About Stella

Meet Stella, a vibrant 6-year-old mixed breed dog who has been part of her family since she was just 8 weeks old. With a dad who's a German Shepherd and a mom that's an Australian Shepherd, she embodies a blend of energy and loyalty. Lively and full of spirit, Stella thrives on daily walks and playtime. She's protective of her loved ones, especially great with older kids, but her playful nature can lead her to jump up in excitement, so homes with very young children might not be suitable. Stella is house trained and loves being the center of attention. While she gets along with other dogs, she doesn't do well with cats or small animals like chickens. A home that can offer her plenty of exercise and companionship will suit her best, preferably without other animals. With her sweet demeanor and protective instincts, she's sure to make a devoted companion. Ready to meet this delightful dog? Click apply to start the adoption process.
