Story
Meet Ramekin! No, she is not a small ceramic dish used for baking soufflé, though she is absolutely sweet, and guaranteed to rise straight into your heart! This striking, tricolor girl is currently a 6-month-old Affenpinscher mix who already weighs a sturdy 26 pounds. While purebred Affenpinschers are traditionally toy sized monkey dogs famous for their expressive, mustachioed faces and big personalities, Ramekin clearly has some mystery large breed genetics in her family tree. She is well on her way to becoming a large dog, weighing between 61 to 90 pounds fully grown, giving you all the spunky, charming traits of her breed heritage packaged into a much bigger, fluffier love bug.Ramekin has a personality that is absolutely shining. Ramekin is a total love bug who thoroughly enjoys the company of other dogs and children, making her a fantastic fit for a bustling home. Ramekin has not been introduced to cats, so it is unknown how she will be with them. Because she is a 6-month-old adolescent, adopting her comes with the big responsibility of continuous training, socialization, and providing plenty of outlets for her youthful energy. Her new family will need to commit to the time, structure, and positive reinforcement required to help her blossom into a well-mannered adult giant. If you have a stray shoe or two that you do not mind sacrificing to the puppy teeth gods while she finishes growing, you are exactly who she is looking for!Like any typical canine teenager, her house training, leash walking, and crate training are all active works in progress. She is smart and eager to learn, but she is still figuring out that outside is for business, walks are meant to be in a straight line, and her crate is a cozy place for sweet dreams. The ideal family for Ramekin is an active, patient household ready to embrace the chaotic beauty of a growing puppy.If you have been searching for a companion who is part comedic monkey dog, part full size bundle of love, and 100 percent good girl, Ramekin is ready to dish out a lifetime of devotion. Apply to adopt her today, before someone else scoops up this perfect recipe for love! * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Ramekin is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us.If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.October 16, 2026, 6:55 am

Story
🐾 MEET DAISY, DOZER & POPEYE — THREE SWEET LITTLE SOULS LOOKING FOR THEIR FOREVER HOMES! 🐾 💕 Three siblings. Three unique personalities. One thing in common: they all deserve a family who will love them forever. Meet Daisy, Dozer, and Popeye, three adorable 8-month-old siblings who were surrendered by their owners in the South Texas area near the Mexico border. Sadly, their owners wanted them when they were tiny and cute, but when they grew bigger, they no longer wanted the responsibility of caring for them. 💔 These sweet babies deserve so much better, and we’re hoping their happy endings are just around the corner! 🐶 DAISY — The Chocolate Girl 🍫 Female | 8.8 lbs | Dark chocolate Daisy is a super-friendly, energetic, and playful little girl! She loves other dogs and would really benefit from having a canine companion in her forever home. She would be thrilled to have active kids to play with and a backyard where she can chase toys and enjoy life. Daisy is also loyal, affectionate, and happiest when her humans are nearby. 🐶 DOZER — The Chocolate-and-White Boy 🤎 Male | 9.1 lbs | Chocolate and white Dozer is a fun-loving, playful little guy who adores other dogs! He really needs a home with another friendly dog to play with, as he can get lonely without a canine companion. He would make a wonderful family dog, especially with children who enjoy playing and having fun with a furry best friend. Dozer is super friendly, energetic, and devoted to his people. 🐶 POPEYE — The Tiny Runt with a Big Heart 🍯 Male | 6 lbs | Caramel Popeye may be the smallest of the bunch, but he has plenty of love to give! He's more of a lap dog who enjoys a calmer household and snuggling up with his favorite people. Unlike his siblings, Popeye would be perfectly happy as the only dog in the home. If you're looking for a tiny, loyal companion to keep you company, Popeye might be your perfect match! ✨ A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THESE SWEETHEARTS: 🐾 Approximately 8 months old, born around February 1, 2026. 🐾 Tiny at just 6–9.1 lbs, and expected to remain this size. 🐾 Sweet, loyal, loving, and people-oriented. 🐾 They LOVE children and would make wonderful family companions. 🐾 They have met cats and are expected to do well in a home with kitties. 🐾 They are working on house training but haven't mastered it yet, so patience and consistency will be important. 🐾 They alert to unusual noises, so an apartment may not be the best fit. 🐾 They prefer homes where their people are around most of the time. These little shadows love following their humans everywhere and being part of the action! ❤️ WHICH ONE WILL STEAL YOUR HEART? Daisy and Dozer would love homes with another friendly dog and plenty of opportunities for playtime. Popeye would be delighted with a loving family who appreciates a quieter, cuddly companion. All three deserve a family who understands that a pet is a lifelong commitment — not just something cute when they're small. Please consider opening your heart and home to one of these precious babies. They have so much love to give and are just waiting for someone to give them the forever home they've always deserved. 🏡💕 Please share to help Daisy, Dozer, and Popeye find their happily-ever-afters! 🐾❤️ PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION BELOW IF INTERESTED IN ADOPTING: The next step to adopt is to fill out an application on our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This doggy is spayed/neutered, heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport. This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We have mainly adopted only in the Northeast but are expanding to include Midwest and PNW starting in September of 2026 The adoption fee listed ($825) INCLUDES transport from Texas to one or around one of the locations below. Transport goes to or around the following locations every 1, 2 or 3 weeks: Albany, NY - Port Chester, NY area - Anemia, NY Wells, VT and Brattleboro, VT Nashua, NH Willington, CT - Stamford, CT - Dayville, CT Steubenville, OH – Cincinnati, OH – Grove City, OH Grove City, PA and Washington, PA Ridgefield, NJ - Bordentown, NJ - Egg Harbor City, NJ Emmitsburg, MD - Elkton, MD - Hagerstown, MD Falls Church, VA and Glenn Allen, VA Adding new Stops to the PNW: Boise, ID Portland, OR Tumwater, WA – Bothell, WA – Bellingham, WA Missoula, MT – Laurel, MT We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is the best fit for your home.

Story
Roxy is a chihuahua in another dogs body. Sadly she was returned to us because the owners were having a new baby and they didn't think she could handle the excitement that comes with it. We are kinda mad about it but they probably weren't wrong. She is loving, loyal dog who bonds strongly with her owners. She listens well, enjoys cuddling, and is very treat-motivated. She can be territorial and wary of unfamiliar people. She is sensitive to loud or sudden noises and may become anxious with sounds such as beeping, fireworks, or motorcycles. Roxy needs a calm home, would be best with a single owner who wants to sit around and gossip about people. Does not like fun, excitement, parties, kids, surprises, or anything interesting. She just wants to snuggle quietly. Roxy's adoption fee is $275. FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN. The adoption fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea/Tick/Heartworm Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and Treated as Needed. FOCCAS does not DNA test or guarantee breed. She is available only to our Crossville, Tennessee friends.
