My story

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


Meet Star — the happiest guy on three-and-a-half legs!

Star is a lovable male pit bull whose bright spirit shines even brighter than his name. His front right leg healed a little crooked after an old break, but here’s the best part — Star hasn’t let that slow him down one bit. He walks beautifully, runs with joy, and plays like he invented the game. His zest for life is absolutely contagious.

This handsome social butterfly loves other dogs and greets every person like a long-lost friend. Affectionate, friendly, and always ready for a cuddle, Star is the kind of dog who makes you feel special just by being near him. He enjoys his walks, adores adventure, and is an all-around wonderful companion.

If you’re looking for a cheerful, resilient, dog-loving sweetheart who brings sunshine wherever he goes, Star is your guy. He’s ready to brighten your home — and your life — with all the love he has to give.

Star can’t wait to meet his new family and start his next great adventure.
