About Stella

Meet Stella, an affectionate and playful Great Dane who has transformed from 77 pounds of uncertainty to a healthy, joyful 103 pounds. This roughly 5-year-old beauty loves every moment of her new life, filled with belly rubs, backyard zoomies, and the excitement of her people coming home. Stella greets the day with adorable spins and eagerly awaits meal times with an infectious enthusiasm that lights up the room. Stella is more than just a pretty face; she's a gentle giant who thrives on human companionship. With a bunny-soft coat and a long tail that wags with pure joy, she seeks love and attention from everyone she meets. Whether it’s playing with her toys or embarking on exciting adventures in the yard, her curiosity knows no bounds. Though Stella is housebroken and knows basic commands like sit and shake, she's still learning some household manners. While she can be left alone for periods, she prefers to have her space managed rather than being crated. Importantly, Stella would flourish as the only dog in her forever home. Though she has done well with other dogs, the significant changes she has faced make her happiest when she has her humans all to herself. Her foster family adores her, often remarking on her playful spirit and affectionate nature, and they know she deserves a forever home where she can truly thrive. Ready to be a part of an adventurous family that appreciates her lovable quirks? Stella is waiting for someone to give her the forever home she deserves!
