Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Luna is a 4 yr old, 54# hound that came to us from a Reservation. She is calm, gentle, sweet, and shows her affection by giving you little kisses. She is housebroken - doesn’t ask to go out, but is put out 4 times/day; first thing in the morning, just before bedtime, and a couple times in between. Luna is so well behaved that she doesn’t need to be kenneled when left. A kennel is in the foster’s bedroom, and the door left open – at night, she will either sleep in bed with her foster mom or will go into the kennel on her own. Luna is very easy to have around, except for her prey drive (especially for rabbits – I wouldn't doubt she had to hunt for her own food on the Reservation, and she became quite skilled at it). Luna's best match might be someone that didn't go for walks, but perhaps went to the dog park or just exercised her in a fenced yard. If you are walking her, and she sees a bunny, or other critter, she goes after it. Now the foster keeps her on a long lead even when she goes out into the fenced yard (if you had a 5 ft fence or higher, you wouldn't need to keep her on a lead). Luna likes attention, but is not a pest. She knows the “sit” command and comes when called. No interest in toys; does play with the younger foster pup in the house. Luna would be fine as an only dog, or could be paired with another canine. Fine riding in the car – stayed in the back seat. We haven’t seen her interact with kids, but expect she would be good with kids 8 yr and up……….they should not have an expectation of play or walking her. Luna is quiet – seldom barks. She has been spayed, and is current on distemper and rabies vaccinations. The heartworm test and tick profiles are negative. Her microchip is registered to Second Chance. Luna has a $375 adoption fee. Call 651-771-5662 if you would like to meet her.

Initial contact is made by leaving a message on the Second Chance answering machine - expect a return call within 24 hrs. Potential adopters will be screened, and possibly a home visit done before a referral is made to the foster home where the animal is currently housed. They can expect to fill out a written application, sign an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee at time of pick up. Adopters must be at least 20 yr old. If renting, the landlord's consent in writing is required or a copy of the lease brought with you at time of adoption. Must have familiarity with local animal ordinances so you know how many cats/dogs you are permitted - this will vary from city to city. Potential adopters must understand that their application can be denied.
