Stella is a 97 lb. spayed German Shepherd whose gentle temperament stands out as much as her name. Despite being healthy and well-mannered, Stella somehow landed in the shelter as a stray. Her age is estimated at around 5, though nobody knows for sure. Now in foster care, Stella needs slow, calm introductions—her best side comes out when new people give her space so she can approach on her terms. Once she feels comfortable, Stella is affectionate, calm, and genuinely wants to connect. Expect a loyal couch companion; she enjoys lounging with her people and behaves well when left home alone. She's relaxed but playful, very good with other dogs—including puppies—and quick to learn new commands. Stella is house-trained, polite, and self-entertaining with a solid medium energy level. She’s patient, a fast learner, and responds best to gentle routines and respect for her initial boundaries. If you’re ready for a smart, steady shepherd with deep family bonds, Stella’s waiting to make the move permanent. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
