My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Stella!

The gentle 3-year-old Pitbull mix weighing 42 lbs, with a heart as sweet and sensitive as her soulful eyes! Stella is ready to fill your home with love and affection, bringing warmth and joy to every moment.
Stella is a bit of a sensitive lady, but once she warms up, she's an absolute sweetheart. Her intelligence and easy-going nature make her a delightful companion for those seeking a loyal and loving furry friend.

If there are children in her forever home, Stella would do best with kids aged 13 years old and up. Her sensitivity requires a calm and mature environment where she can feel safe and secure.
Stella may take some time to warm up to other dogs, so a slow introduction is preferred to ensure a positive interaction. She seems to prefer dogs that are laid back and willing to give her some space initially. With patience and proper introductions, she's sure to form strong bonds with her furry companions.

Stella's future home will be one filled with love, understanding, and plenty of patience as she continues to overcome her sensitivities and build confidence. With the right match, she's sure to become an integral part of the family and bring happiness to all.

Ready to welcome the gentle spirit of Stella into your life? Call 330-487-0333 ext 226 to schedule an appointment and provide her with the loving and understanding home she deserves. Your forever friend is just a call away!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All of our adoptable animals are up-to-date on all age appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, de-wormed, de-flea and microchipped before adoptions are finalized. All dogs over six months of age receive a temperament assessment by our Certified Professional Dog Trainer to ensure appropriate placement. Also, many animals in our care receive basic obedience training to improve manners and increase adoptability.

We are currently doing adoptions by appointment only. Please contact us by phone at (234) 212-9843 or email at adoptions@summithumane.org, and an adoption counselor will return your message. They will review our adoption process, answer any questions, and tell you more about the animals currently available for adoption at our shelter and in our foster program. If we have a match for you and your family, an appointment will be scheduled to meet the animal.

Additional questions can be directed to our adoption team at (234) 212-9843.
