Stella - Retriever and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Meet Stella!

Stella is the sweetheart of the litter and she knows it. She loves people, loves attention, and has perfected the art of the couch snuggle. If there’s a lap available and a show on TV, you’ll find Stella there.

She’s friendly with other dogs, respectful of cats (she’s interested, but she has manners), and surprisingly gentle. You’ll get plenty of kisses and not much nipping.

Stella is working on house training and sleeps in an x-pen at night. She’s a happy, easygoing girl who’s ready to be someone’s shadow, movie buddy, and favorite good-morning greeting.

Stella is estimated to be 13 weeks old and 9 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, and have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested.

If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.
