Please do read all the following information fully before submitting an application

Location Leicestershire Post Code Area LE67 ,you will be expected to carry out as many meet and greets as we request ,in this location
Little Luna is looking for persons or person with experience to help with her social skills,and management with resource guarding.
Luna is a pocket rocket full of mischief ,highly alert ,comes with bags of energy
Sadly Luna has found herself in a environment whereby her owner is struggling with their own health battles ,as well as living with a Son with learning issues,who does not understand Luna’s body language
This is having profound effect on all involved in the household,especially Luna.
Luna spends a good portion of time in her crate,during the day and at night
She has not had regular exercise since July,for many reasons including being nervous around traffic and owners health issues as stated previously
They have come to the hard decision that Luna needs far more than they can give her,and want to do the best for everyone involved
Luna’s Behaviour
Luna is still only a very young dog,full of life and vigor,just needs some tweaking and guidance to help her in the big wide world
Will resource various items she should not have,mostly floopy items,such as clothes,towels etc
Luna thinks this is a great game ,but recently has shown her teeth and growled ,when she had an item that could have been toxic if swollowed
They are managing this more by swapping with cheese and tasty treats ,but it’s hard with the Son in the home as he does not always see the cue’s
NOTE she does not guard her own toys or her food
Whilst out on her walks she pulls and barks at some dogs,and hates traffic (this would need some gentle TLC to address this in her new home)
Luna is an anxious little girl,lacking in social skills,needs more time spent with her giving her attention,more exercise and stimulation,along with rest time
We believe in the right environment,with people willing to train her further,with time,love and patience she will bloom,into a wonderful four legged friend
Doodle Aids Requirements
LUNA IS NOT SUITABLE FOR A FIRST TIME DOG OWNER

Meet Luna
Type F1 Mini Labradoodle
Colour Ebony
Owner has owned Luna since a puppy
Born January 2024
Female who is spayed (not used for breeding )
Height 16 inches approximately
Weight 11.4 Kgs
Microchipped
Booster vaccination due 2026
Note Luna is allergic to a Flea / tick treatment /wormer
Netgard disagrees with Luna ,started shaking after administered,vet popped her on steroids for a short period to resolve issue.
Not used this item since and no reoccurring issues
Owner had one issue about 11 months ago, after she had been given wormer, flea treatment etc at same vet visit. Luna had tremors - described by vet as shaker syndrome. Treated with steroids. After that we started her on the rescue remedy treats & have had no issues since. Also have not given her wormer or flea treatment since
Grooming
Luna has a wavy coat,sheds minimally as all dogs shed some amount
She is brushed at home weekly,not overly keen but to,erases the process
Groomed at a Professional Groomers without any issues,every 3 months approximately
Exercise
Mainly in home & garden as owner can no longer physically able to walk her. This is starting to affect her behaviour & is their main reason for considering re homing as it is just not fair on her
Luna does not go off her lead when being walked,scared of traffic,can bark at other dogs,and pulls on her lead
They do not allow her off lead as if she ran off,they could not physically chase her due to ill health
Further Information
Luna did attend puppy and junior training school,did very well and was top of her class
Sadly with home issues they could not continue with her training
Her general obedience is fair could do with more support in her new home
Luna is a happy,fun loving,very affectionate girl,just sadly she is missing out on a few things in her life,with these in place she will gain trust and confidence we are sure.
Time,love and patience,more exercise and stimulation is the key to Luna being a super star in the future.
Remember she is only a very young dog,with the rest of her life ahead of her
She is toilet trained,but accidents can occur with any dog entering into a new environment
Luna is crate trained,spends a lot of time in her crate (which we would love to see less of please)
Non destructive in home, but will look for paper and cardboard to pinch and rip up
With car travel she has only been in the car a maximum of half an hour,fine once settled in her harness
Dislikes or scared of most things as not been exposed very much in the world ,need a special person or persons to help her to say it’s ok little one
She likes the rain never been swimming
Favourite games and toys :- Spiky balls, balls, her stick toy, rope toys (but quickly destroys them), chew toys
