Meet Sassafrass!
You have got to meet Sassafrass. Pictures do not say it all! She is a super smart pup who loves to snuggle. She LOVES people, car rides, other dogs and cats. Every living creature is a potential friend. The moment she spots a human, her tail starts wagging. She is a sweetheart on all levels and one of her favorite things to do is to snuggle.
Sassafrass is a tan English bulldog mix and currently weighs 42 pounds. She is three years old, fully house and crate trained. She knows some commands. She is described as muscle wrapped in velvet so her strength and enthusiasm can be overwhelming to small dogs and younger (under age 5) kids.
She is house and crate trained. She needs to continue to work on her leash skills as she has a tendency to pull. She loves to play with balls but cannot have tennis balls, as she shreds them. Kong type balls/toys are fine. Giving her an activity will keep her from being bored. It is important to remember that even though she is house trained, potty accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment.
Bulldog mixes are known for their friendliness, intelligence, and loyalty to family. They want to be around people, not left alone a lot. Sassafrass is a confident girl with a medium amount of energy, who will benefit from daily exercise and playtime, maybe at a dog park. Interested? Read on!
The adoption fee for Sassafrass is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.

About Dog Star Rescue
Dog Star Rescue, a non-profit, volunteer-run organization, is a dog rescue organization based out of the Hartford CT area. We work closely with shelters in the South as well as New England states to save the lives of loving and loyal dogs who have lost their way and find themselves on death row. Our team of wonderful volunteers get these adoptable dogs the medical and emotional care they need so they can transition into a loving forever home. To date we’ve placed over 4,000 dogs with new families.
All of our amazing volunteers are unpaid and donate their time because of their passion for helping dogs. They spend significant time each week helping guide dogs to a wonderful new life. If you ask our volunteers, they’ll tell you they do it for a wide variety of reasons, including personal satisfaction in helping address a nationwide problem, their love of dogs, and a desire to have fun socializing with like-minded people. Dog Star is always looking for new volunteers to join our group, so if you would like to be a part of our organization, please check out our Volunteer Opportunities page.
