Story
ADOPTION FEE: $425
Meet Stella! This sweet lady was rescued from a life of neglect and is ready to find her forever home!
From her foster:
Stella is a high-energy, food motivated, intelligent mixed breed, ready to find her perfect match!
She’s been in my foster care for 3 months, after being rescued from neglect. With proper nutrition and veterinary care, she is now at her peak health. This girl has come a long way!
Stella is a bit shy and hesitant at first. Once she feels safe and comfortable, she loves being around her people.
Around new people, Stella barks and shows wariness. In these experiences, having the new person sit seems to give Stella the confidence boost to approach when she’s ready, and treats are a key to Stella’s heart!
Stella has discomforts around most other dogs. She has shown improvement on her weekly walks with a few calm well behaved dogs, but does not seem to enjoy face to face interaction. Stella would do best with a patient owner and would benefit from working with a trainer to help her gain confidence.
Stella is a busy girl! She has a keen nose, and really enjoys engaging in puzzle toys. She knows many commands such as “sit”, “paw”, “down”, and loves engaging in learning sessions! Stella has more room for learning, and her food motivation makes training sessions enjoyable. She has learned to bring certain toys to play fetch.
To those she is comfortable around, She is friendly, sweet, and has a natural love for companionship. Stella is kennel trained and takes to her kennel very well by being given her command “kennel.” Stella loves going on walks, she pulls a bit, and keeps a good jogging/running pace. Stella does fine passing calm dogs on the other side of the street, but shows reactivity (barks/pulls) towards dogs face to face, or other reactive dogs.
If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, energetic companion, Stella may be the girl for you.
We are a foster-based rescue and generally do not have pups available to meet at our office except during adoption events on Saturdays. Not every dog attends every adoption event.
Interested in this pup? The first step is to complete our online application by clicking the "Apply for Adoption" button. Please note that we are only able to finalize adoptions at events for approved adopters. The earlier you apply, the better as it takes time to review and approve applications.
We host adoption events almost every Saturday from 11:00am to 2:00pm at our rescue office (1721 W Harmony, unit 102, Fort Collins, Co 80526)! Check our Instagram and/or Facebook page for info on where we will be hosting adoptions this weekend!
All Aboard Animal Rescue saves dogs and puppies from high-kill shelters in other states. These pups are brought to Colorado, where they are required to be spayed or neutered - breaking the cycle of unwanted litters of puppies who end up as strays! Please consider supporting us in this mission by adopting, fostering, volunteering, or donating.
