NB: We do not rehome interstate or to applicants under 25. It is our policy not to rehome dogs in the Sunraysia area. As rescue groups have transported thousands of homeless dogs from Mildura and Sunraysia pounds over the last decade, we do not intend to send any back there.

Star has been with us since she was 3 months old so we know her well and she is a sweet girl.
Star is the instigator of play and chasings other puppy companions but is the first to submit, roll on her back and wiggle around. She is typically a playful puppy who loves to play tug and chew toys (and the furniture, shoes, socks…). A super smart little girl who has mastered sit and shake, very close to having drop. She comes when called, knows stay and is very polite waiting for meals and treats. LOVES food and at the hint of it being meal time she will follow you around, sitting dutifully every time you stop moving, in the hope that the food is close by.
Star is an independent lass and will happily take herself outside to a sunny spot or into her crate to spend time chewing or napping. She loves belly rubs and will give you a little nudge with her paw if you stop and she’s not had enough. While she’s not a huge cuddler she will let you know when she needs some loving by coming up onto the couch next to you and laying her little head on your shoulder.
If you throw a toy for her to chase, she does this gorgeous little pounce when she gets to it. Then swiftly take it off to chew.
She is still learning about cats and does chase but is easily distracted away. Star has spent the majority of her time with at least one other dog as a companion (from before and while in care) so would love to have another medium to big dog to play with. She has preferred being outside chasing with a big 30+ kg dog rather than a smaller pug cross.
While you’re here – be sure to check out Star’s sibling Toby.

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed and flea treated. All necessary vet work such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment is also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.
