Greetings world,
My name is Luna. I am a happy and energetic young girl of about seven months old. I am looking for a family of my very own. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and see if you think we might be a match.
I am a petite girl. My foster mom thinks that I am a mix. Most likely I am a German Shepherd/border collie mix. I have a beautiful gray face with fluffy ears, I have wavy blonde, and brown fur on my body. I am currently 37 pounds and will probably be about 50 pounds when I finish maturing. So a perfect size for someone wanting a more compact companion!
My foster mom says that I am super super smart! I think that’s a compliment! I am a very intense dog, and I bond very quickly with my person. I am very fast, very athletic, and very focused. Foster mom says I need a job! When we are out in the yard, I will run around and then I will run up and either do a leap by my foster mom, or I will come to a sliding stop and just look at her for direction.
I am extremely food, motivated, and will sell my soul or do any trick you want to try to teach me for some treats. I take treats gently , which is a good thing. I love to play ball and I love to just engage with my foster mom. I will sit on command and stare intently waiting for further direction. I also know how to give the paw! I sometimes utilize this skill to try to encourage my foster mom to give me an extra treat from her a little snack bag that she carries around.
I have several furry foster siblings that I get to interact with and play with. I love a good game of chase (I am super fast and I can dodge and weave with the best, and I can also utilize my leapfrog skills. If someone trips in front of me, I just go vertical and hurdle right over them). I’m also up for the little rough and tumble play as a few of my housemates like to play tag/tackle as well. It’s all good. I am perfectly happy with that. I’m actually a fairly submissive player.
I do have consider a prey drive, so I will need a home with a dog at least my size or bigger. No small dogs. No felines. (Foster mom is unsure on fish… they move around quickly. They might also get my attention. ). I also need a home without chickens. There are currently chickens at my foster home, and I am trying my best to parkour off the fence to see if I can get it to give.
I would love a home with an individual or a couple that would like to work with me on agility, or some other sport, where I could demonstrate my superior skill sets. I am so eager to learn, and I am so athletic. What do you expect when you have a working line dog/herding dog combination? I would also love someone who just wants to run! I have tons of energy and I would love to be a jogging partner!
My foster mom says that I need to go to a home without children under the age of 15. I am a super excited dog and I get a little nippy. It’s just an energy outlet, but my foster mom says that it’s not a good combination to have around young children.
Well, I’ve tried to describe a lot of my personality traits, and hopefully I have peaked your interest if you’re looking for a fun, loving, devoted friend. Please come and meet me soon.
Best wishes,
Luna
