Starling is a 6 year old female Cavalier located in Troy MO
Starling is a sweet, gentle girl with a soft heart and a serious love for cuddles. Cavaliers are known for being affectionate, people-oriented companion dogs, and Starling fits that loving, snuggly nature beautifully. She absolutely loves kids, but like many former breeder dogs, she may be skittish at first if they walk directly toward her. Once everyone is sitting or laying down, Starling is all in and will beg to be picked up so she can cuddle close.
Starling loves her stuffy toys and has the perfect couch potato vibe. Cavaliers are often happiest just being near their people, and Starling is very much a little shadow. She likes to follow her person around, but she does not get underfoot. She also needs a canine companion who won’t mind being followed everywhere, because Starling feels safest and happiest with another dog by her side.
Starling hates leashes. Actually, she detests them. They terrify her, so she will require a secure physical fenced yard. She does not enjoy confinement and is not much of a barker unless she is really scared.
Cavaliers are typically gentle, affectionate, soft-natured dogs who thrive on companionship, routine, and a calm home. They are not a breed that enjoys being ignored or left out of family life, and Starling will do best with someone who wants a close little companion. She is kinda perfect for a couch potato kind of vibe, as long as she has her people, her doggy friend, and a safe fenced yard.
Starling’s adoption fee is $325. She is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines, and has received a dental. She does not have all of her teeth, but she has enough to eat just fine.
