Estrella's Story

Meet Estrella — Our Shining Star Looking for a Foster or Adopter! Estrella (Spanish for star) is a sweet, gentle 2-year-old girl in Virginia Beach who’s ready to leave her board-and-train program and finally settle into a loving home. âœ ̈ About Estrella: • 45 lbs, spayed, 4DX negative and on prevention • Great with dogs and cats • Shy at first and a bit fearful of men, but warms up beautifully with patience • Spent the last 2 months building confidence and social skills in a board and train program, her foster/adopter can get all the insights into her training and hopefully help her continue moving forward. Left tied to a rescue gate as a puppy, Estrella has come such a long way and deserves a place to feel safe and loved. She’s not a “just anyone” dog — she needs someone kind and patient — but she will reward you with lifelong loyalty and affection. We are urgently seeking a foster home in Virginia Beach help this girl acclimate back into a home. If you can help this beautiful girl take her next step, we’d be so grateful.

Island Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

After completing our brief online application we will talk with you to learn more about you, your lifestyle and your ideal pet so that we can match you with the perfect dog or cat. We may request a virtual tour of your home or, in some cases, an in person tour. Meet and greets are done with the foster at a location agreed upon. After a successful meet and greet, you can choose to start a trial adoption that will last up to 5 days. After the trial adoption we will either finalize the adoption or return the animal to our foster program. We have a trainer and behavorist that are part of our volunteer team should they be needed to successfully transition your new pet into your home.
