Story
Meet Albert—the pup with the unforgettable ears and an even bigger heart! This 2-year-old, 33-pound Boxer mix is the definition of a loyal best friend. Affectionate and devoted, Albert loves being close to his people and thrives on companionship. When it’s time to play, he’s all in—tug-of-war, tennis balls, stick collecting, and joyful zoomies around the yard are all part of his daily fun. Albert spent much of his first year in a shelter, but since joining his foster family, he has truly come into his own. He’s learning good doggy manners, sleeps soundly in his crate, and is making great progress with potty training. Smart and eager to please, Albert picks up new commands quickly and enjoys having structure and guidance. This sweet, energetic boy would do best in a home with a fully fenced yard in a calm neighborhood where he can play safely and continue building confidence. He loves other dogs and would be happy to have a canine companion. Because of his enthusiasm and energy, a home with children ages 10 and older would be the best fit. Albert is ready to bring love, laughter, and lots of tail wags to his forever home—could it be yours? 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 $200 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.January 21, 2026, 9:43 pm
