My story

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

🌟💔 MEET ESTRELLA — ABANDONED, BUT STILL SHINING BRIGHT 💔🌟

Some stories break you… and Estrella’s is one of them.
This tiny girl was found abandoned in a park. Alone. Confused. Waiting for her family that never came back. 😢🧡

And yet… despite that terrifying beginning, Estrella never lost her sweetness.
She still wags her tail.
She still leans in for love.
She still searches your eyes hoping to hear the words she’s been waiting for:
“You’re home now.” 💛

🐾 Estrella (Starr) — 7–8 months old, 26 lbs, medium size
A gentle, noble, old soul in a puppy body.
She is potty trained, cat & dog friendly and even shares her bed with the kittens. Every morning, she happily goes for her walk like the brave little girl she is. 🌄💕

✨ Why she’s extraordinary:
• Dog friendly 🐶
• Lives beautifully with cats 🐱
• Curious, loving, noble, and incredibly understanding
• A true “angel dog” — calm, grateful, gentle
• Survived abandonment with her heart somehow still whole 💔➡️💖

Estrella is simply asking for one thing…
A family that will never abandon her again.
A family who sees her light — the one she refused to let go out. 🌟

She is currently safe in a temporary home, but she needs her forever.
She deserves her forever.

More about this shelter

Hello! Thanks for checking us out. We are a 501-c3 non profit rescue and rehab service in Tucson, AZ

We rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dogs from the streets of Mexico in cooperation with other animal rescue organizations in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Our shelter in Hermosillo, Sonora, Vidas Con Causa, currently has over 150 dogs. There, we provide medical care and a loving place for them to heal before coming to the US, then we foster and work on finding the perfect fit for adoption. You can also visit the available dogs at the rescue in Mexico. Our rescue partners spend a lot of time getting to know the dogs and we know MOST of their
perks and quirks!

We help special needs dogs, the amputees, the pregnant Pitties, the MexiMutts, those from small independent shelters who don't get much notice, the cancer patients. We provide round-the-clock care until these dogs are ready for rehoming.
