Story
Howl-o there! My name is Stellaluna, but my foster family calls me Stella for short. They named me Stellaluna because I have really big ears and really sweet doe eyes, which resembles the adorable literary bat, Stellaluna. I’m a black beauty, as my foster mom tells me every day!
Here’s a little bit about me! My personality can be described as sweet, affectionate, energetic and playful. Before arriving at my foster mom’s house, I spent my life outside in a dirty pen with my mom and siblings. Thankfully PetPromise stepped up and took my siblings and me in, so we could live indoors and be loved and spoiled by our foster families. I was born on or around May 1st and I already weigh over 15 pounds. I’m going to be a good-sized dog, getting into the 50-60 pound range. My mom jokes that I look like I have a bit of Great Dane in my genes! This is a total guess, but my foster mom thinks I have some Pittie, some lab, and maybe a pinch of Great Dane! It’s hard to tell for sure, but one thing we know for sure, is I’m 100% cute, 100% sweet, and 100% deserving of an amazing home!
I’m an energetic puppy that loves to run and play out in the yard. My foster mom says that a fenced-in yard is at the top of the list of things I need to be happy in my new home. I’m energetic and love to play and play and play, so access to the outdoors will help me expend some of my puppy energy, which I have a lot of! My foster mom also thinks puppy school would be perfect for me, so I can continue learning my commands and learning to be the best puppy I can be. I am quite needy at times, so I’m looking for a family that isn’t too busy and has LOTS of time to spend with me. I love attention and love being held, so my perfect family would be one that is active and ready and willing to give me all the love and attention I need. I’ll need plenty of exercise too!
I’m working on potty-training, but will need more practice with this one. I sleep through the night in my crate and will go right outside in the morning to go potty. I still have the occasional accident, but my foster mom tells me I’m a very good girl and that I’m right on track. I’m still working on learning what things I can play with and how to be more gentle when I play. I don’t realize my size sometimes, but I’m getting better with this one! I do really well with the other dogs in my foster home. I’ve not been around cats or kids before. I love chew-toys and stuffies, so I’ll need a family that is going to buy me tons of toys!! I’m an inquisitive girl and I don’t miss much, so I’ll need stimulation, training, and lots of attention, so I can grow up to be the happiest and most well-behaved puppy I can be!
If you’re looking to add a dog-friendly, active, affectionate, smart, and playful puppy to your family, then I might be the dog for you! I’m going to be a good-sized dog, so I would NOT be a good fit for a family with kids under the age of 10 nor a small apartment. I need a family that has plenty of time to give me all the attention and training I need and deserve, as well as the space I need to run and play. A family that has time to give me all the love and affection I need is top priority…along with a fenced in yard, of course! If you’re interested in spoiling me rotten, please fill out an adoption application today!
FYI: I’ve already been spayed and microchipped and I’m almost done with all my shots. I’m excited to say that I’m ready to find my family!
