Meet Mazzy Starr

Adoption Fee Sponsored by Susie Nessler, in loving memory of Apache and Tracker

Nickname: The Blonde Bombshell
Breed: Yellow Lab
Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge
Age: 4 years young
Weight: 42 lbs of pure golden sunshine
Hometown: Texas (where everything’s bigger, including my personality)
Current digs: Edgerton, WI

Personality Snapshot:

I’m a curious, confident, and loving with a heart of gold and fur softer than your favorite throw blanket. I adore people — especially men (what can I say, I’ve got a type) — and I’m cool with submissive dog friends who don’t mind that I like being Queen Bee. Cats? Eh… let’s just say I prefer a good chase over polite conversation. I am good with free-roaming in the house when you are gone, so no need for a crate!

I love all people, big, small, short, tall, male, female. I am a big fan of repairmen, electricians and plumbers. Just something about a man who can fix things.... I will offer to go home with them every time! I also love love love car rides. Ever want to kidnap me? Open a car door. I'll hop right in, a willing victim.

Tell me “HUGS!” and I’ll come running like it’s my full-time job. Seriously — big, snuggly, full-body hugs are my brand.

Mazzy Stats:

Sleep style: On the people bed if at all possible, but I will easily redirect to a dog bed on the floor if you ask nicely.

Meals: 1 cup high-quality kibble, twice daily. Nom nom.

Snore-o-meter: 1/10 I am a lady like that.

Bark-o-meter: 3/10 I will let you know when someone is coming, but otherwise, I keep it down.

Shedding: 4/10 I sparkle. You’ll sparkle. We’ll all sparkle together.

Fart-o-meter: 0/10 A lady doesn’t toot.

Fashion sense: Think sporty chic — tennis skirt and matching sun visor.

Signature color: Red — because it pops against my golden glow.

Walk-out song: “Fade Into You” by (who else?) Mazzy Star.

Favorite season: Summer! This Texas girl was born for sunshine, leisurely walks, and backyard barbecues.

Dream job: Walmart Greeter — I have the smile, the enthusiasm, and the "Hi! Hi! Hi!" energy for days.

Biggest dislike: Farm machinery and big trucks. I bark to remind them who’s boss.

Bucket list: Car rides, a fenced yard, a loving family, and maybe a moonlit dance or two.

Special Notes:

Mazzy has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which means her skin is a bit more delicate than most dogs. Roughhousing with rowdy pups isn’t her jam, but gentle play, cuddles, and calm companions are perfect. Her skin can tear pretty easily from claws and teeth, so supervision with other dogs is a must!

She’s smart as a whip — she knows “come,” “stop,” and “hugs” — and she’s got the softest, bunny-like fur you’ll ever touch.

The Details:

Spayed & microchipped
Housebroken
Takes treats gently
Walks nicely on a leash (a gentle leader helps when she gets excited!)
Rides like a champ in the car
Can free roam when left home alone
Up to date on vaccinations & preventatives

Mazzy Star is ready to shine in her forever home.
If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate sidekick who will fill your world with love, laughter, and hugs on demand — your Texas sweetheart is waiting.
