Star Rescue CLG RCN 20204765 CHY 22574

established to enable prevention and relief of suffering for animals (primarily the domestic dog, domestic cat and feral cat). Star Rescue CLG is based in Limerick but is not limited to this county. Star Rescue, through a network of dedicated individuals, assists abandoned, sick , injured and unwanted animals. Animals in the care of Star rescue will receive

appropriate veterinary care and be assessed and prepared for loving homes. Star Rescue CLG aims to fulfil this commitment for Irish feral cats colonies through the process of trap, neuter , return (TNR). All animals have an intrinsic value and should be treated with respect and dignity and protected accordingly. Our rescue community is engaged internationally in animal welfare concerns. We also aim to assist in the improvement of animal welfare internationally by providing food and related vet care cost assistance in the case of poverty, war, climate change and natural disasters. This is done either directly by Star rescue or via funding of in-situ organisations at the frontline. Star Rescue, promotes and supports the activities of similar minded animals welfare bodies within Ireland and internationally. Our story began in 2016 with a injured dog we named hope who was abandoned and left to die suffering in agonizing pain in a local housing estate. The dog we named Hope united a small and dedicated group of volunteers who decided there was a need for a animal welfare organisation in West Limerick. In 2016 successful application granted by the Department of Agriculture Food and Marine to allow export of dogs who found it hard due to age or breed stigma to get a home here in Ireland

In 2021 €3000 Animal Welfare Grant Funding was received from the Department of Agriculture Food and Marine. In 2022 €12,350 Animal Welfare Grant Funding was received from the Department of Agriculture Food and Marine.

A Journey of Healing: From Abandoned to Loved 💔➡️❤️

A little while back , three innocent puppies Phoebe (now Molly), Paige and Piper were abandoned, left to face the world alone and afraid. Their tiny hearts, once filled with hope, were shattered by neglect and uncertainty. But today, they are unrecognizable—not by their appearance, but by the sheer love and joy they radiate.

Slowly, they learned that not all humans are unkind. They learned the warmth of a soft bed, the joy of a full belly, and the security of knowing they were finally home.They’ve learned to trust, to love, and to believe that they deserve all the happiness in the world.

To see them transform into the happy, curious pups they are today is a reminder of the power of second chances. And while they’ve come so far, the journey of healing is still unfolding. With every cuddle, every playful bark, and every new adventure, we are reminded that love and patience can heal even the deepest wounds.

These puppies have been given a new life, and in turn, they’ve given us a love so pure and unconditional that words can hardly express it. They were once abandoned, but now they are cherished, safe, and home.

Thank you for being part of their story. Your support and love mean the world to us—and to them.

🐾✨ Hudson’s New Beginning: From Gun Shy to Sofa King ✨🐾

Hudson has left us for a brighter future, and we couldn’t be happier for this handsome setter! 💛 When Hudson came into our care, he’d never known the comfort of a sofa. Gun shy and unsure, he placed all his trust in us to help him find a better life.

Now, seeing him all cuddled up on a sofa, safe and loved, is exactly why we do what we do. 🛋️💕

🐾 Maisie is Finally Safe! 🐾

After weeks of effort, we’re thrilled to share that Jimmy’s sister, Maisie, has finally been caught! 💛 This scared, un-socialised girl was dumped alongside Jimmy in the forestry near Gerry and Catherine’s home, and we owe them a massive thank you for going above and beyond. They fed her, coaxed her, and never gave up, even when it felt hopeless.

Gerry and Catherine reached out when they were at their wits’ end, calling for help to save these poor souls abandoned in such a cruel way. It’s heart-wrenching to imagine the mindset of someone who could drive to a remote area, toss out these terrified, unsocialised dogs, and leave them to fend for themselves. Were they “leftovers” that couldn’t be sold? We’ll never know. 😞

There’s no microchip, no CCTV, no accountability — and that’s the cruel reality we face. It’s unimaginable that people capable of such heartlessness live among us.

👉 Do your part:
✔️ Neuter your pets — prevent more unwanted animals.
❌ Don’t buy from breeders — so many animals are desperate for homes.

Thanks to your support and the dedication of people like Gerry and Catherine, Maisie is now safe from the harsh cold. She has a long journey ahead, requiring time, patience, and specialist care and training before she’s ready for adoption. But she’s safe now, and that’s what matters.

