Astro here! Or, as my foster parents call me, Good Boy.  I am a very affectionate, medium energy, 5yr old, 30 lb mix.  While I get along just fine with other dogs, I really am more interested in people than other dogs. It takes me a bit to trust strangers but then I like to give humans lots and lots of kisses  I love my fuzzy squeaky toys and playing tug. One of my favorite things to do is roll around upside down in sheets, pillows and blankets.  I love getting butt and back scratches and will verbalize adorable little grunts when you hit the right spot.  My humans say I am adorable.   I am also a good guard dog and will bark when someone comes to the front door. I would love a home with a fenced-in back yard where I could run around and chase the squirrels. I also like chasing cats, so a cat free home is best for me! I'm working on some basics like "sit", "stay" and how to walk well on a leash. I have a little bit of anxiety (who wouldn't with my sad past?) but, with a regular schedule, I do just fine.  I would love to meet you, take a walk, and kiss you as you give me scratches!

If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  .

The adoption fee of $300 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!
