She is comfortable with both noise and quiet and enjoys having people around.She would do well in a home where she can safely explore and have opportunities for play and enrichment. Because she is still a young puppy and has not started going on neighborhood walks yet due to needing additional vaccines, her exercise and exploration currently happen at home.TrainingLuna is doing very well for such a young puppy!She is mostly house trained, although she can still have an occasional accident, particularly when she gets very excited after playing. Her foster family is continuing to work with her as she learns to recognize and communicate when she needs to go outside.Luna is also crate trained. She has made great progress with being left in her crate. During her first week, she had an accident when her foster family left for church. The following week, they left her with water, appropriate chew treats, and a toy—and she did wonderfully with no accident!She is learning:SitStayCalmNo biteLuna may initially protest when crated while her family is nearby, such as during mealtime. With gentle reminders to "calm," she settles down and adjusts.She has shown no food or toy resource guarding.Meeting New PeopleLuna is curious and excited when meeting new people.

Her spay is expected to be scheduled for November.Luna's Perfect FamilyLuna would love a family who will continue helping her grow into the wonderful dog she is already becoming.
