A Coyote to Call Your Own: Dog of the Week

Luna isn't really a coyote, but she's pretty close. And cute.

Hello, I’m Luna! When most people talk about getting a dog, the
typical breeds come up: labs, retrievers, terriers, and poodles.  But
deep down, I’m sure the thought, “wouldn’t it be so cool to have a
wolf or coyote as a pet” has crossed your mind.  

Well, here is your chance to own your very own coyote!

Ok, so I may have exaggerated a bit, but I do look an awfully lot like
a blonde coyote with my big ears and bushy tail. I am part Sheppard,
part collie, and part whatever else you want me to be.

I am a very sweet girl; much quieter than my noisy neighbors. I came
to when I was pregnant. My adorable puppies all found
their loving homes a few weeks ago, but I am still here waiting for
the perfect person to take me home.

I like peace and quiet and am looking forward to becoming your new loyal companion.  

(And if you want to tell your friends I’m a wild coyote you befriended out west, I
promise I won’t say anything).
