Meet Stella

Stella is a 2-year-old Beagle/Chihuahua mix who is the perfect combination of sweet and spunky. Her sense of humor shines when she chomps loudly on her food, lets out dramatic sighs, or meanders down the sidewalk in anything but a straight line. She’s a big dog in a little body, always curious and eager to sniff whatever you’re eating, just to let you know she’s paying attention. When she’s not playing fetch or stealing socks, Stella can often be found gazing out the window, keeping tabs on the world around her.Though shy and anxious when she first arrived in her foster home, Stella quickly blossomed into a cuddlebug extraordinaire. She thrives on affection, and her favorite activities include snuggling up with her people, belly rubs, and playtime. Stella loves to show off her playful personality—when she's excited, she'll carry a toy around proudly or even entertain herself by tossing it and fetching it on her own! Stella is house-trained and can use pee pads if necessary, and while she isn’t a fan of going into her crate, she settles quietly and comfortably once inside. This sweet pup is content with a short daily walk and enjoys quiet moments indoors just as much as outdoor adventures. While she’s nervous about car rides and barks briefly at noises outside, she calms down quickly and doesn’t bark excessively. Stella does not require a fenced yard, as long as she gets some time outdoors to explore and sniff around.In her previous home, Stella lived with kids, dogs and cats, so we have no doubts she is a perfect family dog. While she's been in her foster home, she has just been more reserved when meeting new people and animals, so she may need a little time to warm up to them. She might need a few meetings to feel fully comfortable with strangers.If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate dog with a touch of silliness, Stella is your perfect match!If you are interested in this dog, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $450.
