| Stella is a dark chocolate (she looks black in photos) Dachshund Terrier Mix who is going on 2 years old and weighs 18lbs. She was rescued in TX from an area notorious for dumping unwanted dogs and brought to MD to find her forever home. She has a condition to her right eye called microphthalmia which is a big word for "born with an abnormally small eye". As a result, she has very limited vision in that eye but Stella is not “broken”. She is one of the sweetest, happy-go-lucky, loving, snuggling, pups we have had the pleasure of fostering. Someone is going to get themselves a wonderful baby that is eager to learn her forever homes ways & routines. Stella is house-broken (we let her out regularly), crate trained, a good eater and doesn’t bark. We have only heard her let out a bark one time while we were playing and we think she even surprised herself! She takes treats so gently it’s almost funny. She does great on road trips and when left alone in the house. Stella enjoys walks and is always happy to meet other walkers along the way and although she is wonderful with our senior Dachshund Mix she is not yet sure about other dogs when she is leased. She likes lounging around but since she is young she would fit best with a someone that has the time to play with her each day. She will also require a home with a securely fenced yard. If you are interested in adopting Stella, please fill out an application. Once approved we can set up a meet and greet in Odenton, MD to see if Stella would be a good fit for you and your household. Her adoption fee is $275. |
