Story
Meet Patsy!  This sweet girl is an Australian Shepherd/Lab mix, born mid-June 2026, and currently weighing in at a petite 4 lbs. Patsy is small but mighty — sweet, smart, and well-behaved. She does well with children but will thrive best in a calmer, quieter home where she can feel settled and secure. The details: Breed: Australian Shepherd/Lab mix Approximate DOB: Mid-June 2026 Current weight: ~4 lbs Temperament: Sweet, smart, well-behaved Good with kids: Yes Best fit: A calmer, quieter household A few more things about Patsy: She's crate trained and currently sleeps in a dog playpen. She's very smart and well-behaved, and she loves other small dogs — though she's still a bit timid around larger dogs, so a thoughtful introduction process will help her feel comfortable. If you're looking for a smart, sweet little girl who'll settle in beautifully to a peaceful home, Patsy could be exactly what you're looking for!    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 .

Story
Rolo is an adorable Aussie mix boy born June 9, 2026, and he’s one happy little pup! He’s playful, cuddly, and absolutely loves a good belly rub. If you’re looking for a puppy who will happily snuggle up with you after playtime, Rolo may be your guy!   Rolo is dog-friendly and busy learning all the important things about being a puppy. He’s looking for a patient, loving family who will continue to help him with training, socialization, and all the adventures that come with puppyhood.   A securely fenced yard is a must for this playful little guy so he has a safe place to run, explore, and burn off some puppy energy.   Rolo is ready to find his forever family—and he has plenty of cuddles and belly rubs to give!

Story
I’m T-Bear. One Eye, Big Heart, Still Just a Baby Fluffball! I’m a puppy. I’m an Australian Shepherd puppy, which means I’m going to grow into a bigger, smart, active kind of dog. I was found alone in a field. Somewhere along the way, I lost one of my eyes and had surgery to remove it. That part is behind me now. What’s in front of me is everything else. I’m sweet. Really sweet. I love to be held. I’ll curl right into you like that’s where I’ve always belonged. I’m a cuddle bug through and through, even with everything I’ve been through. I’m still all puppy. I play, I chew, I explore, I fall asleep fast. I’m learning the basics from the ground up. Potty training, routines, how to listen, how to be in a home. My eye doesn’t slow me down. I move, I adjust, I figure things out. I just do life a little differently, and I’m doing just fine. With my breed, I’m going to be smart. I’ll need engagement, training, and someone who understands I won’t just be a sit-around dog. I’ll grow into that energy and need direction. Right now, I just need a place to land. Someone patientSomeone kindSomeone who sees a little puppy who’s already been through a lot and still chooses to love I’m ready to grow into my life. I just need someone to grow with me. ##2714725##

Kiwi came to us with his brother Coconut when his family was having a baby and decided they wouldn’t have time for them. While they are very beautiful dogs, Australian Shepherds are very smart and active dogs who need an active lifestyle.
