Luna Izzo
Hi, pyr friends! My name is Luna Izzo. My GPRA transporter gave me the last name of some college basketball coach. I don’t know anything about basketball, but I would love to snuggle with you while you watch the game. As long as there are no cats swishing around, I’m happy! The nice lady also says that I am the calmest dog she’s ever transported. That’s because I love traveling (like the basketball term) in the car. In this case, traveling is a good thing! I’m a great house guest too because I’m always house-trained. I can even be left home alone without being destructive. I want to be a good girl even when my coaches (that’s you) aren’t looking! When we’re at home together, I like to cuddle and take naps. Practicing commands can be fun too. I’ll do a command, and you can make the assist by giving me a training treat. I already know sit, stay, and off, so my training is paying off. I’m mostly good on a leash as well! I just need a little help with pulling when I see a dog sometimes; not all dogs make me want to pull, but some do. A family who doesn’t mind helping me with leash-training would be great. I’m a big girl, so I can be strong on the leash when something gets me excited. With some practice and positive reinforcement, though, my leash-walking skills will be a slam dunk! Walking is really fun as is running around the yard. The yard is like my basketball court, and I love to run up and down through the grass. What I really like, however, is to be petted! I will even gently nudge you if you stop. It’s my friendly way of saying, “More love, please!” I’m looking for a furever family that will make a fast break for me and help me make the alley-oop. You’ll throw a ball of love towards me, I’ll catch it, and put it into the basket of my heart. Could you be my perfect match? I’d love to join your team!
