Story
Copper is a puppy born around 11/19 who is ready to find his forever home! His breed is a bit of a mystery, but he does have shorter legs like a Dachshund. He has a beautiful, soft red coat and an expressive face that is impossible to resist. His mom weighs only 13 lbs, and based on his current growth, Copper will likely stay on the lower-medium side as an adult. Copper is a wonderful medium-energy puppy. He loves his humans so a family home much of the day with time to spend with him is the best fit. Another dog in the home would be amazing! If you’re looking for a sweet puppy who enjoys both playtime and cuddles, Copper could be the perfect addition to your family!   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  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $400 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 10, 2026, 1:28 pm
