My name is Stella!

I purchased Stella from a pet store in Dallas when she was 12 weeks old. She is now 5 1/2 years old. She was socialized when she was young, but as she got older, and after being home during Covid, she did not do well with other dogs. She is territorial and protective, but also a huge lover. I have fallen on very difficult times and haven’t been able to keep up with her shots. And now I’m have to give up my home and move in with a friend for now. I can’t take her with me. She needs someone that knows and understands the breed. Other dogs don’t seem to like her much (she tends to use her size and not listen to their cues which causes issues). She has never been around kids, so with her size and territorial issues, I wouldn’t recommend initially.
I haven’t been able to work with her like I should on her behavior due to medical issues. I love her with all my heart, but have run out of options to be able to keep her.
