he weighs 34 pounds, at age 4 years and 6 months. She is comfortable with other dogs and the kids but has not been exposed to a cat since coming into rescue. Little is known about her past. What we can tell is that someone decided her life was worth saving, maybe because she is a tripod. In addition, her personality must have warmed their hearts. Nora doesn’t think being a tripod is a big deal. She just wants a warm and loving family who will be patient and accepting. It will be such a new world for her as she may not have walked wood floors or climbed stairs. Positive rewards will go a long way to help her adapt to a new home. This girl knows her stuff as she is house trained, and leash trained. She will need more time and exposure to master her crate training. Tripods, also known as tripawds, and need regular exercise. On walks, let your tripawd set the pace. Aim for multiple short walks throughout the day instead of one long walk, which could be too physically taxing. Along with walks, swimming is an excellent source of exercise for your three-legged dog and will help their limbs and joints stay healthy without putting any added stress on them. With all activities, keep an eye out for signs of fatigue. If your dog is slowing down, panting, or stopping for frequent breaks, that is a sign it is time to head home. Tripawds have very few limitations and a whole lot of love to give. Provide them with the care they need and they will go on to live long and happy lives, no extra fuss required. Are you willing to make Nora part of your life? Read on! * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Nora is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us. If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
