Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Adopt Luna . Luna’s journey has been a very long one. She was originally helped by a good Samaritan. Someone saw an emaciated dog tied by a leash to her dog house and it was Luna. She asked the owner to surrender and luckily they did. Luna lived her whole life in neglect which caused her organs to not be so healthy. It took 6 months to rehabilitate Luna. At one point a doctor said to humanely euthanize her because she was never going to get better and something might have been wrong like cancer. Finally after seeing a specialist we found out one of her organs was decreased in values. Her neglect led to Pancreas issues. She is on medication now which has had great effects! She is finally at a healthy weight and doing so great. We really appreciate foster mom for putting in the work for Luna. She had no one to help her and foster mom stepped up. Literally saved her life. Luna loves squeaky toys, loves to chase things and to go on walks. Luna might be about 8 years old and has her whole life to live to live. We would love for her to find a family that can give her the life she deserved. Not a life where she was chained up and tortured. If anyone is interested in adopting Luna please messages or fill out our adoption application. Should be an only dog home for now She might be a little visually impaired since she uses her nose a lot! High prey drive Loves squeaky toys Loves people Crate trained Treat motivated The last photos of Luna show her neglect and where she was tied up. Located in San Jose ca

Overview:
The American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT) is a robust and intelligent breed, originating in the United States from crossbreeding Old English Terriers and Old English Bulldogs for dog-fighting purposes. Physically, they are medium-sized, known for their muscular build, broad heads, and powerful jaws, typically weighing between 30-60 pounds. Their coats are short and come in a wide array of colors. Temperamentally, a well-socialized APBT is often described as loyal, affectionate, and people-oriented, displaying a playful and sometimes clownish demeanor. They can be excellent family companions, provided they receive consistent training and early socialization, though their high energy levels mean they thrive with active owners. While they can adapt to apartment living with sufficient exercise, a house with a secure yard is often preferred. Notable health considerations include a predisposition to hip and elbow dysplasia, allergies, and certain heart conditions.
