This Gorgeous girl is Luna. She came to us through no fault of her own and is now looking for a new start. She spent the first part of her life living in a crate therefore she can be cautious of crates or small spaces. She can be nervous at first but once she is your friend she loves affection and loves to play. She loves her toys (notably balls and teddy’s) however we have noticed she can guard these a little bit. This is something that we are working on with training at the centre. Luna is extremely nervous and anxious around the vet (lots of dogs are the same) we are working on muzzle training her to help make the experience much less stressful, it is extremely important that her future family are committed to continuing this training and understand its importance. Whilst out and about Luna walks lovely on her lead, she loves adventures and finding good sniffing spots. She can become a little vocal when she sees other dogs, however, with training here at the centre she's made huge progress with this. This training will need continuing in her home. Luna does have some doggy friends here at the centre, however, it is always important that introductions are done positively to ensure they're successful. She doesn't like dogs too close to her face or overly bouncy dogs. We feel that Luna would be best suited in a home where she is the only dog, along with no cats or small mammals as she does have a little bit of prey drive. Luna would be best suited to an adult only household due to her nervousness. As always with dogs in the kennel, we can not say if Luna is house trained however advice and support can be given with this.
