AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION or FOSTER -- LUNA OF CENTRAL FLORIDA !  

 

Meet Luna, an energetic, playful, healthy young female, who loves people and exploring her surroundings.  She is intelligent, quite clever, and a quick learner.  Luna loves playing with her toys or ball toss (she will even bring it back to you!), going for car rides, and watching TV with her foster mom.  She loves being outside, and can happily spend time exploring, chewing on sticks, chasing squirrels, or just resting in the grass.  

 

Luna is an Eskie mix with naturally short fur, a curled tail and brown ears, so she's low maintenance and could be the perfect dog for someone that loves the Eskie intelligence and personality, but without so much shedding or the need to groom quite as often.  She is leash trained, house trained, and well-behaved when left home alone.  Luna weighs 29 pounds, and is estimated to be about 3 or 4 years old.  

 

Luna is currently in a foster home with 4 other dogs.  She gets along with the smaller dogs but doesn't like a senior male in the home.  As a result, she requires supervision when interacting with the other dogs and needs to be kept isolated when the foster is not at home.  It appears Luna was not properly socialized to other dogs as a puppy, and exhibits dog reactivity.  She's curious about other dogs, but isn't comfortable with general interaction with them.  She barks and wants them to stay away from her.  

 

It would be more comfortable for Luna to be the only pet in the home; however, with a little time and patience, we think she would adopt to another non-threatening, smaller dog.  Correcting dog reactivity takes time and socialization training, and Luna is smart and likes to learn.  She quickly understands new expectations.  Luna's probably not the best "first dog" candidate, so we recommend a dog-experienced adopter.  To help the adopter, Eskie Rescuers United will provide online behavior modification training sessions with Baltimore K9 Tutors   ( https://www.baltimorek9tutors.com/about/meet-the-trainers ) 

 

Luna was curious and friendly when she met the children next door, but we think she would probably prefer a home without kids, particularly very young children.  

 

She has a strong prey drive, so we don't recommend a home with cats.  Luna LOVES exploring the outdoors!  While not mandatory, she would be very happy with a fully fenced yard.

Whenever possible, Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out our dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where they're being fostered).  Please note that ERU processes local applications before considering those that are farther away. 

Adoption fee applies.  

 

 

 

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.

If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers.

There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.
