Here's what the humans have to say about me:
3 years ago, we adopted Stella when our in-laws were no longer able to care for her. Stella is sweet, kind, and gentle. The kids tug on her, lay on her, and pull on her ears, and she has never been aggressive or nipped at them. She loves children and other dogs. She walks on a leash extremely well. Her breed is Hypoallergenic!
Stella is crate trained and prefers sleeping in her crate at night and in her dog bed next to my desk during the day! Stella would be a wonderful addition to your family.
Stella was bread by an inexperienced breeding out of Oakland, Ca, trying to make a profit. As such, Stella was born with some "plumbing" problems that cause her to easily get bladder stones if not kept on a strict dry food diet. We recommend she has access to a doggie door at night if she needs to urinate. Stella would make an excellent companion for anyone seeking a low maintenance, good leash walking, lap dog!
