Stella is a 3 year old Heeler/Shepherd mix. She is a sweet dog who has a protective personality. This has caused her to exhibit what we refer to as `resource guarding`. She is not an outwardly aggressive dog, but she has had issues in the past where she wasn`t comfortable with the actions of a human that was in her immediate area. Stella does have a history of being mouthy to the point of breaking skin. We strongly feel that in the right environment, she will do wonderful. Stella would do best in a home with no small children or other animals. If you have an animal already in your home, we would require a slow introduction and possible several meet and greets to make sure it is a good fit. She loves walks and playing tugs and ball. Stella`s adoption fee includes her spay, vaccines, microchip and various other treatments. If Stella is the dog for you, please stop by the front desk or call 641-753-9046. Please don`t count Stella out because of her history. Lets work together on her Furever instead!
