Luna was found huddled under a car after apparently being hit by another vehicle. While she was able to avoid having any broken bones, the accident did cause the fur and skin covering her entire tail, from the tip of it all the way up to her torso, to be ripped off, leaving the bone exposed. The only option was to have her entire tail amputated. Luna has been at a foster home during her recovery period and doing exceptionally well.
Despite her injuries, Luna is a very affectionate and friendly little girl. She loves to be held and finds great comfort from curling up in a lap. She's instantly friends with everyone she meets as is well-socialized towards people. She would growl softly at other dogs when she first arrived, but has since shown to be friendly towards other dogs, more so with larger dogs than other smaller ones.
In addition to her surgery, Luna has also now been spay, received an update on all of her annual vaccinations and de-wormings and kept current with her flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. She also tested negative for heartworms. While Luna has displayed having some house training, she may need a refresher course once in a new home.
