Luna - Collie and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Roanoke, Virginia

Meet Luna! Luna came to the shelter when her owner passed away, and she has quickly become a staff favorite for her sweet demeanor and excellent manners. Kennel staff describe her as smart and obedient and great on leash (though she sometimes gets excited when she sees a squirrel). She has previously lived with cats and did great with them, even calmly allowing them to grab a snack from her food bowl. She loves kids and is friendly with strangers, but can sometimes be more timid around men. She would prefer a home with no other dogs. She is housebroken and loves treats!
