Pittsburgh Pet of the Week: Starship, a 5-Year-Old Mixed Breed
A generous donor has sponsored Starship's adoption donation. Make plans to meet her at Animal Friends!
Breed: Mixed Breed (Medium)
Sex: Female
Age: 5 years
Weight: 46 pounds
Meet Starship!
Starship came to us as a return after her owner was no longer able to care for her. She is only five years old and still has a whole life ahead of her! She is a high energy and playful pup, who takes some time to get used to new people.
She is extra nervous around strangers, so multiple meet and greets may be necessary so she can get comfortable before going home. Once she is comfortable, she is the star of everyone’s world, captivating the attention of everyone around her who she loves.
Starship is not able to live in communal locations such as apartment complexes, and should live in a no-cat, adult-only household. She could live with another dog, pending a successful meet and greet. Interested?
Starship is one of our Extra Loved residents. Although all of our resident animals get plenty of love, many of them come from backgrounds where they may need a little extra care, extra attention and extra patience. To help this special resident find her adoptive home, a generous donor has sponsored her adoption donation to help them feel extra loved!
Interested? Fill out an application at Thinkingoutsidethecage.org to apply.
Please read our adoption guidelines and start your application before coming to meet one of our animals in person. A typical adoption can take up to an hour. Please visit at least one hour before closing if you plan to adopt that day.
