FUN FACTS/BRIEF BIO: “Do you need a Hero? Are you holding out for a Hero ‘til the end of the night?”
Introducing Hero, a sweet natured young pup who arrived at STAR last week with his brother, Hoagie. You will find it hard not to fall in love with his doting personality and constantly wagging tail. Hero is very social and would benefit greatly from having another dog in the home who could help teach him how to be an upstanding canine citizen. Could he be your Hero, baby? Want him to stand by you forever?
