About Stella
Introducing Stella!
A lovable bundle of pure joy that you will not be able to keep out of the water 💦
HOUSEHOLD - Stella is a confident puppy who happily greets people with a smile. She can be a little jumpy at times from the amount of energy she has which is why an active household would be best suited for her. She is keen to be with her people doing various activities, she has shown interest in sniffing, tag with her person and anything to do with puddles.
ON-GOING TRAINING - When over excited, she does jump but has shown improvement in being told that this is not a good behaviour and is becoming better at seeking attention in other ways.
Stella has shown interest in learning new things and is treat motivated.
ON LEAD - Stella will need ongoing leash training, she responds well to leash pressure and does respond well to correction. She checks in with you throughout the walk and usually will stop if you do, sometimes sitting beside you.
On a longline lead Stella is completely curious and confident, wanting to sniff or do a lot of zooming while you watch her. She is good at knowing the length of the leash, allowing her to turn around before getting to the end of it.
PLAY/TOYS - In the shelter environment, Stella has not shown much interest in toys but this may change in a home setting.
OTHER DOGS - Stella has shown she is a very playful pup with other canine friends. She happily bounces around them, wanting to play a running game while also play bowing every chance she gets. She has shown no preference over female or males.
CATS/OTHER PETS - When introducing Stella to our cattery, she simply said a hi to the cats then moved on. She was more interested in the environment and people around her rather than the felines.
CARE/GROOMING - Stella has a short coat that is a little thicker than a normal staffy coat so she might shed occasionally. Stella has shown us no negative reactions when brushing her.
EXERCISE - Stella would need to be walked daily and require mental stimulation to keep her happy. This could include interactive toys with treats, walks allowing her to sniff and agility.
CAR RIDES - Stella happily hops into a car and is excited to join her handler for a ride.
NUTRITION- Stella isn’t a fussy eater and has no special dietary requirements. She is very gentle when taking treats from your hand.
BREED - 7 Month Old, Staffy X
