Like the brightest star in the night sky, Starla is patiently waiting for her forever family to discover her. This sweet girl has been searching for her happy ending for far too long, and we're convinced her perfect match is out there.
Starla can be a little shy when faced with new places and unfamiliar situations. Sometimes the world feels a bit big and overwhelming, but give her a little time, a few tasty treats, and plenty of kindness, and you'll watch her begin to shine. Once she feels safe, her playful personality starts to sparkle!
One of Starla's favorite things is playing with stuffed toys—especially if there's stuffing involved! After some fun, she's happiest curled up on the couch beside her favorite people, enjoying a cozy evening and catching up on her favorite TV shows.
A home with another friendly dog would be ideal for Starla. Having a confident canine companion helps her continue building confidence and reminds her that the world isn't such a scary place after all.
Starla may not be the star that immediately steals the spotlight, but she's the kind that shines steadily and beautifully once you take the time to know her. If you're looking for a loyal companion whose confidence blossoms with love, Starla is ready to light up your life. ⭐❤️

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
