Hello, my name is Starburst but foster mom tends to call me Star because she says Starburst is such a mouthful. I am looking forward to meeting you and getting my own family. I am a Coton de Tuléar and about 14 pounds. I am almost 7 years old (DOB January 10, 2019). I have a fair amount of energy but I can also settle. I am spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations and microchipped.

I have a sweet, playful nature and I love to snuggle with my human. If I can’t be in your lap, I will curl up at your feet. While I haven’t met any children, foster mom thinks I would be fine with respectful children. I have shown some interest in toys and a bone.

Foster mom says I am house trained on what she calls a schedule. I will go outside but she hasn’t figured out my signal to go outside so I have had some accidents in the house. We have tried this thing called a car ride and I’m not a great fan of it. Foster mom thinks I will get used to it as I learn it leads to fun things. I’m okay on a leash.

Foster mom has two small dogs and several cats. I am comfortable with them but really haven’t interacted with them much. I join them in barking at people going by. One of foster mom’s cats head butted me. I didn’t know what she wanted and just ignored her. I met foster mom’s friend’s large dogs and was okay with them.

I stay in a separate room while foster mom is out but I don’t like being left and will bark when she leaves and when she comes home so apartment living likely isn’t the best place for me. At night, I will sleep on the floor beside your bed but I would rather be on the big bed with you. Sometimes. I like to play outside so if you have a fenced yard, that would be great.

The ideal home for me could have another dog and even a cat but I would be okay as an only pet. If you have a fenced yard that would be a bonus. If you want a lap dog, I’m your person. If you have respectful children, I would be okay with that.

I hope to meet you soon.
