Starr is a "Plus Size" Beagle which gives her more room to store up all the love she is saving for her new family. She is a tall girl, 19" at the shoulder, with long legs and a big heart and she loves hugs and massages.

Starr is a sweet girl who likes to play with her foster buddy's toys. She is very easy going with other dogs and a tad bit shy when people first meet her. She loves going outdoors, sunning herself, and sniffing out a lizard or rabbit. Starr enjoys walks in the early evening and her best loved treat is a raw hide bone.

With all the stormy weather of late, I have noticed that Starr is quite frightened of the thunder, like so many dogs in Florida. After a failed attempt of treats and toys as a diversion, my husband and I have created a "cave" in the back of one of the closets in our home with a blanket and pillow. Starr feels safe there, where she curls into a ball and naps. It has become such a routine, that when she senses a storm coming, she comes to one of us to show she wants to go to the closet. Once it passes, her foster buddy Dusty, runs in the closet to let her know it is safe to come out.

Update - 08-12-08 - We have learned that Starr is quite a fast runner and she loves to play tag with Dusty. She is learning tricks and is responding well to treat motivated commands. She has learned to sit and stay and we are working on following by our side. My husband is building a small agility course in our backyard and we are very anxious to see her progress due to her amazing ability to run and tag.

Good with Dogs, Good with Kids
