Star - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Skokie, Illinois

Have you ever met a dog who would love nothing more than to curl up in your lap?

Meet Star, a Jack Russell mix who came to Chicago Animal Care and Control as an owner surrender. Her sweet spirit made an instant impression, and our team fell in love with her and pulled her into our care. Now she is searching for her next family.

Star is an extremely affectionate girl who wants nothing more than to be close to you, whether that means snuggling in your lap or following you from room to room. She has plenty of energy and loves to play, so a good game of fetch or a romp in the yard is always a welcome invitation. Star also loves her walks and gets along well with other dogs. She is not much of a barker, and her sweet, happy personality shines through in everything she does.

Star is a cute, joyful girl with so much love to offer. Could she be the companion you have been searching for?

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
