My story

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

ABOUT LUNA
Meet princess Luna, a 4-year-old Husky mix seeking a patient, experienced owner who understands her unique personality. Luna arrived at HAP last March, scared and unsure of the world around her. While we don’t know her full history, it’s clear she has endured some hardships. It took her a while to trust us, so she may need patience at your first meeting, but once she feels safe, her true self shines through! Luna is a sweet, playful, and wonderfully goofy girl with a classic Husky sassiness. She’s vocal about her feelings, loves playing with toys of all kinds, and enjoys chasing tennis balls. She thrives spending time outside sniffing, running, and playing. Once inside, she loves to curl up on her fluffy blankets and chew on her bones. Luna has a “less is more” quality, she’ll leave you wanting more, and she appreciates a slower, respectful approach when first meeting new people.

While Luna has been okay passing other dogs with redirection, she hasn’t made a canine friend yet and might prefer a home where she’s the pampered princess. Once she’s comfortable, she seeks and accepts affection, but she’ll make her boundaries clear if she needs space, and she escalates if her space isn’t respected. For this reason, Luna would do best with older, respectful family members who understand her communication style.
With patience, love, and understanding, Luna will become a loyal, loving companion who brings joy, laughter, and a little Husky mischief into your home!

**If interested in adopting Luna, please reach out to our trainer, Ben Touchton, at btouchton@hapde.org

Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
