Story
Dash is an adult Chihuahua mix who starts off a little shy, carefully sizing up the world before deciding it’s safe to hit the gas. Once he warms up, he transforms into a super sweet, lap-loving companion who thinks your legs are the perfect pit stop. Dash is goofy, energetic, and playful, always ready to zoom around, explore outside, and turn ordinary moments into fun little adventures. He was given up because he didn’t enjoy being kenneled so often, and now he’s hoping for a home where he can stretch his legs, explore, and be part of the action. If you’re looking for a small dog with a big personality who just needs a little patience before showing his lovable, silly side, Dash is ready to race straight into your heart.Dogs: UnknownCats: Maybe!

Story
Max is a great dog loves to play and loves his bones! We have had issues with potty training since the beginning. For the most part he is okay with going potty outside but he wears a diaper inside as he likes to mark around the house. He is also an escape artist so we always take him out on a leash. He’s a great dog. But unfortunately we cannot keep him and we are looking to rehoming him. He knows how to sit, give paw and roll over. Great with kids too

Story
Meet Kirby — a tiny 8-lb chihuahua mix with a big heart that needs time to bloom. At 5 years old, Kirby is a gentle, sensitive soul who is still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. He arrived very scared, and new people, sounds, and environments can feel overwhelming for him. But underneath that worry is a sweet little boy who wants to trust — he just needs the right family to help him get there. Kirby will thrive in a quiet, calm home with someone who understands that progress comes in small steps. He’ll need a patient family willing to let him open up at his own pace, offering soft voices, slow movements, and lots of reassurance. When he feels safe, his personality begins to peek through, and it’s such a gift to watch him make those brave little moments of connection. He does very well with other dogs and might even benefit from having a confident canine friend to show him the ropes. Because of his timid nature and tiny size, we are looking for an adult-only home for him. If you’re the kind of person who finds joy in helping a fearful dog learn to trust — if you’re gentle, patient, and willing to let Kirby set the pace — he could become an incredibly loyal and loving companion.   If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  .
