Luna is a 1 yr old, spayed and vaccinated, shepherd mix. She is on the bigger side weighing in at 75+ pounds and counting. Luna was kept in a crate and neglected the first couple months of her life. Surprisingly, she still loves her crate time and is quiet when you’re gone. She is excellent walking on the leash. Foster mom has never had an easier walker than Luna! She loves to learn and really responds to positive reinforcement! Luna does need a firm handler who is familiar with shepherds and working/guarding breeds (like Grt. Danes).
Luna is highly reactive/aggressive to children. She is not a candidate for grandparents or anyone that wants children in their home, even semi regularly. She is highly reactive to small animals. She is not recommended for a farm or cat setting. Luna LOVES to play! She has been a great playmate to the foster mom’s 1 year old border collie. Luna would do amazing with a male dog friend that isn’t too possessive of his toys. She likes to play rough but listens well to corrections from male dogs and leader humans.

More about this rescue
Hopes Haven began as a dream. A televised news story about a case of obscene animal abuse broke our hearts. Video from the scene taken after authorities seized possession of the animals revealed several deceased and emaciated dogs. Of the dogs still alive, only two were determined to have any chance of survival. Marsha called the humane society where the dogs had been taken and asked if a terribly emaciated Doberman that was on the newscast could be held for her to adopt if she survived. The care givers at the shelter named the Doberman Hope. Hope's life had been one of being chained inside of a barn and forced to have litter after litter of puppies, all while rarely seeing the light of day. Although Hope never did fully recover, she did indeed survive and lived with us for almost thirteen months before she died. Hopes Haven is a tribute to her and to all innocent dogs that have had their trust betrayed by unworthy guardians.
We give hope to those that have no place else to go. The old, infirm, and ill will always have a place to go as long as Hopes Haven exists.
