Hi, I'm Luna, a loving, smart, sweet, happy, friendly, energetic, eager to please German Shepherd (65%) / Belgian Malinois (35%), yes, my DNA was done! I’m an owner turn-in as allergy issues with my humans came into the mix of my life, so I’m looking for my forever home. I’m just an all-around great dog and I need someone who understands the make-up of my energetic breeds and is around most of the day. If you are a first-time shepherd owner, and don’t understand my needs, I am probably not the dog for you. My needs are a nice-sized fenced yard or alternate creative way of giving me the exercise and stimulation I need; daily enrichment exercises are very important to keep me out of mischief, like walking, the more miles the better, hiking and FETCHING, these are things I thrive on. I would love to learn tunnel and hoop or any other enrichment exercises that you want to add to the mix. I’m an active dog, and need an active pack leader otherwise I will not thrive in your environment. I do love my nap times during the day. I may be open to having a submissive canine companion; I never have had one. I’m told that I can be a little bit of an “alpha mama” and prefer male dogs over female dogs. Due to my size and relentless energy, small kids would not be good, but teens may be great and cats are off limits. Once I pick you as “my person”, I’m like Velcro and I am protective of you but very loving. I would like to sleep close to my family; not separated like I was before but be a real part of the family. I am well focused when playing, I walk quite well on a leash, and when I get excited, I may jump up but with a little training I could be at the top of my league. I look to my owner for direction whether we are walking, running, hiking, bike riding; you are my pack leader and I want to please. I have excellent recall, housebroken, crate trained, no food or toy aggression. I alert you when I need to go potty if there is no doggie door. I ride like a champ in the car and love water as I stay calm when given a warm bubble bath. I know a few commands in both English and Spanish. I hope people will NOT pass me by because I am a black dog. If you're interested in meeting me and understanding my needs, please fill out an online application and come see me, I’m the pretty one with a beautiful soft, shiny black coat and pearly whites!
