Story
Hi,everyone! My name is Stella. Some kind neighbors spotted me on Stella Link (which is how I got my name) back in March 2024 and teamed up to rescue me. I was nervous at first, but, by day 3, I was following my foster mom everywhere and asking for belly rubs (you will often find me laying on my back, belly up). I'm an easy-going, affectionate gal, and am happy to lounge around the house or play with my toys. Once I'm comfortable in my home, you'll see my silly, playful side! I'm potty trained, know several cues, go into my crate easily, am very relaxed and quiet in my crate, and sleep through the night. I love to learn new tricks, go for walks, and lounge on the couch. I used to be very reactive (barked at all the things) but, with training, this has improved significantly. My foster mom has been dedicated to helping me see that the world is not a scary place, and I would rather have chicken than bark anyways! I currently live with two grumpy, senior Chihuahuas. They growl at me a lot so I give them their space. I also spent time with a neighbor's friendly, large dog and we became friends. I live with two elementary-aged kids who I am very lovey-dovey with. We snuggle all the time! One of the children is not a morning person and would rather curl up on the dog bed with me than get ready for school. I am anxious around new people and it takes me some time to trust that they mean me no harm. In April, my foster mom and I started working with a wonderful trainer to curb my reactivity (i.e. stranger danger). I know several commands now- sit, down, touch, and consent to pet. My foster mom and trainer say I'm super smart, highly food motivated, and am miles away from where I started! I just need a little patience and time to feel safe, especially with men. If you are looking for a sweet, loyal companion who is sure to make you laugh with my goofy antics (like being a chatty, drama queen in typical Husky fashion), I'm your gal! Apply today!
