Meet Rufus! He’ll be 8wks old and ready to go to his new home on 6/27. Although we can never say for certain what his breed is, he appears to be a boxer/ terrier mix.

Rufus says: I am a cute little boy with lots of energy. I like to be held by my foster mom but I love to play! I love to eat! I am usually running around and plays in my pen. Then I join my brother and sister when they are taking their nap.

He is working on potty training and will do best in a home with people there to help him grow into the best adult pup he can be!

If you are interested in adopting/meeting , 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 $500 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.
