Luna is a beautiful Bichon Frise/Maltese mix who's only 1 year old and weighs 15 pounds.  She's a special girl who had a rough first year of life and needs a patient, loving, nurturing home.  She along with several others was confiscated from a hoarder.  She was undersocialized when we got her which was not a surprise.  I have personally fostered her, and with patience, love and time along with the help of the rest of my well-behaved pack, she learned to trust and love and even does the bichon wave and the blitz! She also now has her favorite toy.  Of course she's still nervous around strangers but warms up quickly and doesn't have a mean bone in her body.  She can be quite the watchdog when someone walks in front of the fence and she's outside or if the doorbell rings.  Luna is one of the most expressive and sensitive dogs I've ever fostered.  Her eyes speak volumes and she's incredibly affectionate.  When she snuggles her head into the crook of your neck with that downey soft hair it just makes you melt.  Luna is great on a leash and loves car rides.  One of the challenges she's having is consistently going potty outside.  She was comfortable going on wee-wee pads when I first got her and I've diligently worked on training her to go outside.  While she's improved tremendously her new home will have to continue that process, have patience and give it time.  That is why a home with a yard is a must.  Luna has never pottied on any walk.  She chooses to go in the yard.  The other requirement for Luna to be happy and thrive is a home that will allow her to sleep in bed.  She has never had an accident in bed.  She's the perfect bed mate and curls up and sleeps through the night.  It's been a joy watching Luna blossom as much as she has, and I have no doubt she will continue to in the right home.  Luna is good with other dogs and fine with kids but we recommend an adult-only peaceful home.  She has all shots, is spayed and chipped.  If interested, please fill out the adoption application on our site bichonsandbuddies.com
