My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Say hello to Sam! This stunning 2-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix is the total package—handsome, smart, and full of love. At 80 pounds, Sam is the perfect balance of playful energy and laid-back chill.

Sam has a stellar résumé of good behavior. He’s fully housebroken, listens well, walks beautifully on a leash, and takes treats like a true gentleman. He’s happiest when he’s outside playing ball, watching (or chasing!) squirrels, or enjoying a fun car ride—he’s always up for an adventure!

When it’s time to relax, Sam is the ultimate housemate. He’s not destructive, doesn’t get on furniture, and loves lounging in his bed. He’s a polite and well-mannered guy who’s ready to bring his best self to his forever home.

That said, Sam does have one request: he wants to be the only dog in your life. He’s not aggressive at all and does great on walks, but he prefers not to share his toys, furniture, or humans with other pets. He’s also a bit too interested in squirrels, so we’d recommend a cat-free home as well.

Sam is a people-loving pup who’s ready to meet his forever family. If you’re looking for a devoted, smart, and loving companion who will always have your back, Sam is your guy.

 

If you are interested in adopting/meeting Sam, please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet!

The adoption fee of $200 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!

*please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

Go meet their pets

We are not a shelter. We are a group of pet lovers and advocates who are committed to targeted rescue. Starfish Animal Rescue is a licensed rescue that is run by an all volunteer staff.
Once we rescue a dog or cat, it is placed in one of our foster homes until we are able to find it a suitable home. We are happy to set up an appointment to meet our pets once we receive and review your completed application.

We do our best to process applications quickly but please understand that we are a foster based rescue and that our volunteers work jobs; many are full time. Sending in a completed application is the best way to facilitate this process. You can go on our website www.starfishanimalrescue.com and download an application
Once your application is reviewed, we will put you in contact with the dog's foster family to set up a time to meet the pet of your choice!
Thank you for supporting our rescue and what we are trying to accomplish in southeastern Kentucky.
