Luna
Luna is a lovely 6-year-old female staffie cross who arrived for rehoming on 30 October 2024.
Luna is a bright, bubbly and active dog that is looking for the following type of home.
-
No dogs or cats in the home – she is not socialised at the moment
-
No children living in the home under 8 years of age
-
Access to her own private and secure garden (not shared or communal)
-
Access to the sofa for cuddles
-
Not left for more than 4 hours at a time
-
Not caged/crated in the home
-
We feel she will be best suited to an active home
Handling
Very friendly but may be a little nervous of new people for a moment. A little nervous of having her new harness put on, but she has had it on and off several times since arriving without any further issues. May give a random bark or two to a new person, but then is all over them with her tail wagging.
Walking
Only a little pulling, and a bit of weaving. Has not reacted to dogs that she has seen on walks so far, with only minor pulling noted in one case. Didn’t seem bothered by fireworks going off in the distance. No problems with people on bicycles. Just very curious of people and surroundings. Our walkers have found her an easy and pleasurable dog to walk.
Playing
Will play with anything, including rope toys and chasing balls around. Has even brought toys back to us and dropped them a few times. No issues tidying toys up around her.
Health
Appears in good health and is microchipped. We are told she is already neutered (June 2022) but not vaccinated and she will get her 1st restart vaccination done when she sees our vet week commencing 4 November.
Luna weighs 23.2 kilos, and is a lean and healthy weight.
