My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Looking for your very own lion king? Then check out Simba, an 8-year old, 9-pound Chihuahua mix who looks amazingly young for his age and is sooooo stinkin’ cute!

In typical Chi fashion, Simba needs a bit of time to warm up to strangers. The ‘lil bugger can play hard-to-get at first, but once he knows you, you’ve got friend for life…and an extremely loyal one! He’s lovely around other dogs and cats, and eagerly greets pups while outside taking his walks. Simba gets excited whenever it’s time to go out, he’s terrific on a leash, and he’s got a lotta pep in his step, wagging his tail from side to side, literally smiling the whole way through.

Simba is very affectionate and will seek pets from those he is familiar with. He likes to be as close to his human(s) as possible, as often as he can be. Once he gets to know you, he's all in, He soaks up love and attention like a sponge, and luxuriates in the tenderness of your touch.

Extremely treat-motivated, Simba will do almost anything for a piece of chicken jerky. He quickly learned sit and stay. He is house trained, but may have an accident here and then when learning his new environment.

But for a few minor quirks, Simba is a very loving, sweet, mellow munchkin who will brighten your day from the second you wake up til the minute you go to bed. He always gives the absolute best greetings everrrrr and you’ll never feel lonely with this foxy fella by your side.

More about this rescue

PupStarz Rescue is an animal welfare group committed to the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs and cats in public shelters at high risk of euthanasia, as well as those in danger of abuse. We are committed to rescuing as many animals as possible, saving over 2,600 dogs and cats since 2015.

PupStarz Rescue is a foster-based rescue, relying on fosters to open their homes and lives to our Animals. Animals in our care receive proper medical care, including alteration, vaccinations, and microchipping.

Following a thorough screening, our animals are placed in loving, responsible, committed forever homes. PupStarz Rescue ensures that adoptions are an appropriate match for both the animal and their new family by educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a furry companion into their lives.

We are committed to the welfare of our "Starz" beyond the adoption process. We maintain open communication with our adopters to ensure a smooth transition, and offer additional support such as positive training techniques.

Founded in 2015, PupStarz Rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)3, no-kill, animal rescue organization.
