Starburst (aka Bursty)

Meet Starburst (aka Bursty!) He's approximately 3 years old and is a sweet and lovable boy with a shy heart full of affection. Starburst can be a bit nervous at first, but with patience and time, he will build a bond that’s unbreakable. Once he’s comfortable, he’ll shower you with slobbery kisses, showing just how much he enjoys your company! He was a stray and was never claimed by a family, so some of this nervousness could just be because he's unsure of his newest surroundings and unsure why he can't find his family. Have no fear, lil man - we'll find you a new one! Starburst knows how to keep himself busy—whether it’s chewing on his favorite toys or enthusiastically chasing after tennis balls. Starburst is also very polite when it comes to treats, always taking them gently from your hand, though you might get a little slobber in the process! He’s well-trained and knows his commands, including "sit," "come," and is great on recalls. Starburst enjoys trying to play with other dogs through the fence. He should do well with another dog who has a complimentary personality as Bursty can get a little overzealous and more assertive dogs may not appreciate it. When on a walk, he’s good on the leash and loves to explore the world around him. Starburst shows no signs of aggression and is all about love, play, and companionship. Bursty should do great with kids of any age and shows no signs of aggression. His gentle nature makes him an ideal companion for children also, though he does tend to forget his size when playing. Because of his playful energy, he may accidentally bump into little toddlers while running around, so it’s something to keep in mind for families with young children. We are unsure how Starburst would do with cat friends. If you’re patient and ready to build a bond, Starburst will reward you with a lifetime of loyalty, joy, and, of course, slobbery kisses! He is neutered and fully vaccinated. His adoption fee is $180.00 We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been approved: https://www.co.monroe.wi.us/departments/dog-control/online-animal-adoption-application
