Stella's Story

Meet Stella! <br/><br/>Estimated DOB: 03/20/2016<br/><br/>Don't let that senior status fool you! Stella may be an older gal, but she's still got plenty of pep in her step and a whole lot of love to give!<br/><br/>Stella's family left her with a neighbor, who eventually brought her to a shelter. Now this sweet girl is getting another shot at finding a family who will love her for the rest of her days.<br/><br/>And honestly? She's making it pretty damn easy to fall in love with her!<br/><br/>Stella is a professional snuggler, part-time squirrel chaser, and full-time good girl. She LOVES people and will happily soak up every ounce of affection you're willing to give. Think you're done petting her? Think again. She'll lift her little chin to remind you that the neck scratches aren't over yet. <br/><br/>She's also got a playful side! Squeaky toys, chew toys, peanut butter Kongs, and a good game of fetch are right up her alley. Just don't expect her to always give the ball back. Stella makes her own rules!<br/><br/>A few more reasons to love this girl:<br/><br/> Housebroken and crate trained<br/><br/> Knows sit, down, and shake<br/><br/> Walks beautifully on a leash (unless a squirrel has other plans)<br/><br/> Dog friendly with dogs of all sizes<br/><br/> Loves people and ALL the cuddles<br/><br/> Can be trusted loose in the house without destroying anything<br/><br/> Enjoys a fenced yard but is just as happy going for neighborhood walks<br/><br/> Food motivated and always excited for dinner!<br/><br/>Stella does need a little assistance getting onto higher beds, but she manages couches and lower furniture just fine. She's a senior lady, after all, and deserves a little VIP treatment!<br/><br/>We are unsure about young children, and a home without cats would be best.<br/><br/>Stella isn't asking for much. A comfy place to sleep, some toys, good food, walks, and humans who don't mind being smothered in kisses. She's got years of love left to give, and we'd really love to see her spend them being someone's whole world.<br/><br/>Ready to give this sweet senior her happily ever after?<br/><br/>Apply to adopt Stella at https://rescueapittie.org
