Are you looking for a cuddle buddy to get you through this winter and beyond? Stella is a stout, snuggly queen with a big heart and an even bigger presence.
It won't surprise you that she's a true couch potato. Her favorite places to conk out include dog beds, couches and your bed, if you’re agreeable. Don’t be fooled by her professional-level lounging, though: she also enjoys getting outside for walks and dog park adventures now and then.
At home, Stella has proven herself to be a polite and tidy roommate. She’s housetrained (although every doggo needs a little grace adjusting to a new space), doesn't chew on anything she's not supposed to and knows “sit” and “lay down.”
Stella has experience living with kids and absolutely adores children around age 5 and up. (She sometimes forgets she’s a bit too big to be handled by tiny humans when both sides get overly excited.)
She’s a fan of plush toys, tug toys and - surprisingly - baths. And when it comes to treats, Stella is a refined lady with impeccable taste: Frankly Original beef chews are her absolute favorite. Hey, she knows what she likes.
As for her quirks? Fireworks are a definite no, and empty paper towel rolls are deeply suspicious. We don't ask questions - we just remove the rolls.
If Stella sounds like your kind of fun, come say hi to to her today!
