Story
💔 Meet Lucy — the little dog who still believes in love. 🐾 Lucy was found tied to a tree, her body showing she’d just had puppies. She’s estimated around 2 years old and still very much a puppy at heart, full of joy, curiosity, and hope. We believe Lucy was kept in a basement or garage before she was rescued. Because of that, she’s still learning her house manners, but she’s catching on quickly with consistency and patience. She’s such a smart, eager girl who just wants to make you proud. She is an absolute lover and snuggles up like a nice heated blanket 🐾 Lucy loves her chew toys — she keeps one in every room like little treasures she’s collected now that she finally has a safe place to call home. 🧸 She adores other dogs and will play with them all day long, and she’d love to be friends with cats too (though her excitement can be a bit much for some). After all she’s survived, Lucy deserves a family who will give her the love and security she’s been missing. She’s ready for her second chance — could it be with you? 💕

Story
Meet Chief! Chief is a handsome, medium-sized mixed breed around 5–7 years old and weighing about 41 lbs. He’s neutered, heartworm negative, up to date on all vaccinations, and ready to find his forever home! Chief is house-trained, crate-trained, and walks nicely on a leash. He’s good with most other dogs (if there are other dogs in the house we suggest a meet and greet with the other dogs) and great with kids, but would do best in a home without cats. This friendly guy loves to play with his chew toys and is always up for an adventure — especially if it involves a car ride! Chief’s the perfect mix of playful and easygoing, making him a wonderful companion for an active family or anyone looking for a loyal, happy friend. If you’re ready to add some fun, love, and tail wags to your life, Chief is your guy! 🐾 Adopt Chief through All Starr Pets Rescue today! 🐾

Story
🐾💙 Meet Champ! 💙🐾 Champ is an approximately 1-2 year old pitty mix with the biggest heart and the cutest face to match! He’s still a young pup, which means he’s full of that silly, goofy puppy energy that keeps everyone smiling. At the same time, he’s already learning the ropes of being a good boy—he’s potty-trained, though he may have an occasional accident here and there (hey, nobody’s perfect!). Champ absolutely loves people and is wonderful with kids. He’s also great with other dogs, so if you already have a furry friend at home, Champ would love a built-in playmate. The only thing on his “no thank you” list? Cats. Champ thinks the world is better without them, so he’ll do best in a cat-free home. This sweet boy is looking for a family that will give him plenty of love, guidance, and playtime. He’s the kind of dog who will happily join in on walks, zoomies in the yard, or couch cuddles after a long day. With his puppy charm and lovable personality, it won’t take long for him to wiggle his way into your heart. If you’re ready for a best friend who will grow up right by your side, Champ is waiting for you!

🐾💖 Meet Chanel! 💖🐾 Beautiful, bouncy, and full of love — that’s Chanel, a gorgeous Pittie mix with a heart as big as her smile! 🐶✨ Chanel’s story began in a tough place. She and her siblings were rescued from a horrible situation, but thanks to love and care, she’s learned what kindness feels like — and she’s ready to start her next chapter in a forever home of her own. 💕 This sweet girl is full of energy and joy! She loves to play outside, romp around with the other dogs, and soak up every bit of sunshine she can. 🌞 If Chanel could live outside all day, she absolutely would — she’s happiest when she’s got room to run, play, and explore. She’s a little shy at first, but it doesn’t take long for her affectionate, goofy personality to shine through. Once she knows you, she’ll shower you with love and tail wags! 🥰 Chanel is great with kids, though she’s still learning her boundaries — she’s just so excited to have friends! Chanel gets along with other dogs and does well with cats, too. She may like to give chase, but she’s a smart girl who listens when told “no.” 👏 She’s also close to being potty trained, and with a little consistency, she’ll have it mastered in no time. Born around December 10, 2024, Chanel is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and completely ready to find her forever family. 🏡 Could Chanel be your new best friend? 💗 Application to adopt https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/STRR/Dog #AdoptChanel #RescueDog #PittieLove #AdoptDontShop #ForeverHome #RescueIsTheBestBreed #PlayfulPup

Story
Dodo is a sweet senior gentleman with a tail that never stops wagging. When he first arrived at the shelter, he was underweight and a little down on his luck—but with good food, care, and plenty of love, Dodo is thriving! He's steadily gaining weight and showing more pep in his step every day. At his core, Dodo is a cuddlebug. He lives for affection—leaning in for pets, offering gentle kisses, and curling up next to anyone willing to share a little warmth. Meal time? Oh, it’s his favorite time of day! This boy never misses a meal and will look at you with those big, soulful eyes like you’re serving a five-star feast. Despite his age, Dodo has so much life and love left to give. He’s calm, gentle, and would be the perfect companion for someone who wants a loyal buddy to share quiet moments, soft beds, and snack breaks. If you’re ready to open your heart to a senior dog who will adore you endlessly, come meet Dodo. He is up to date on vaccines and neutered.The shelter can be reached at 937-498-7201 to schedule a time to meet. Or please feel free to come in during business hours.
