Stella

Meet Stella | 5-Year-Old Pit Mix | 45-50 lbs<br/><br/>Stella came to us heartbroken and overwhelmed, and her foster family has been amazed by how far she's come. With patience, routine, and lots of love, this sweet girl has started to exhale. She's settling in, relaxing, and showing the affectionate, gentle soul she truly is.<br/><br/>Stella craves human connection - she wants to be near her people, follow them around the house, and soak up every snuggle she can. She's especially wonderful with kids and blossoms when she feels included.<br/><br/>In the home, Stella is an absolute dream. Her house manners are immaculate: she's fully house trained, respectful of belongings, and sleeps soundly through the night. She's not destructive and doesn't need a kennel - she simply wants the reassurance of being part of family life.<br/><br/>With dogs, Stella has made huge progress. She came in anxious with some resource guarding tendencies, but after very slow, thoughtful introductions in her foster home, she's getting along beautifully with their dogs. Stella isn't a big "play dog," so she'd do best with either a laid-back, older male dog or as the only pet. She cannot live with cats.<br/><br/>What we love about Stella:<br/> Sweet, loyal, and deeply affectionate<br/> Loves kids and people of all ages<br/> Dog-friendly with slow intros; prefers calm canine companions<br/> No cats<br/> Impeccable house manners<br/> Sleeps peacefully through the night<br/> Walks nicely on leash and enjoys outdoor time<br/> Would thrive in a home with a yard to relax and explore<br/><br/>Stella is ready for a family who will continue giving her the stability, patience, and love she's worked so hard to trust again. In return, she'll be the most loyal snuggle bug you could ever ask for.<br/><br/>If you want a tender-hearted companion who will adore you endlessly, Stella may be the missing piece of your home. <br/><br/>Stella is eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, which means you can take some time to get to know her in your home before finalizing the adoption.
