Starlight came to us with severe facial deformities, likely caused by a traumatic event. We try not to dwell on what might have happened to this incredibly sweet girl, but her resilience is truly inspiring. Despite her noticeable trauma, Starlight loves everyone she meets and thrives outside of her kennel. Unfortunately, she often gets overlooked because she’s big, a senior, a black dog, and has a unique appearance.
Starlight is a stocky Lab-Dane mix, weighing around 85 pounds and spayed. She is a medical case for several reasons: she is a senior, heartworm positive, overweight, and has neurogenic atrophy of the facial muscles on her right side. The shelter believes this is due to a traumatic injury to her face, but we prefer not to explore the heartbreaking details further.
She needs a home that accepts her physical appearance and sees her for the beautiful girl she is. Starlight’s personality is fantastic—she is great with other dogs and is a shelter favorite. She loves everyone she comes in contact with and doesn’t seem bothered at all by other dogs.
Starlight is currently living her best life, napping by the fireplace on the couch and cuddling with the kids. She is such a sweetheart and will make a great family dog. She doesn’t mind the other crazy dogs in the house and is very good on a leash, although she walks very slowly. Starlight’s favorite thing is nap time! She literally just walks around so happy, wagging her tail. She is completely potty trained and just a happy love bug. Mojave, another dog in the house, seems to really enjoy her company too! She is lazy, just like he likes it. Starlight is honestly perfect! She walked right into a house with 5 kids, 2 pups, and a foster dog with no issues.
Starlight is thriving in her foster home but longs for a family to call her own. If you are looking for a sweet, laid back snuggler then Starlight is your girl!
All of our Great Danes are altered, if medically possible, fully vetted, micro-chipped, and on heartworm prevention or treatment prior to being adopted. Thank you for considering adopting a rescue dog, you're saving a life when you adopt.

More about this rescue
To rescue Great Danes from neglect, abuse, and abandonment while providing medical care and individual rehabilitation through our experienced and loving foster home program until we are able to provide each rescued Dane with a qualified, caring, and permanent home that will ensure a good quality of life they deserve.
To assist owners that cannot afford spaying, neutering or heartworm treatment as funds allow while also educating owners on affordable, local spay/neuter clinics, spay/neuter benefits, vaccinations, backyard breeding, behavior, nutrition, and obedience. Additionally, we want to be a link point to other rescues and clubs. Raising awareness around rescues and the Great Dane breed is of great importance to us.
We have been rescuing Great Danes since 2011 and we take pride in the collective love, concern, and dedication we have given to the misunderstood and forgotten Danes. It is our mission to continue to be the voices of the less fortunate Danes and to provide them safety and their birthright to a quality of life filled with love and dignity. You can help us achieve our mission by donating funds, items from our wishlist, items of relevance, your time through volunteering, or by lending your home as a foster.
