About this Dog
Billy is a goofy and super fun hound-mix puppy. He was born in July of 2024 He is all legs and happy wagging tail and will have you in stitches with how poorly he races around corners when he’s got the zoomies. Billy will likely max out around 40 pounds. And he is super cute with his flopped-over ears and how he tucks his front paws in. Billy had to wait a long time to get into foster, so he is still learning what life outside a shelter crate is like. He is making really great progress on housebreaking and learning the basic commands. He likes to play ruff-and-tumble style so he would make a good little doggie brother to another younger, energetic and playful dog. He chases and plays too rough for any normal cat’s liking. Squeaky toys are his favorite and he loves to toss them up in the air for himself. Because Billy is still a puppy and needs to continue to catch up on his socialization and exposure to the world, his ideal home would be one where he is not left alone for long periods of time. Billy will thrive in a home with another young playful dog. He would not be a good match for older dogs or cats since he chases and plays more than most would want to do. He is still a pup with pup shark teeth so we would suggest a home with kids 10 and older. If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $250 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

Adopt Billy Boy and Receive Billy Boy'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, Billy Boy's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Billy Boy's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Billy Boy, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Billy Boy'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 Billy Boy was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Billy Boy’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Billy Boy’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, Billy Boy’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!
