One of our veteran foster families spent some time with Luna 2 recently and let us know all about their time with this great gal!
"Luna was an absolute delight! She was very well behaved on the leash, energetic but not a puller unless squirrels dash by. Luna is mellow even when other dogs are barking at her. She was happy to chase balls in our backyard and enjoyed taking naps in the sun. She also loved a good chew toy and some tummy rubs.
Luna is a very quiet dog - I don't believe we ever heard her bark. She seems comfortable with some alone time, and she waited patiently for us to greet her in the morning after we slept in a different part of the house. She also travels well in a car.
Luna is a big, athletic dog, and it is clear that she is still young and can get mouthy and jump up when playing or roughhousing, but she responds well when corrected. She can sit, lie down, and shake hands on command. Luna is a bright, beautiful, curious, sweet, and fun loving dog.
Luna would benefit from more exposure to a variety of people as she seems a bit cautious about interacting with new people and is also protective of her existing relationships. Having said that, she took quickly to us and we fell in love with her over the weekend."

More about this rescue
The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.
Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.
The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
