Stella

Hi there, I’m Stella, I have a small body with a bright, searching heart. Though I won't be small for much longer!

I wake to every new scent with a wag and a wiggle, and I carry a big surge of energy I’m still learning how to redirect. When I spot another dog, I may get worried and bark at them—my way of saying hello while I figure out what comes next.

I long for steady support from my hooman to walk beside me in those first moments and help me find my calm. With patience, I know I can grow into a brave, curious, joyful companion.

I crave daily chances to discover life. My energy is high, so I’d thrive with movement and exploration every day. I can be unsure around unfamiliar dogs at first, and I respond best to quiet introductions and positive training to help me greet friends with a neutral, friendly posture.

What I need is a home that’s ready for daily adventures and patient teaching. Busy dog parks aren’t ideal for me right now; quiet walks and regular opportunities to learn will help me flourish. A calm, caring family who can give me time to settle and grow will see me respond with wagging tails and bright eyes.

If you can picture yourself beside me on a sunlit path, ready to learn together, I’d love to meet you. Please come say hello and tell me your story; maybe we’ll start a wonderful new chapter side by side.
