My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Stella is a friendly and silly girl. She has lots of energy and just wants to shower you with love and slobbery kisses.

Her previous foster says "Stella is full of energy and love! She's the sweetest girl and is sure to express it. With her liveliness she is sure to keep you entertained all day yet still loves to cuddle up beside you at night."

Here is what volunteers had to say after spending time with Stella:

"Stella loves to gives hugs and kisses! She is very high energy upon first meeting, but after 10-15 minutes of play she calms down and wants to cuddle. Perfect dog for cuddles and kisses."

"Stella is a high energy dog capable of walking and playing as much as you would like to, but she also has the ability to relax as well if needed. I noticed a ways into our walk that she began to walk by my side more than tugging on ahead. She clearly has the ability to calm down and match your energy once you get to know her. She also did this funny thing where she would jump up and walk along the benches that we passed by."
