Meet Pach's adorable Adoptable Pet of the Week, courtesy of the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter. This week's furry friend is Lilly Luna.

Lilly Luna is a 6-year-old cattle dog/Akita mix. She was brought to the shelter by her former owner because they were moving. Her previous owner said she lived with another large dog and was great with them.

Lilly Luna spent most of her time living outside, and would sleep in the garage at night. She is active, playful and independent, and knows tons of commands.

"As the largest municipal animal shelter on Long Island, there are plenty of opportunities to give a loving cat or dog a forever home," said Town of Hempstead Supervisor Laura Gillen. "Saving one pet may not change the world, but it will surely change that pet's world forever."

If you're interested in adopting Lilly Luna, or any of dozens of other cats and dogs, visit the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter at 3320 Beltagh Ave. in Wantagh. For more information, call (516)785-5220 or visit the shelter's website.
