stella

Stella is a beautiful four-year-old girl with a loving heart and a playful spirit. This sweet soul came into rescue when her family had to move unexpectedly and couldn’t take her along. For a time, Stella lived alone with only brief visits for food and potty breaks, and she lost quite a bit of weight. She’s still working on gaining back her girlish figure, along with her confidence. Despite it all, Stella remains easygoing and affectionate and she love giving kisses to her favorite people!

About Stella:
* Recently spayed (she still needs a little more time to heal before she's ready for adoption)
* Crate trained and potty trained
* Rides fabulously in the car
* When her fosters are away, she does wonderfully with access to a gated area in her foster home
* Gets along nicely with her Great Dane foster sister (Stella appears to be more submissive than dominant)
* Energetic and loves to be where the action is
* Very aware of new or unfamiliar noises
* Enjoys chasing bunnies and squirrels
* Fast eater with a healthy appetite 

Stella can be a bit skittish at first, especially in new situations. Still, after just a few weeks in her foster home she has already grown more comfortable and confident. She will thrive with a patient family who can continue building her confidence and helping her feel secure. We’re not yet sure how she does with cats. Because she seems to enjoy chasing small critters, a home without cats may be best until more is known. Stella is truly a looker, and once she’s fully healed and ready for her fresh start, this sweetheart won’t be available for long. She deserves a home where she’ll never feel alone again — one filled with love, stability, and plenty of adventure.
