Meet Luna, a playful three-year-old Maltese from Santee, CA, whose sunny cream-colored coat and boundless energy are just the beginning of her charm. Weighing in at 24 pounds, this small-sized sweetheart is a tug-of-war champion and an expert in sprinkling joy wherever she goes!
Luna is the definition of “fun-sized,” with a personality that’s just as vibrant as her name suggests. She’s quick to show affection, especially once she’s gotten to know you—though fair warning: she’s got a special bark reserved for one particularly mysterious neighbor (we’re still trying to figure out what he did!). But beyond that momentary burst of protective energy, Luna is a friendly soul who thrives on attention, companionship, and playtime.
Already familiar with commands like sit, lay down, and wait, Luna has had some formal training and is eager to keep learning—especially when praise and treats are involved! She does just fine when left alone for short periods, but she’s truly happiest when she’s part of the action. Whether it’s tugging on her favorite toy or trotting after her humans, she’s always ready to engage.
While her interactions with other dogs and cats haven’t been fully explored, Luna’s warm heart and playful nature suggest she could be a great addition to a family willing to help her socialize at her own pace. Her caregivers describe her as a very good companion—loyal, loving, and always ready for the next cuddle or game.
Luna is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, and requires grooming about once every month or two to keep her coat soft and snuggly. Though she hasn’t developed a dental routine yet, she’d surely be open to trying some tasty dental chews if it means spending more time with her new family.
Luna would be a wonderful fit for a home with kids and playful energy, where she can be both a spirited playmate and a cozy cuddle buddy. Could you be the one to welcome this curious, tug-loving fluffball into your life?
