Adoptable Animal of the Week: Starsky

A Town of Hempstead animal that needs a new home.

  • Name: Starsky
  • Case Number: 20206078
  • Breed: Chihuahua
My name is Starsky and I am a happy-go-lucky, friendly little dude!
    I make friends quickly with new people, even the most unusual of strangers, and love to be petted and massaged. Though I'm not terribly playful now, I may become moreso once in the home.

    Because of my size, I should be with older children who will be respectful and careful when handling me. I am a little uncomfortable with some handling (snout).

    I will readily share my resources with people. I'm a pushy dog player, ready to jump or hump, and a close sniffer. I'd do best having play dates and developing friendships with patient dogs who won't take offense to my antics.

    I don't know any basic commands but I'm eager to learn for a taste of my favorite treats. I am proud to say that I walk very nicely on the leash. Training will help us forge a relationship.
