Five years. That’s how long our sweet Luna has been waiting for a place to truly call home.
Five years ago, Luna, her two siblings, and their mama were found abandoned on a grandfather’s land in Del Valle. The grandfather’s family noticed the tiny pups and, despite being unprepared, began doing what they could to care for them. It quickly became clear that these puppies had been born in the wild—they were feral, frightened, and unsure of humans.
Thankfully, they reached out to AGSDR, and we were able to bring all four into our care. Their mama was spayed, rehabilitated, and found a loving home in no time. Luna’s siblings—though also shy—slowly opened up and were both adopted into wonderful families.
But Luna’s journey… it was different.
She was deeply shut down. She wouldn’t eat around people, preferred to be alone, and avoided both humans and other dogs. Her fear was raw, and her walls were high.
Then came Jennifer.
Jenn applied to foster that same year, and Luna was her very first foster. With incredible patience and compassion, Jenn never pushed Luna—she simply let her be. And slowly, gently, Luna started to bloom. Jenn adopted another shepherd, Patsy, and to everyone’s delight, Luna and Patsy became best friends. Hikes, runs, and little joys followed. Luna found comfort in a rhythm of love, trust, and understanding.
Over the years, Luna had a few potential adopters—but her timid heart often left her overlooked.
Until now.
Five years later, Jennifer has made it official. Luna is HOME.
We could not be more overjoyed. Jenn, your unwavering devotion, your patience, and your nurturing spirit have been everything Luna needed to feel safe and loved.
Cheers to the end of a foster chapter and the beginning of forever. ♥️
Happy tails, Luna 🐾
