Luna is a 1-year-old pit bull who resides in Somerville, Mass. She's a fantastic dog with an affectionate, heartwarming personality that is truly Westminster-worthy.

Upon seeing Luna for the first time, you'll notice her adorable eyes widen, her tail wag vigorously, and the wet lick of her tongue. When my family got Luna, we were skeptical of how we would handle a pit bull, being aware of their vicious reputation. That concern quickly dissipated once we found out how loving of a dog she was to us, as well as to our two cats.

I believe Luna serves as a perfect example to falsify the stigma held against pit bulls today. Relatives and friends hesitate when meeting Luna at first due to the "viciousness" stamp put on pit bulls by society, but their hesitation is immediately withdrawn upon meeting the loving Luna. less
