Hi! My name is Dixie, I am under 1 year old and weigh 35 lbs! I am a bit shy and am probably a Shepherd mix. I am a very sweet girl who loves belly rubs and a companion to sit with on the couch. I will pretty much melt into your lap! I would love a confident fur companion to provide me with guidance and help me see how safe and wonderful the world is. I am potty trained, but I am still working on basic commands. A home with adults or with respectful kids 10+ would be ideal. I know I can make a wonderful family dog. Come meet me and I am sure you will love me!
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 $450 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. Adoption fees are the primary way that Starfish is able to continue to our mission to provide medical care, transport, and rescue to dogs in overcrowded shelters. Find out more about our mission here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/
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.
