Here's what the humans have to say about me:
6/20/23 - ADOPTION PENDING!
Adoption Fee: $100
Age: 11 years
Weight: 5 lbs.
Fostered in Fredericktown, MO
Email: moyorkiemom@yahoo.com
6/16/23 - Looking to adopt a male or female human, with a good loyal personality. Prefer he or she to be already trained in taking care of pet and a non-shedder would be a plus.
I bet you did not know that the smallest stars are known as red dwarfs. Despite their diminutive nature, red dwarfs are by far the most numerous stars in the Universe and have lifespans of tens of billions of years. WOW! Just WOW! Well, I’m already 11 years old, and I know that I will not live to be tens of billions of years old, but I am very much a spunky little gal and I would put money on me living at least 6 more years.
Starbright is actually my name, but you can call me Star or you can call me Queen. I act like a Queen! I’m looking to adopt a female and male humans with good personalities. I prefer them to already be trained in taking care of a pet and ones that realize my importance will obviously get preferential consideration.
I am not a fan of other dogs in the household getting attention, so I would do best as an only dog. I like being petted, loved on, getting belly rubs, ear scratches, and kisses. Basically, I want my people all to myself all the time. I wish to sleep in bed with my human(s) and I’m usually right up next to you, or on your head. I’m a pretty good girl in the potty department and will use pee pads if you put them down. But, I have been caught marking some. No one’s perfect.
I don’t really play with toys, but do love chewing on nylabones. I do ok on a leash, and with more practice, I won’t tangle my humans up in the leash. I have to be everywhere my humans are and if you are sitting, in your lap I go. I’m too small to jump, and exercise isn’t my thing, so don’t expect me to use steps or stairs, just pick me up.
Bad weather and normal household noises don’t seem to bother me. I’m an excellent rider in the car, so that makes me a perfect passenger to bring along wherever you go.
I’m not an excessive barker, but will let out a cute peep when I’m not getting enough attention.
Have you figured out by now that I’m a diva that NEEDS ATTENTION? If not, I can’t help you. If so, you’re are my type person. I’ll just be here on my throne waiting for the most perfect application to come along.
