My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Remi came to the shelter with 4 litter mates. Three have been adopted, but Remi and his sister Gemini are still looking for homes. Remy is approximately 2 years old as of March 2024,

He's especially sweet and gentle. He loves to play with other dogs. Originally fearful of the outside world, Remi now enjoys exploring and taking walks. When he looks up at you with his hound dog eyes, you can't help but feel the love!

Remi will do best and gain confidence in a quieter home with a single person or adult only family. He needs a patient adopter who's willing to put in consistent work to help him become a fully confident canine companion.

His perfect home comes with a fenced yard so he can run and play, and a family dedicated to giving him lots of love and plenty of exercise. Although he can be separated from his sister, Gemini, they are bonded. It would be great if Remi and his sister Gemini could be adopted together. Otherwise, ideally he’ll go to a family with another friendly, playful dog.

After a DNA test, we were surprised to learn test that Remi is 50% Great Pyrenees, 14.3% Bluetick Coonhound,13.7% Chow Chow, 11.7% Labrador Retriever, and 10.3% German Shepherd.

Remi is neutered, up to date on shots, microchipped, heartworm negative, and ready to go home!

More about this rescue

Save The Animals Rescue Team II (S.T.A.R.T. II), started in 1989, is a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 status organization dedicated to alleviating the plight of homeless and abandoned companion animals. Twice a week we visit a local pound and take as many adoptable animals as we can. These animals are provided veterinary care, clean living conditions, exercise and socialization.

We work with potential adopters to find that perfect match…..giving them a "fur"- ever home for life. In addition, we educate the public on the importance of spaying/neutering as well as offering low cost options, vaccinations, preventive medications, and proper living conditions for their new and existing pets.

This lifesaving work is critical for many of these unfortunate animals, since their only crime was to be born unwanted. Since our inception, we have rescued and placed over 7,000 dogs and cats.
