Here's what the humans have to say about me:
NOTE: We have an approved application for Dezi and we will not be taking any other applications unless the adoption does not go through. We will remove Dezi when the adoption is complete or we will remove this note.
Meet Dezi! He is one great little fella; super sweet, super fun, super cute! He is about 2 years old, under 10 pounds. Dezi came into rescue as a stray. He is house trained, crate trained and gets along with everyone and everything. He loves to snuggle, be held like a baby but loves to play and having fun. Dezi's fun is going for a walk and taking a ride in the Jeep and of course a whole lot of attention...
Dezi hasn't had the best of care but his hair is starting to come in nicely and he will have a beautiful coat as he gets healthier.
Dezi's adoption will require.... a fenced yard or fenced area that leads directly into the house that is adequate for exercise. Dezi needs to live with someone that does not work a typical 8 hour work day. Someone that works very part time (not over 3 hours a day), works from home, can take their dog to work or is retired but still active. He would be fine with children 10 or older or with visiting grandchildren. He is good with other dogs and does like to play but would be fine as an only dog with someone that will be active with him.
Star-Mar Rescue is a natural care provider and strives to place our dogs in homes that are already using natural care or are eager to learn. We use no chemicals on our dogs, no commercial flea products (oral or topical), do blood titers instead of randomly vaccinating. Our yards are without fertilizer and weed killer and our homes are toxin free. We feel that dogs can be protected without being harmed by harsh chemicals and unnecessary vaccinations and do best on a species appropriate, no grain, raw diet. Frozen raw diets, freeze dried or dehydrated no grain, raw are easily gotten at many pet stores and on line and are no more expensive than a high quality dry food. This simple step will provide your dog the nutrition needed to keep them healthy and happy for many years unlike feeding a lifetime of processed foods.
We are happy to talk with you about caring for your dogs in a way that helps to keep them disease free long into their senior years, through their teens and even into their 20's. We are convinced that removing unnecessary drugs and feeding a species appropriate food, adds years to our dog's lives. Join millions of dog owners who are learning to protect their dogs using healthy, immune building care methods that will keep your companion vital for many years. You can go to Star-Mar Rescue Natural Care facebook page to learn more.
If you feel that your lifestyle and environment meet with Dezi's needs, please contact Martha at learymjri@aol.com or call 330-466-3667 or 330-262-0515 for an application or more information. Dezi's adoption will require an approved application and a home visit, with adoption completed at his foster home in Columbus, OH. Dezi's adoption fee is $275. We will work to place him within a 2 hour driving distance from his foster home so that we can conduct our own home visit bringing Dezi with us.
