Stella's Story

Hi, I'm Stella, a 64-pound German Shepherd and Heeler mix with a loyal heart and a personality all my own. I like to take my time getting to know people, and once I trust you, I'll form a wonderful bond that's truly special. I appreciate having my personal space respected, and I'm happiest when I'm allowed to come to you on my own terms. If someone gets too close to my face before I'm comfortable, I can become defensive, so I do best with people who understand my boundaries and let me interact at my own pace. <br/><br/>I'm a smart girl who loves treats, and I'm always excited to show off the commands I already know in exchange for a tasty reward! When it's time to play, you'll quickly discover that fetch is one of my absolute favorite games-especially if my ball squeaks! I may not always bring it right back, but I'll often drop it nearby and eagerly wait for you to toss it again. I have lots of energy and would love an active home where I can enjoy walks, adventures, and plenty of playtime. Because I value my space, I'd do best in a home with children over the age of 10 who can respect my boundaries. If you're looking for a devoted, intelligent companion and are willing to take the time to understand me, you'll find a sweet, loving girl who's ready to be your loyal best friend for years to come.<br/><br/>My adoption fee of $225+tax covers the cost of my care and stay here at the humane society.<br/><br/>All Pennington County residents must also pay an additional $8 licensing fee at time of adoption.

Humane Society of The Black Hills's Adoption Policy
The adoption process may take up to one hour to complete but we’ll keep it as simple and streamlined as possible. Here are the steps when you’re considering adopting a pet: - Visit our website to see available animals or see them on-site during regular hours, seven days a week. - When you find a dog, cat or small animal you would like to spend more time with, simply call the Humane Society of the Black Hills at (605) 394-4170 for an appointment. - Occasionally, our team is able to accommodate walk-ins, but as we cannot guarantee them, it is best to call for an appointment. -During your scheduled appointment, an adoption advisor will review the animal's history with you and bring the animal to meet you for an initial visit. - A second appointment may be made for you for a variety of reasons (Ex. You have a dog at home you'd like to bring in to meet the pet next). -Once you have met a pet that you think is your perfect match and you have been approved to adopt, your adoption advisor will take you through the adoption process, and you can take your new family member home!
