Notes from Starfish Animal Rescue

Hi, my name is March !

I'm a 3.5-year-old 70lb sweetheart looking for my forever family. If you're searching for a loyal best friend and a professional cuddle buddy, I might be your perfect match! I absolutely love being close to my people and will happily soak up all the pets and snuggles you have to offer.

When I'm not cuddling, you'll usually find me playing with my favorite squeaky toys or hanging out outside. Being outdoors is my happy place! I love watching over the yard and keeping an eye on everything going on around me.

I'm a good listener, too. I come when called and know my basic commands. I'm eager to please and enjoy spending time with my humans.

I've worked hard to become the confident boy I am today. New things like hardwood floors, elevators, and loud noises used to make me nervous, but with patience and support, I've learned that those things aren't so scary after all. My journey has helped me grow into a brave and resilient dog who keeps getting better every day.

What I'm really looking for is a family to love. In return, I promise endless cuddles, unwavering loyalty, and lots of happy moments together.

Love, March

The adoption fee of $350 will include spay/neuter, microchip,

age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure

a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe the breed, since our pups all come from shelters, we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!

*Please note that we are a foster home-based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
