Story
Ernie is a 11-month-old Shepard / Husky mix. He is up to date with all vaccinations and has been neutered and has a microchip. He is smart and loves walks, Ernie is one of the gentlest dogs taking treats that I have ever known. Ernie has attended doggie daycare for socialization. He was crate trained and sleeps at night in a crate. Ernie has way more energy than I have and needs someone with time to devote to him. Ernie loves the outside and to run. Ernie deserves an owner who can give him what he deserves and with my schedule that's not always an option.

Story
Need to rehome due to our recent medical issues, not hers. She is an 8 month old pure bred gsd puppy whom we bought from a show line breeder. It is so hard, but this would be best for her. She deserves to be able to go for long walks and be a goofy pup. A fenced yard would be ideal where she can sniff all she wants. She is very shy and takes time to warm up to strangers. Loves to give snuggles and is very affectionate with her people.

Story
Meet Sage! Sage is a gentle German Shepherd boy born at the end of April who is looking for a very special kind of home. He’s a sensitive soul who can be shy with new people and new situations, and he needs a patient, understanding family who will give him the time and space he needs to feel safe. Sage does best in a calm, predictable environment where he isn’t rushed to “be brave.” Trust is something he builds slowly, but it is incredibly meaningful once earned. Having a confident, friendly resident dog in the home is required for Sage. Another dog helps him feel secure, shows him the ropes, and gives him the reassurance he needs to come out of his shell. When Sage does trust you, he truly shines. He becomes loving, loyal, and deeply connected to his people, making him a wonderful companion for someone who understands that the best relationships are worth waiting for. His ideal family will celebrate small victories, move at his pace, and find joy in watching a shy puppy grow into a confident dog. Sage is looking for a home filled with patience, kindness, and another canine friend to guide him. In return, he’ll offer quiet devotion, gentle affection, and a bond that’s built on trust and understanding.   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.

Story
Meet Barrett, a handsome 5-year-old German Shepherd weighing in at 82 lbs. This loyal boy is fully housebroken and ready to find his forever family. Barrett is the perfect mix of energetic and affectionate—he loves going for walks and spending time outdoors, especially in a securely fenced yard where he can explore and play to his heart’s content. He gets along well with cats and has done fine with other dogs. Because he can sometimes be a little mouthy when excited, Barrett would do best in a home without small children. He’ll thrive with an experienced owner who enjoys staying active and can provide structure, companionship, and lots of love. If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy who will also be your best friend, Barrett is your guy! The adoption fee of $150 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.
