My story

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

Quietly Brilliant and Full of Heart

According to her foster, Stellantis is a smart, affectionate cattle dog mix who truly enjoys people. She’s happy to let new folks approach her and warms up to attention, especially cuddles and hugs. She does well with kids and has a gentle, steady demeanor that makes her easy to have around. Once she bonds with you, she enjoys staying close, often settling into cozy spots nearby like a devoted second shadow.

She is outstanding on leash and a pleasure to walk. Stellantis naturally heels, checks in often, and reliably waits for permission before crossing streets. She notices other dogs and shows interest but remains calm and unbothered, even in close or challenging passing situations. Her recall on a long lead is excellent, and her focus and responsiveness make outings smooth and enjoyable.

Stellantis is very intelligent and eager to learn, picking up new skills quickly and even offering tricks on her own to earn rewards. She enjoys enrichment like collagen sticks and relaxing in warm, cozy spaces with her people. She is also a devoted mom who raised five puppies, and that nurturing, thoughtful nature shows in how she connects with those around her.
