Starlord, or Joe, as his foster parents call him, is an adorable pup who is looking for a forever home where he can bring the perfect mix of playful energy and affectionate companionship! Joe lives with his best friend Al in foster home in Houston and can be transported to any state, as well as Canada to the right home. Joe is very good with other dogs, cats and people. He is confident, bouncy, fun-loving, and full of energy—always ready to run, play, and enjoy life to the fullest. While he hasn’t quite figured out fetch yet, he makes up for it with his enthusiasm and playful spirit. Joe and Al met at the shelter and became besties. It will be great if they can go home together, but they are not bonded. A home with or without other pups is fine for him as long as he gets the love he craves for. Joe is housebroken and crate trained. He also knows some basic commands. He is not a barker (except when the UPS truck stops by) and he is very food motivated (great for training!) Joe is very sweet, affectionate, and people-friendly pup who enjoys being around his humans. After playtime, he is happy to relax on the couch and just be part of the family. Joe is 2.5 years old and weighs about 25 lb. He is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated pup who is kept on heartworm and flea preventatives. He is currently fostered with bff Al in Houston, Texas, but can go to any state or even Canada to the right home. To meet this sweet boy via facetime or whatsapp or other video chat apps, please send a completed application via www.savesomesouls.com Joe's adoption fee of $500 include all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter surgery and recovery, heartworm and flea prevention), a microchip with free lifetime registration, and a high quality collar, harness and leash. Out-of-state Transport fee can be around $250. Our dogs are fully assessed by foster parents, vets and behaviorists, as well as videos and video chats are available to observe their manners in public. We are extremely transparent and like to share everything negative and positive with the adopters, to ensure it's a good fit and they are not returned to us, as the trips are very stressful on them. Houston is home to million strays, many who are abandoned, many born on the streets, many who escaped while living in the yard, which is common in Texas. Since our rescue does not get grants that shelters get, we use adoption fee to help the pups and kitties in our care. Your adoption fee goes towards vetting and feeding our long term and permanent fosters, and unadoptable pups, as well as towards the monthly care and preventatives etc of our pets. By adopting one pup from our rescue, you make room for another dog to be rescued our high kill shelter, thus becoming an integral part of our mission to save as many unfortunate dogs off the streets and shelters as possible. So Thank you for choosing to rescue, and not go to a breeder.
