My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Name: Luna
Breed: Dachshund/Labrador Mix
Age: 5 years old

Background:
Luna joined our shelter family in early April after being surrendered due to not getting along with young children. While she may have had a rough start, Luna is ready to turn the page and find a forever home where she can thrive. She's an affectionate companion with a heart full of love to give, but she needs a patient and understanding family who can help her overcome her fears.

Personality:
Luna is a sweet and gentle soul who longs for a calm and quiet environment where she can feel safe and secure. She may be wary of strangers at first, and her initial reaction might be to growl, but with time and patience, she'll come to trust you completely (especially with treats!) Once she bonds with you, Luna will be your most loyal and devoted friend, showering you with love and affection every day.

Ideal Home:
Due to her apprehensive nature around people, Luna is not suitable for homes with small children. She thrives on routine and would do best in a calm household where she can feel relaxed and at ease. Luna is house trained and possibly crate trained, and she knows commands like "sit." She takes treats gently and is a quick learner, making her a low-maintenance yet highly rewarding companion. An understanding family who can provide her with the time and space she needs to adjust will be rewarded with a loyal and affectionate companion for life. While she hasn't been tested with other dogs or cats, a meet and greet can be arranged to assess compatibility.

Final Thoughts:
If you're looking for a sweet low-rider to welcome into your home, Luna might be the perfect match for you. With patience, love, and understanding, she'll blossom into the devoted family member she's meant to be. Come meet Luna today and see if you're the one she's been waiting for!
