LUNA - Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat) Dog For Adoption

she opened up, we saw exactly who she'd been hiding: a silly, joyful, zooming, snuggling girl who had just needed someone to wait for her. Luna does the best zoomies. She greets her favorite handlers like they're the most important person who ever walked through a door. She loves meeting new people, and — something we honestly weren't sure we'd ever say — she loves meeting new dogs too. When she first came to us, she was undersocialized and reactive, and we weren't sure she could share space with other dogs at all. Now she's out in the yard with dog friends every day. We've done a complete 180, and we think a canine companion could actually be key to her success in a home. Here's what we want you to know going in: change is hard for Luna. It was hard when she arrived, and it will probably be hard again when she moves to a new home. She has struggled to settle in foster situations — not because anything is wrong with her, but because her nervous system needs time to catch up with her heart. She'll need a patient, experienced adopter who can give her space to decompress, maybe a room or corner to call her own, and the grace to let her get there at her own pace. Her excitability is something she's still working on, and a little training will go a long way. What she needs in return isn't much. A leash walk — which she's great on. A chew toy and someone to sit beside — her ideal afternoon. The occasional snuggle. She knows sit and shake, she's working on crate training, and she has so much love to give once she knows it's safe to give it. Luna is worth the effort. Anyone who's watched her come this far already knows that.
