My personality

My story

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

Auggie is a serious yet fun guy who may have a small body but a bigger dog's personality. He loves people but he does not love being treated like a doll or a small child. He enjoys cuddling up but needs his space and autonomy respected like any other individual. Auggie makes a great friend and partner and bonds quickly to his family. He is easy to live with and behaves well when going places with you. He loves going for hikes and needs more stimulating activities than being home all the time.

Auggie is fine with dogs big and small except that he gets a grumpy about his space when he is on the couch or bed and bouncy young dogs get up there too. This has led to his nickname Emperor Augustus.

He is probably fine with cats as he doesn't show a lot of prey drive.

He is good on leash and likes car rides. He is housetrained. He is fine home alone.

Auggie is about 2 1/2 years old. He currently weighs 13-15 lbs. He is probably a Yorkshire terrier and shih tzu mix and possibly more.

Go meet their pets

Since we are a foster based rescue and don’t have a shelter all meet and greets must be scheduled and walk-ins are not an option. We will travel throughout the Treasure Valley and surrounding areas/states if that means the dog will find their forever home! When we host adoption/community events we will always post them on our Facebook Page Northern Star Dog Rescue.

More about this rescue

We are Northern Star Dog Rescue, a completely foster based non profit dog rescue! We specifically pull all of our dogs from the euthanasia list (most are there due to no fault of their own) and dogs that are homeless or in bad housing conditions. We take them in and place them in foster homes until we can find them their forever homes! We do what we do because our team has a STRONG love for animals especially those that are in dire situations.
