Hi, I’m Stella! I’m a very sweet girl with a big heart, but I can be a little shy sometimes. I like to take my time when meeting new people—slow introductions make me feel safe. Once I trust you, though, I’ll be your most loyal friend, full of love, cuddles, and tail wags! One thing to know about me is that I don’t like loud noises; they make me feel a little nervous. I prefer calm and gentle environments where I can relax and be my happy self.

Hey, I’m Zayn. I’ve been told I’ve got that dark, mysterious charm and just the right amount of swagger. There’s energy buzzing through me like a live wire—I’m not the type to sit still for long. I crave action, challenge, movement. Truth is, I’ve been coasting a bit too long without direction, and now I’m ready to channel this fire into something real. Training, discipline, an active lifestyle—it’s calling to me .Are you ready to help me answer?
