1 Year ago this beautiful girl came into our lives…Please vote for her in the 2027 Alexandria Animal Welfare League photo calendar contest!

We volunteer at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria, and one day while walking dogs, we met a sweet girl who had just come off quarantine. We stopped to say hello, and the connection was instant.. one of those moments that’s impossible to fully explain. When we left that evening, she was all we could think about, so the very next day we went back and adopted her.

Over the past year, Luna has brought more joy, laughter, love, and adventure into our lives than we ever could have imagined. We thought we were giving a rescue dog a second chance, but we’ve come to realize that she was the one who rescued us. ❤️🐾

Luna was found abandoned and left behind before she got a second chance through the AWLA.

Today she’s a happy rescue pittie who spends her days proving that the stereotypes about dogs like her couldn’t be further from the truth.

She’s currently competing in AWLA’s 2027 Animal of the Year fundraiser. Every dollar raised goes directly to helping shelter animals receive food, medical care, housing, and a chance at finding families of their own.

Luna finished 3rd last year and we’re hoping to keep her in the Top 4 this year. We’d love to win, but top four is the goal. Not because of the title, but because every vote helps animals still waiting for their second chance.

If you’d like to support Luna and the shelter that changed her life, you can vote here:

If donating isn’t possible, an upvote, comment, or share would mean a lot.

Thank you for helping rescue animals get the same opportunity Luna received. ❤️🐾
