Story
First thing first, Starsky has a tumor on his head that is growing very slowly that I cannot pay for to remove. Starsky was originally a stray that was in pretty bad condition (he had a dingy rope around his neck and was overheating). That was 5-7 years ago when I first brought him home. Starsky used to keep running away whenever we opened the door but then we neutered him and he doesn’t run out anymore (not to say he won’t need house training again). Starsky is listed as 14 years old but again he is a stray so he could be any age. Starsky has grey hairs. Starsky has very bad teeth because he doesn’t let me brush his teeth ever (and his nails have never been cut). Starsky does not like being picked up (Starsky still has the stray mentality that we never got to rehabilitate). Starsky often shakes a lot out of nervousness. All that being said Starsky still is a good dog with happy times and has been around a lot of people and has gone on lots of walks. Needs lots of work but is worth it.
