Story
I got Luna as a form of emotional support, but as it turns out, she is also in need of her own emotional support and needs a better environment fit for her emotional needs that I cannot give right now. She's like a sassy old lady at times, but she is overall a very chill dog; she rests a lot. She loves to run around outside, and she hasn't seemed to slow down physically. It takes her a minute to warm up to people, and she tends to be selective about it, but when she does open up, slowly but surely, she is very loyal and affectionate in her own little way!

Story
Hi! My name is Forest. If you are looking for an ideal companion, then look no further cause here I am! I am already housebroken, know sit, shake, and I love the outside! I enjoy snuggling with you if you will let me, and like a good romp in a fenced-in backyard. My favorite thing is being outside. I do not like to be crated, but I am such a good boy I don't need to be! My foster mom thinks I might have accidentally escaped from my people since I was caught chasing a deer. Since my prior owner could not be found, I find myself in need of a new home. My only requirement is a home with no small animals, (cats, rabbits, chickens, etc.,) and no small children. My ideal home would be with a stay-at-home worker who takes me on walks or lets me roam in the fenced yard. I need a strong alpha owner who is familiar with dog behavior.If you are looking for a new friend who will not require much training, just a bit of time to understand your expectations, I would love to meet you! And hey, I am even neutered so I can go home with you right away!If you're interested in learning more about Forest, please email the front desk at animalcenter@wake.gov with the subject line "Forest 251717" Primary Color: Tan Weight: 70 Age: 5yrs 4mths 4wks
