My story

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

Got a thing for celebrities? Then Def Leppard is your dude! This jammin’ 3-month old, 18-pound (as of 1/19) Boxer/Shepherd mix is a rock star in his own right, and is as charismatic as they come! But please don’t ask him to sign any autographs! ;-)

Def Leppard, or DL for short, is an absolute bundle of love. No matter who you are, the moment you step through the door, he greets you like you’re his favorite person. Friendly toward kids, the elderly, and other dogs, DL sees everyone as a potential new pal.

Curious, affectionate, playful, and unafraid, DL embraces new experiences with enthusiasm, excitement, and ease. He enjoys toys, romping around in the yard, being pet, sprawling out on your lap, and staying as close to his humans as possible. He displays a nice balance of going from high energy to super snuggliness. DL’s also a world class napper!

Pad-trained and crate-trained, DL has gotten the hang of both, although he’d much rather hang out with you than be left alone in his crate. Hey, can’t blame him for that! Treat motivated, incredibly smart, and eager to please, DL is learning the commands sit, come, bed, and down. This bright boy shows amazing potential and has a helluva future ahead of him.

DL would make an excellent family dog, given his sweet demeanor and adaptable nature. He’s not just a good boy…he’s a great boy…and anyone who adopts this fine creature is in for the treat of a lifetime!

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.
