My Story
Meet Starla! Starla is a stunning 1 year old doberman mix who was rescued from the euthanasia list at a rural shelter. Because of her tough start at life, she can sometimes take minute to warm up to new people. But don't be alarmed, after she gets a good look at you, this girl is all wiggles and happy to come up for pets. It has been a gift watching Starla grow from a scared girl to a confident companion who wants to please and may sometimes decide to talk back in her own adorable way.
Starla has done incredibly well in a foster home with kids of all ages, dogs of all sizes, and proved to be an amazing fill in mom to some foster puppies. She is house trained, kennel trained, loves walks, and would do great at the dog park. If you are looking for a dog that is ready to play just as much as she is ready to cuddle on the couch, then this is your girl.
Starla is 50lbs, up to date on shots, spayed, and heartworm negative.

**Please do not use the "Introduce Yourself" feature. The information needed to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. An inquiry, question, or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application. All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info would be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the number of introductions/questions received (hundreds daily) we ask you submit an application on our website (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).
The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention. Please see our website for more information.
