Luna

YOUR SUPPORT AS A “FOSTER FROM AFAR” WILL HELP CHANGE THIS SATO MOM’S LIFE FOREVER.

Luna is a mother that was saved from death row. This loving mother was at the municipal shelter in Ponce, Puerto Rico. We recognized her from our clinic held there two months earlier, but something was different—she was heavily pregnant! Soon after we brought her into our program, this 25-pound mom gave birth to a huge litter of ten puppies.

She tested positive for heartworm, so now that she is spayed, she will go through our extensive heartworm treatment program. Unfortunately, Lunita had stopped producing milk. So her puppies are being brought home every night for bottle feeding by an experienced veterinary technician at our clinic.

Her name is in honor of Lunita the Sato, a treasured member of Natalia and Samuel’s family for more than 13 years. As major members of our rescue team, we decided the best way to honor Lunita would be to name a very special sato after her and there is none more fitting than our wonderful new sato mom.

We are dedicated to giving Luna the best life possible and finding a loving forever home to spend the rest of her life. But until then, Luna would love some virtual foster family support along her journey toward rehabilitation.

For any donation made below, you’ll receive a special digital postcard of Luna. You can share it on social media or print it to display proudly and think of your foster dog every day. We’ll also keep you updated on Luna’s progress. Just as if you were fostering in your home, you’ll be among the first to know when Luna reaches new milestones in her recovery, meets her forever family, and finally gets to live happily ever after, thanks to your support.
