Star's Story

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/. Dog's Name: Star (STA0525ALAFD) Estimated Breed: Plott Hound mix Approximate Age: 9 months Approximate Weight: 40 LBS Currently Living at: Boarding Adoption Fee: $400 DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Star! This pretty brindle gal was rescued from a crowded shelter in rural Alabama. She has been given a second chance in life and is ready to steal your heart. Star is playful and friendly. She would make an excellent hiking and adventure partner. Looking to add another dog to your home? Star does great other dogs and would love a canine companion. At her young age, she is in her prime for training and socialization. Star is truly a bundle of love waiting to shower her affection on a deserving family. Her companionship promises endless laughter, fun, and a unique bond that only a pet like Star can offer. Submit an application today and give this very deserving girl a chance! Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family. Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (at partner vet if not fixed before adoption), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets. Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.

Make a tax-deductible donation today by visiting us at http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/donate/ . Donations help us offset boarding costs and additional medical treatment for those dogs who need it.
