Meet Stella! At 5 years old and weighing about 25 pounds, Stella is the kind of dog that gracefully warms your heart without ever clamoring for attention. Gentle and sweet-natured, she finds joy in playing with toys, whether she’s fetching a ball for you or tossing it for herself. She's also known to take on the role of the fun police for her foster siblings, ensuring a good time for everyone, and she loves to relax nearby the people she trusts. Shy around new faces, Stella often hides behind her foster mom's legs until she feels secure. Her affection comes quietly; she prefers to softly place a paw on you when she wants some love, a gesture more cat-like than typical for a dog. While car rides and leash walks can be a bit daunting, Stella gains confidence especially with another dog alongside her. For this reason, she would thrive in a calm home with a fenced yard and maybe a friendly furry sibling to help her continue to bloom. Stella isn’t the type to demand attention; she's the kind you grow to love a little more every single day. Ready to welcome Stella into your life? Click apply to start the adoption process.
