Story
Meet Pea, a resilient and charming girl who came to us as a stray from our friends at Thomas J. O’Connor Animal Control. While we don't know much about her past, we know her future is bright. Pea is a quiet observer at first who likes to take her time warming up to new people, requiring a little patience and a gentle approach. Once you earn her trust, her true personality shines through—she transforms into the ultimate velcro lap dog who will happily cuddle up by your side. 🐶 Lap Dog Potential: Takes a little time to feel comfortable with new people and prefers no touching until she knows you, but becomes a total lovebug and dedicated lap dog once she feels safe. 🏠 Adult-Only Household: Due to her initial sensitivity around touching, she requires a home with no children. 🐕 Dog Ambivalent: She seems mostly neutral toward other pup pals and doesn't pay them much mind. 🐾 Adorable Personality: Absolutely adorable, complete with a signature "tappy feet" dance and playful little jumps whenever she is excited to see her favorite people. 🩺 Specialized Health Care: She recently had a bladder stone successfully removed and must remain on a prescription diet for life to keep her healthy, so a vet reference is required to adopt. Ready to give this sweet girl the fresh start she deserves? Come meet Pea today! Ready to Adopt? You have two options: #1- VISIT IN PERSON Come during our open adoption hours: Tuesday - Saturday,12:30 - 3:00pm. You’ll be able to meet available dogs in the shelter.

Story
Meet Miami, the sweetest couch potato you’ll ever lay eyes on! While the shelter environment makes her a bit nervous, this gentle girl transforms into a complete cuddle bug once she feels safe. She is happiest when lounging near her favorite people, soaking up affection, and snoring the afternoon away. Give her a couple of days to decompress and settle into her new rhythm, and her bright, loving personality will shine right through. 🛋️ Professional Snuggler: Miami is a low-key couch potato who lives for warm hugs and cozy naps. 🐕 Dog Friendly: She has successfully lived with bigger dogs and does great with canine companions. 🏠 Fully House Trained: She knows to do her business outside and is also trained to use pee pads indoors. 👶 Kid Approved: Miami has lived with children before and handles family life like a champ. ⏳ Needs a Little Time: Shelter life overwhelms her, so she’ll need a few days of patience to decompress and fully warm up to her new family.

Story
Blue is 5 years old and a wonderful dog. He’s always lived with other dogs but as if 2 years ago doesn’t get along with older male chihuahua who is father actually. He’s not trained but listens and is super sweet. He also isn’t spayed. He is my third dog and they are mostly kept in the kitchen. I believe this has stressed him and it’s why he has become aggressive towards my other male dog Rexx. He really just needs a loving a patient person. Blue deserves a good loving home, that can be patient and willing to teach him. I hope someone can really give him a second chance. I don’t want an adoption fee only for him to go to a good home. I will keep him until he finds the perfect new home.

Story
Lilly may be small, but she brings enough energy to fill the whole room. This spirited 6-year-old female Chihuahua Mixed Breed Dog has a beautiful short tan and white coat and a small size (6 pounds) with a personality that is anything but small. Lilly is athletic, playful, and always ready for her next adventure.Lilly has a high energy level and has more pep than many dogs half her age. She loves to run, she is athletic, and she is always ready to play. Lilly has done well with dogs and children, making her a great match for an active family. She has not met a cat, so her relationship with cats is unknown at this time. Her playful personality makes her an excellent companion for someone who enjoys staying active and having fun with their dog.Her house, crate and leash training are in progress. Although many dogs become reliable with house training, accidents can still occur while adjusting to a new home environment. Lilly would do best in a home that can provide plenty of daily exercise, playtime, mental enrichment, and continued training. An active family who has the time and commitment to keep up with her energetic personality will be an ideal match for this athletic girl.If you are looking for a small dog with a big personality and enough energy to keep you moving, Lilly may be your perfect match. She is ready to run, play, love, and finally have a forever family that can keep up with her.* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Lilly is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours.

Story
PLEASE NOTE THAT CHARLEY AND MARLEY ARE BONDED AND MUST BE ADOPTED TOGETHER.Meet Marley, a gentle little soul with a heart that shines bright. This sweet, 11-year-old Chihuahua mix was surrendered through no fault of his own. Marley is incredibly affectionate and adores snuggling with his people. He would be perfectly content being carried around all day, soaking up every bit of attention and affection he can get.Marley was surrendered into rescue with his brother by another mother, Charley (also with DSR). These two are inseparable and bonded to each other in heart and spirit. Marley and Charley have shared their lives together and we are dedicated to seeing they remain together for the rest of their lives. Therefore, they will need to be adopted together in the comfort of a forever family who will open up the doors to welcoming two little senior canine companions into their home. Marley has a lovely tan-and-black short coat and big, soulful brown eyes. Fully grown at just 9 pounds, he is the perfect size for cuddling. He is good with other dogs and does well with children. He has not yet had the chance to meet cats in rescue, so his compatibility with them is still unknown.As a senior dog, Marley offers the kind of companionship that only comes with time. He is steady, gentle, and deeply loyal. He would be happiest soaking up the sunshine, resting in a warm lap, and sharing quiet moments with his person. All he wants is comfort, companionship, and a place where he can finally feel at home. He would be a wonderful match for anyone looking for a devoted companion who already knows how to be a great dog.Marley walks well on a leash, is housetrained and his crate training is in progress. While he may already be housetrained, it is important to remember that accidents can happen as he adjusts to a new home and routine.If you are ready to open your heart and home to this sweet little guy, be sure to apply today!* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Marley & Charley together is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.
