Meet Luna, this girl has not had it easy. Her first owner passed away, she was then re-homed and once again she became homeless as her second owner was not able to care for her any longer. Luna is a happy and playful girl who has tons of energy and is looking for another shot at happiness. She knows how to sit, give paw and the command down. She entertains herself with toys and balls but would benefit greatly from consistent exercise. If you are a runner Luna is your girl. Luna has never been with kids and would do best in a home with older kids above the age of 16. She has been to play groups at Houndstown and done very well, she is however not a fan of cats. Luna just needs a chance to show you how much love he has to share. Luna is 65 pounds, 2 1/2 years young, up to date on vaccinations, spayed and micro-chipped and heartworm negative.
