About this Dog
Dear Diary, It’s me, Stella—the couch-respecting, zoomie-doing, snack-waiting professional good girl. Today I curled into my signature pretzel pose (seriously, I fold up like a tiny travel iron) and patiently waited for someone to notice how adoptable I am. Spoiler: still waiting. I don’t mean to brag (okay, I do), but I’m basically the perfect roommate. I politely wait to be invited on the couch, go into my crate like a champ, and I’m a real lady when it comes to mealtime manners. I take treats soooo gently you'd think I was trying not to crinkle a leaf. I'm not destructive when left alone—just a chill little loaf waiting for you to come back. I've got the perfect balance of chill and fun, can match any energy level, and when I do my little polite sit and then burst into zoomies? It's a crowd-pleaser. Also? I look absolutely ridiculous (in the best way) when I throw myself into full bat mode—face upside down, belly up, legs flying—just waiting for some 10/10 belly rubs. I fully commit to the flop. The kids call me Stella Bella or Stelly Belly, and honestly? I eat that up. I’ve attended dog playgroups during boarding without any problems (I’ve got social skills, thank you very much), and even the vet techs during my last visit couldn’t get enough of me. Apparently, I sound like a bit of a goober on leash, but once I’m home or riding in the car with my favorite humans (especially the tiny ones!), I’m basically a certified angel. I even lived with a cat once and kept it classy. Foster dad says I’m perfect. I say—he’s right. Still confused why no one’s adopted me yet. Maybe I need a TikTok. Or a sandwich board. Or a skywriter. Anyway, Diary... maybe tomorrow will be my day. Love, Stella (2 years, 46 pounds of love) Apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/AAHA/Dog
Contribute to Stella's Stash!

100% of Stella's balance will be sent to whoever adopts Stella.
Adopt Stella and Receive Stella's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Stella's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Stella's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Stella, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Stella's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Stella was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Stella’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Stella’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Stella’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
