ght ears. His most charming feature is that his ears are almost bigger than his face; he could practically use them to fly the Millennium Falcon! Rey weighs about 34 pounds at almost 7 months old. Because he is still young, expect him to grow some more. It is estimated that he will reach up to 60 pounds at full growth, making him a medium-sized dog. His short coat makes him physically low maintenance, but his energy levels are another story: they are off the charts, which is typical of a young dog. Rey has been fostered with multiple dogs, so suffice it to say, he is great with other dogs. He also has a good relationship with children. His energy level would be a perfect fit for families with dogs and children, so he has someone to run around with. Fun fact about him? In addition to loving playing with other dogs and children, he also loves his toys. His favorite toy is currently a stuffed Kong bear. He has not been destructive with his toys, which indicates how sweet and gentle this boy is. His house training, leash training and crate training are still works in progress. Give him some time and he will impress you with his quick learning followed by tons of positive reinforcement. As mentioned above, he is an active doggie so he would absolutely thrive in an equally active family that may have dogs and children to keep up with his bounds of energy. He would also love a large backyard to run around and explore and possibly learn some agility training. Rey is waiting for his forever home. How could you not fall in love with those beautiful eyes? If you are ready to meet your match in energy and activeness, look no further. Come meet Rey today and you will not regret it. * 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 Rey 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.
