My story

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

Stella has been living it up in a foster home. Her foster humans have the following to say about her: Stella is a truly sweet and gentle dog who loves affection. She can be wonderfully lazy if you let her, content to lounge around the house with her favorite people. While she enjoys going on walks and exploring, she's equally happy to spend quiet days indoors. At home, her manners are impeccable—she’s never had an accident, isn’t destructive, and is perfectly content to nap on the couch if left alone for a few hours. Stella also has a unique love for buses and tries to board every parked one she encounters. We are actively working on building her confidence around new people and sounds, and she is already showing progress. She needs a patient and kind owner to help her learn to stay calm instead of barking in challenging situations. Occasionally, Stella pulls on the leash when she gets excited, but she’s a quick learner and has already improved significantly in walking nicely without tension on the leash. Stella is a wonderful dog and fostering her has been a joy. She’s looking for a forever family to give her the love she craves!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please come in and visit with our pets available for adoption. Once you find an animal you would like to adopt, you will be asked to fill out an adoption survey and meet with an adoption counselor. We do require landlord approval and we do not adopt out animals to live completely outside. Our adoption fees are $75 for dogs and cats under 5 years old and $55 for those 5 years and older.
