Luna, a five-year-old dog Pitbull mix from Phoenix, AZ, became PetSmart Charities’ 9 millionth adopted pet when Bekah Wilson and Bri Sommers adopted her. “My aunt shared a picture of her from the Arizona Humane Society,” Sommers said. “And then she (Wilson) had found the same photo on a different pet finder, pet for adoption site.” The two realized Luna was at their local PetSmart and visited with her that same evening. “We just couldn’t leave without her,” Wilson said. “We just saw how loving she is and how adorable she was, and we were just hooked on the spot after that.” Luna is a special-needs dog. Arizona Humane Society’s Emergency Medical Team rescued her after a dog fight. She had extensive injuries, especially to her front leg. AHS tried to save the leg, but it had become lame and ended up removing it. “She instantly brought so much joy and happiness in our lives,” Wilson said. “There’s no reason we shouldn’t give her a chance.” For those looking to adopt their new pet, the couple has a few words of advice. “Never give up on your pet,” Wilson said. “They’re never going to give up on you.” Watch Luna’s journey home story in full and get inspired to help more pets find a home for the holidays: PetSmartCharities.org {PetSmart Charities} THE PAW REPORT SPECIAL ADVERTISING SECTION MEET LUNA: PETSMART CHARITIES’ 9 MILLIONTH ADOPTED PET!
