Story
Got Luna from Metro East Humane Society in 2022, she is a fun and loving dog very energetic loves to go on runs and fits a active lifestyle. She loves to roll over for belly rubs is reasonably trained. Favorite past times are tug of war and fetch. She is not a fan of vehicles and would enjoy a more calm area. Great with other dogs and has healthy play habits, not sure on cats, good with older children not due to aggression but size. She is a larger dog around 115lbs and gets very excited and likes to nudge into things with her head and side to get rubs. Shes a great dog This is a last resort and wouldn't even consider this if I didnt have to. Luna is a little high maintenance with her large frame and double coat she loves playing with the water for bath time and needs a home that will love and be able to give her time and space to run. If your looking for a bigger dog for protection or just for a buddy Luna is amazing if your willing to put the work in with her

He is shy and may nip when meeting new people, but with patience and gentle reassurance, he warms up beautifully. But because of his fearfulness, he would do best in a home with no children. Bandito is the kind of dog who just needs someone willing to help him build his confidence so he can shine. He enjoys playing, staying active, and spending time with dogs his own size. Once he feels safe, his sweet, goofy charm comes out—and it’s impossible not to fall for him. Bandito is ready for a loving home that will give him the time, encouragement, and affection he deserves.  Please help us make room to save more homeless pets!!!
