Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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

I brought Stella in as a stray dog living in the suburbs of Atlanta, GA in November 2022. At the time, the vet determined she was ~1 year old, and so she is now about 3 years old. I initially only planned to foster her briefly, but she ended up being such a great companion to me and my other dog that she has stayed with us for nearly two years. She is very loyal and affectionate and thrived at our home in central Massachusetts where we had several acres of land for her to explore.

However, I relocated to a busy location in Providence ~6 months ago and Stella is struggling to adapt to the city, especially in our new apartment that does not have a yard. She plays well with other dogs off-leash (at dog parks, boarding, etc.), but on a leash she is often reactive to dogs, other people, and wildlife. An ideal home would have a generously sized yard so that Stella can remain active. She is extremely warm and loving and I hope to find her a home with the space she needs to be comfortable.
