About Stella

Stella’s world got turned upside down when her person passed away, and now she’s looking for a new place to call home. She’s a Boxer and Bulldog mix, about six years old, with a short brown coat and a calm, easygoing way about her. Stella is housebroken, listens well, and gets along with both other dogs and children. She’s not fond of cats, so a feline-free home is best. Having never been leash-walked, she’d do best somewhere with a fully fenced yard where she can relax and feel safe outside. Stella is up to date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped, and tips the scales at just over 50 pounds. She’s recovering nicely from ACL surgery on both knees and prefers to eat on her own. Insurance for her care can be transferred to her new adopter, and her previous family will cover the first few months’ premiums and even ship food. Your new best friend is just one click away.
