I'm ready for my new family!

Note from SBR (for application purposes): Starlight is posted and in our database as Hari since that is the name she came with.  

Hello, my foster family calls me Starlight because it promises a bright new chapter and they happen to think I’m a little piece of cosmic magic brought down to Earth with a radiance that cannot be dimmed.  I tend to agree and I love the idea of being a luminous energy that has arrived to lift the spirits of everyone around me.  

Let me tell you a little about myself.  I’m 11 years old and ready to retire in peace as the undisputed queen of my castle. I look forward to spending my golden years being pampered and adored. After all I have been through, I deserve it!

I’m searching for my forever home where I will be the only pet, as I do love being the center of your universe.  An adult-only home, or one with older children would be ideal …  a family dynamic that aligns with my appreciation of a calm and serene vibe.

I don’t really need a fenced yard for romping, as long as you don’t mind taking me out on leash to do my business.  I enjoy spending my time curled up on the couch or sprawled out in my comfy bed, close to my people.  I take my relaxation very seriously and I am an expert couch potato, with a little play time here and there to rip the squeaker out of my stuffed toys.

I am a wonderfully independent soul, and I love to turn every walk into my own little exploration of the world. I guess you could say that I’m a free spirit.  I simply ask that you honor my rhythm and allow the adventure to unfold naturally. Some days, I will happily trot along for miles and then there are some days when I will suggest that we skip the long walk and settle into a Netflix binge or some Zen music.

If you are looking for a lovely, senior lady who has perfected the balance of being a total sweetheart with a dash of independent charm, then look no further.  Here I am … ready to light up your life!

Please note: Our rescue is foster-based and cannot hold dogs for future adoption due to travel, home renovations, or schedule changes. Adopters must be prepared to welcome their new companion within a reasonable timeframe.

We do our best to ensure every dog is as healthy and prepared as possible, but we ask adopters to understand that rescue dogs may need time to decompress and adjust. They are not perfect — they are simply in need of patience, understanding, and a second chance.
