Luna gave birth to her babies.

6wks after their birth:(07/15/17), Hospice nurse(lives in an apt & isn't allowed to have pets) contacted H4S CARes to see if we could help her in taking Luna and her 4(just weaned) pups and find them all RESPONSIBLE, LOVING HOMES...YES! OF COURSE! We had the room! 

Miss Luna, as best as we can tell, is a Jack Russell and Chihuahua X. She weighs just 14lbs and is a sweet little snuggle-bum. Smart, gets along well with all dogs, all sizes & energy-levels. Friendly, outgoing, happy, healthy and gentle. Not as hyper as your typical JRT; with decent exercise(long walks 3Xs day), she wouldn't require much room. 

WARNING: WILL JUMP/CLIMB 4' chain-link and 4' baby gate(that's the JACK in her)! 

SEEKING: active family with older, respectful kids OR active work-from-home couple. MUST be kept on-leash at all times, if not in a secured/stockade fence with wire 'dig barrier' at bottom/under constant supervision. Apartments OK, with commitment basic obedience training course & at least 3 walks daily(1>2miR/T, 3Xday) and an hr of 'play time' at dog park in small dog section=2X wk. That should keep her quite happy and contented! WANTS TO BE WITH HER PERSON, whenever possible...that's why we've learned that she will jump a fence.

Adoption fee: $225(includes spay, micro-chip, Parvo-Distemper, Bordatella and 1 yr Rabies vaccinations, parasite- free, current on monthly heart worm & flea/tick prevention, new Martingale collar and 6'leash, current health certificate (issued within 3 days prior to transport), all medical paperwork from day#1 with Howlin4Spirit, 1/2 gallon bag of current dry food, beef knee cap bone.  

Luna should be fully recovered from her spay surgery and ready to go to her fur-ever home on SAT/SEPT 30th.

Where there is a scent hound or guardian breed being considered for adoption, & in homes where children reside or will be visiting, a secured(not electric) fenced-in yard is required.