🌟🐾 Star Rescue Update: Little Lily the Cocker Spaniel🐾🌟

We have some heartwarming news to share about our sweet girl, Little Lily! When she was surrendered to us, she came with some behavior challenges that needed extra love and attention. Thanks to her incredible foster family, Lily was given the time and care she needed to blossom.

What we didn’t expect was the beautiful bond that formed between Lily and her foster! They fell head over heels in love with each other, and it’s truly a match made in heaven. 💖

We are thrilled to announce that Little Lily will always be a cherished part of the Star Rescue team! Thank you to everyone who has supported her journey. Here’s to new beginnings and a lifetime of happiness for our lovely Lily! 🐶✨

Help needed... 🚨🚨🚨

These girls are still waiting 💔💔💔

Greyhounds make fantastic pets and are not energetic, have the odd zoom and then couch time. We would love to get some interest in these two females.

We have been asked to help 2 ex-racing greyhounds.

If you can help by fostering one of the dogs or are interested in adopting please message us on Facebook or email [email protected]

🐾🎥 Hey fur-friends! It’s Jimmy the Dog here, and I’ve got some pawsitively adorable news! I’m all settled into my fab foster home and guess what? I got caught on video enjoying some serious alone time while watching my favorite animal documentaries! 📺🐶

Just me, a cozy blanket, and some epic nature footage! Who knew those squirrels could be so entertaining? 😂🌳 Check out my “serious” TV-watching face! Can’t wait to bring you all on this adventure with me! 🐕❤️

🐾 Meet Belle, the adorable Frenchie! 🐾

Belle joined us from the pound just last week and is currently enjoying some well-deserved respite care after her neutering operation. While we don’t know much about her past, we do know that she’s ready to find a loving forever home!

Belle is looking for a family with older kids, as she thrives in a calm environment. She has been tested with cats, but let’s just say that didn’t go so well, so a cat-free home is a must. Additionally, Belle prefers to be the only dog in the house, as she can be quite territorial around her furry counterparts.

Despite her list of needs, Belle is an incredibly affectionate little lady! She’s just beginning to discover how much she loves being spoiled with plenty of scratches and cuddles. Her sweet personality shines through as she warms up to her new surroundings.

We are now taking applications for Belle’s forever home. If you think you could be the perfect match for this lovable Frenchie, don’t hesitate to reach out! Let’s help Belle find the loving family she deserves! ❤️🐶

We’re sharing this from Kerry Dog Pound in the hope of finding forever families for two wonderful collies currently waiting for a second chance. Collies are known for being incredibly loyal, smart, and affectionate—they form deep bonds and make truly loving companions. 🐶❤️

So why do collies often have trouble finding homes? For those who understand them, collies offer a lifetime of loyalty, obedience, and joy.

If anyone knows of a rescue in the UK that could help rehome these sweet collies, please get in touch! Let’s work together to find them the loving homes they deserve.

UPDATE: OWNER FOUND

Hello, we have had a stray dog around here the last 3 days (creeves, Askeaton area). We can’t get close enough to tell if they are male or female as they are too nervous and growl when approached but they seem to be lame when walking so not sure if they were hit by a car or not. They have been sleeping here in our dogs house and we have been giving them food and water. Could you please put up a post with the below picture? They are wearing a collar so we’re assuming they’ve strayed off. Thank you!

💔 Heartbreaking Reality of Rescue 💔

Two weeks ago, two young, terrified dogs were dumped in a remote area of our community, left to fend for themselves. Once again, we at Star Rescue are left to pick up the pieces, stepping in to give them a chance at the life they deserve.

On Tuesday, we managed to catch one of them — meet Jimmy! 🐾 Jimmy is now safe, but his journey is only beginning. He’s a big, gentle soul who has never known the comforts so many of our pets take for granted. From learning to walk on a lead to getting used to sounds like a TV or washing machine, Jimmy has a lot to learn. We know with patience and love, he’ll get there. 🧡

The second dog is still out there, hiding near a kind couple’s home who have opened their hearts to help her. They’ve been feeding her, gaining her trust little by little, and we’re hopeful she’ll come closer as time goes on. But the hours we’ve spent, setting humane traps and waiting, haven’t been enough yet.

The truth is, we’re just ordinary people with day jobs, volunteering what time and energy we have to save these precious lives. This isn’t easy work, and it’s heartbreaking to see the cruelty some people are capable of. How can anyone drive for miles, toss these young souls out like rubbish, and simply drive away?

But with your support, we’re fighting to give them a better future. 🌟 Together, we can make a difference. 🐶💙
