My name is Star and I'm a Yorkie / Dachshund / Terrier Mix with long body & short legs and wirey hair!
I was rescued in Nov with my puppies from a bad situation. After I weaned my puppies they became sick with distemper. I never got sick but to assure I was free of any danger myself, the vet asked my foster mom to keep me for 3 months before finding my forever family.
I will be available after
Feb 14
.
Here are some things you should know about me:
~ I am 3 yrs old and weigh about 13 pounds with long body & short legs
~ I'm quite shy/timid, especially with men, although I will take treats from my foster dad!
~ I'm housebroke and potty outside.
~ I sleep in my crate at night, but would love to snuggle with you in bed.
~ I live with 3 other dogs and love to run and play with them so it would be great if I could have a furry brother or sister.
~ I need a fenced yard because I do zoomies around the yard!
~ My foster mom says I am a good girl, but you have to be careful when I go by the front door because she calls me a "doordarter"!
~ When I roll over, I expect some belly rubs!
It will take time for me to trust you, but if you are patient with me, I will love you forever.
When I do trust you, I will give you a few kisses to let you know.
