About Star

Meet Star! Star is about a year old and brimming with energy. She absolutely loves other dogs of all sizes and makes friends easily—she’s happiest running around, playing, and being part of the action. People are just as much her thing, and she'll stick close, always eager to be involved in whatever’s happening. Star may get along with kids, though she does best with slightly older children rather than toddlers. She’s used to being indoors but enjoys outdoor playtime, so a securely fenced yard with at least a 6-foot privacy fence is a must. Star’s a beautiful, short-coated gal with striking tricolor markings. She’s house trained, spayed, vaccinated (including rabies), microchipped, and heartworm negative, so she’s ready to go. If you’re looking for a loyal, active companion who will be a solid family dog, Star could be just the fit. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
