A335032
Located At: Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter - Santa Cruz
Description: Staff named me Luna and I am a spayed female, brown and white Siberian Husky mix.
Age: The shelter staff think I am about 5 years old.
More Info: I have been at the shelter since Sep 18, 2026.
Meet Luna, the 5 year old female husky. Luna arrived to the Shelter after a previous guardian left her and another dog behind. A roommate brought them to the Shelter for safety as they were unable to care for them long term. Luna is a fluffy gal who hasn’t had the best husbandry – arrived to the Shelter with matting and a dirty coat. Since her arrival, she has gotten groomed and has been loving all the attention and play from staff and volunteers. She recently went on a sleepover with a volunteer who reports: “I had another fun sleepover with miss Luna and it went great! After some cuddles in the apartment, we went for an adventure at Arana Gulch. She was curious about and sniffing everything. She was very curious to explore all areas of our apartment. She was the most polite car-rider ever. She settles quickly and hardly makes a peep. She snuggled all night and well into the morning—demanding belly rubs often and using my legs as pillows. Luna really enjoys playing with soft toys—specifically ripping a hole and pulling the stuffing out. I watched her closely during this and made sure to remove the squeaky early. She did not object to that and showed no signs of wanting to eat the stuffing. I re-stuffed the toy a couple times and she eagerly deconstructed the toy each time not seeming to get sick of the game. What a silly girl.”
Typical to Nordic breeds – Luna does have a bit of wanderlust. She should be securely on leash or supervised if out in an enclosed yard to ensure she does not go off to find her own fun. Luna has lived with another dog previously. Although initially unsure of new dogs at the Shelter, she has met other dogs of various sizes and was noted to be mildly curious and quiet. A home with another dog may be a fit after a meet ‘n greet at the Shelter. We do not have any history of Luna with children or cats.
Luna's adoption fee has been sponsored by the Santa Cruz Animal Shelter Foundation's Leave No One Behind fund - a fund that draws adopter's eyes towards animals that have been waiting a little bit longer than average for the right adopters to come along and bring them home.
The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!
Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
