My story

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

Meet Jethro!

This 1.5-year-old, 38-lb hound mix from Tennessee is equal parts goofball, cuddle bug, and adventure buddy. Jethro has never met a stranger — he loves adults, men, women, the elderly… truly anyone willing to say hi or offer him a pet. He’s the kind of dog who leans his whole body into you during scratches, and it’s absolutely adorable.

Jethro is an energetic, outdoors-loving boy who’s always down for a walk. Squirrels and neighborhood cats? Yeah… he has opinions about them and will bark, but he’s responding beautifully to training and positive reinforcement. Outside he’s playful and curious; inside he’s a total nap king who snoozes hard once the excitement is over.

He loves toys of all kinds — plush, chew, squeaky, you name it — though plush toys don’t stand a chance (the stuffing never survives). Recently he discovered balls, and according to Jethro, it’s the greatest thing that has ever happened to him. He’s very treat-motivated, smart, and quick to learn. He already knows sit and come, and he’s working on his “look” command to help him focus on walks.

Jethro is house trained, crate trained at night, and overall such a good boy. During the day he may whine for a minute when crated, but he settles quickly with a chew toy. He’s shown a bit of separation anxiety and he’s newly fascinated by countertops, but he’s extremely responsive when corrected.

He’s unsure around other dogs and will bark from excitement, not fear, so slow intros are best. He’s not a fan of cats, though it doesn’t appear to be aggression — just classic hound enthusiasm.

Jethro is the perfect mix of playful and easygoing:
- Energetic on walks
- Calm and snoozy at home
- Silly, smart, curious, and affectionate
- An amazing companion who just wants to be near his people

If you’re looking for a loving, funny, big-hearted pup to share adventures and lazy nights with, Jethro is your guy.

More about this rescue

PupStarz Rescue is an animal welfare group committed to the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs and cats in public shelters at high risk of euthanasia, as well as those in danger of abuse. We are committed to rescuing as many animals as possible, saving over 4,500 dogs and cats since 2015.

PupStarz Rescue is a foster-based rescue, relying on fosters to open their homes and lives to our Animals. Animals in our care receive proper medical care, including alteration, vaccinations, and microchipping.

Following a thorough screening, our animals are placed in loving, responsible, committed forever homes. PupStarz Rescue ensures that adoptions are an appropriate match for both the animal and their new family by educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a furry companion into their lives.

We are committed to the welfare of our "Starz" beyond the adoption process. We maintain open communication with our adopters to ensure a smooth transition, and offer additional support such as positive training techniques.

Founded in 2015, PupStarz Rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)3, no-kill, animal rescue organization.
