About this Dog
Starshine is a beautiful, sensitive soul whoâs slowly learning that the world isnât such a scary place. Like many dogs whoâve experienced stress and uncertainty, she needs a bit of time and patienceâbut the glimpses weâve seen of her affectionate, intelligent personality make it clear: sheâs worth the wait.When Starshine first arrived at the shelter, she was understandably overwhelmed. New people, loud sounds, unfamiliar handlingâit was all a lot for her. Sheâs not quick to offer trust, but when she does, itâs genuine and heartwarming.Starshine is currently paired with a playful retriever mix, and theyâre doing beautifully togetherâinteracting appropriately and showing healthy dog-dog communication. She has shown that she can be vocal and assertive when correcting another dogâs behavior (especially if boundaries are crossed), but she does so appropriately and with clear communication.

100% of STAR SHINE's balance will be sent to whoever adopts STAR SHINE.
Adopt STAR SHINE and Receive STAR SHINE's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, STAR SHINE's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is STAR SHINE's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the STAR SHINE, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming STAR SHINE's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and STAR SHINE was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, STAR SHINE’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the STAR SHINE’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, STAR SHINE’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
