Shepherd / Great Dane / Mixed (short coat) Dog

Colby the Dog needs a home


STAR is a foster-based rescue. All our rescue animals stay in foster homes until adoption. We do not have a central facility. If you want to meet any of our adoptables please submit an application. 



Hi my name is Colby! I'm a friendly guy but children move too fast for me and they make me nervous :(  I love my family though and enjoy being with them!  I am a tall dog and I weigh 85lbs and I have HUGE up ears.  I know my basic commands such as sit and come.  I also know "go to your crate".  I like my crate and don't mind being in there while my foster family is away.  I am quiet and calm in there.  I enjoy being around other dogs and I love to play but would also be fine being an only fur kid.  I am good in a fenced yard and also good on a tie out so a fence is not needed.  To be honest, I would fit in almost anywhere including an apartment.  I like to play with a ball or rope toy but I am a pretty laid back guy and would also be fine as a couch potato. I have seen a professional trainer as well so some of the hard work has already been done for my future family. If you are interested in adding me to your family, please put an application in for me or email my foster mom at [email protected] for more information about me.




All STAR animals come vetted, Up to Date (UTD) on age appropriate shots and testing, spay and neutered (if of age,) and microchipped.



AGE DISCLAIMER:
Unfortunately, most of the orphaned animals that come into our rescue looking for homes don’t bring birth certificates. Sometimes we know our pets’ ages. Sometimes we don’t. So we make our best guess based on the condition of their teeth and the veterinarians best guess.
  BREED DISCLAIMER:
Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality,
not
by breed label .
Microchips:
For the safety of our dogs and peace of mind of our fosters and adopters, STAR microchips all dogs prior to adoption with Petlink Microchips. Please understand that all dogs MUST still wear a collar with ID tags (which include your current information) AT ALL TIMES. Please remember, our foster dogs are extremely important to us-- we will always take any of our dogs back, if for any reason you can't keep your adopted dog. Never surrender him/her to a shelter!
