About this Dog
Small in size, big on personality!Ethel is a spunky, sweet, and smart little pup who’s just as cute as can be—and even cuter in person! With her scruffy coat, tiny legs, and lively spirit, she’s likely a terrier mix. Her mama weighed about 25 lbs, so Ethel will stay on the smaller side, perfect for snuggles and adventures alike. She’s been learning to play with bigger dogs and is doing an amazing job—fearless, friendly, and eager to make friends. And her little butterball belly? Let’s just say it sometimes makes rolling off her back a bit of a challenge, and it's absolutely adorable to watch. She will do best in a home with kids 8 and older. If you're looking for a pup with charm, brains, and a belly made for belly rubs, Ethel is your girl! 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 $550 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 Ethel and Receive Ethel'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, Ethel's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Ethel's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Ethel, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Ethel'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 Ethel was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Ethel’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Ethel’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, Ethel’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!
