May I introduce Luna who is just 3 years of age. Not spayed and vaccinations are out of date but she is microchipped. She has just come into season so could be spayed end December.

This is what our volunteer had to say about her:

“What an absolute lovely young dog. Barked at the doorbell and let out of the room when I was in the house, came and said hello and sniff, no issues.  Laid down at my feet. Luna currently lives in a very stressful household which making her stressed/anxious.  Luna’s owner is anxious and stressed at Lunas boisterous and reactive behaviour and this in turn makes Luna more stressed which then makes owner more stressed, vicious cycle.

Due Luna being reactive and too boisterous outside she is not walked for very long, if at all, her owners are in their 60’s with health issues and she is too strong for them.  Applicant states that Luna is very “clingy” towards her and wants attention and she does not like this.  Consequently, Luna does not get the attention that she wants.  Whilst in the garden Luna was giving owner a toy and wanting her to throw it and play with her but owner ignored this and just told her to sit.

Luna, when walked, wears a very badly fitted harness.  Owner was informed that to have any control over Luna best to use a collar.  Lunas collar that she did have was too loose and she came out of it when reacting to a person walking by. Applicant stated she was socialised as a pup but has no formal training.”

This lovely young lady is craving attention and obviously likes her toys, and has not had the training and  socialisation she needs when out. She is also craving more exercise and mental stimulation. In a GSD experienced home Luna should thrive but will need work with reactivity when out and about.

Luna has been adopted and is now known as Lulu.
