Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Jetson! This sweet Shih Tzu mix, born around July 16, 2023, has had a rough start in life but is ready to find a loving home. He and his friend Louie were living in a training lot for about eight weeks, essentially on their own and trying to survive in a tough situation, until things took a tragic turn. During their time in the VIA lot, Jetson’s friend Louie was sadly hit by a car, and another dog from their group went missing around the same time. Cold, scared, and desperate for help, Jetson and Louie were eventually rescued thanks to an experience trapper who brought them to our safety. Jetson is a shy but a sweet boy who desperately wants to be loved, though he needs time and patience to warm up. He does well with other dogs and will let you pick him up and hold him, but he’s still learning to trust. Jetson’s ideal home is one where someone understands the importance of giving him space to adjust at his own pace. He’s a gentle boy who just needs the right person to help him come out of his shell. Jetson’s adoption fee is $300, which includes his neuter, up-to-date vaccines, heartworm test, and prevention (ProHeart and Bravecto). He is available for transport to several states for an additional $225. If you're ready to offer Jetson a patient, loving home, apply today at www.adoggie4you.org. Jetson is ready to find the family who will help him blossom into the wonderful companion he’s meant to be!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 19, 2025, 9:03 pm

Story

Love at first sight is quite amazing and it is even more incredible when you find that with our boy Lo. He has a face anyone will fall in love with. His looks only scratch the surface because underneath his exterior is a lot of love in a compact body. Lo is a one-year-old shih tzu who weighs around 15 pounds. Good things do come in small packages and Lo is ready to prove it. His background is one of uncertainty, but he found himself one day in a family and the next at a shelter. Adjusting to the changes has been a challenge for Lo but with time, space and patience, Lo has blossomed. What was just underneath the surface was a fun, goofy. playful little guy just waiting to break free. He is a medium energy boy with lots of room in his life for play and friends. Lo does well with other dogs, and he would do best in a home of older children over the age of 12. He has not had the opportunity to meet a cat since coming into rescue so that is an unknown at this time. Lo wants to do the right thing by his forever family, so he is learning all he needs to learn with his house, crate and leash training. He is taking one step at a time, but he knows that he will master all three with the assistance of his family. This sweet boy will certainly be a cherished family member in the hearts of his forever family. He will be a joy for all those around him and his family will have all the bragging rights to talk up the wonderful canine companion, Lo.The adoption fee for Lo is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us.If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.January 30, 2025, 6:56 am
