Meet the fabulous Stella! 🌟 At just 8 months old and weighing around 45-50 lbs, this lovely girl is on the hunt for a forever home that's all about her. Wouldn't you love to have a snuggle buddy who adores cuddles and knows how to play fetch like a champ? 🎾 Stella is one of those precious souls who just wants to bring joy into your life, as she joyfully trots back with the ball, smiling all the while! Her journey began a bit rough, tied to a tree and unsure of the world around her. While she’s been showered with love since, Stella does carry some skittishness. If someone approaches too quickly, her little heart might cower - but isn't that a reminder of how strong resilience can be? 💖 Despite her past, she's become a loving companion who absolutely thrives on affection. Stella is crate-trained during the day and quite the good girl during the night too! While she may prefer to have you beside her (who can blame her?!), she won't potty in her crate or around the house overnight—there’s a lot of smart in this pup! 🧠 When outside, she sometimes gets too excited and might forget to do her business, but she’s got the hang of puppy pads if needed. However, Stella prefers to be the only queen in her castle for now. While she can be sweet with some dogs, her past experiences have left her a tad protective of her space, especially around older dogs. This is such a loving creature who’s searching for understanding and a safe place to truly thrive. Let's show her that the past doesn’t define her. Stella’s current caregiver is heartbroken to part with such a remarkable pup, but she wants the best for her—and that's where YOU come in! If you're ready to offer Stella a world filled with love, joy, and endless cuddles, don’t wait! Apply through the Buddy App to ensure that Stella finds her forever happiness! 🌈🐾
