Hello!

As many of you know, animals are a very important part of my life. I have my 3 fur babies (Bear Winston Weiman-Jones, Nikita Danger Jones, and Vincent McPatrick O'Jones - but you can all him Vinnie). My husband is just as animal crazed as I am.

Animal rescue and well-being is very important to me. In 2013, became involved with this fantastic rescue organization; The Greater Edmonton Animal Rescue Society (GEARS). Through this, I was fortunate to be a foster dog mom to Stella; a small husky with the most amazing blue eyes you have ever seen. 

She became best friends with Vinnie. The two were inseparable. She was an absolute joy. If it was legal to have more than 3 dogs in Edmonton, we would have for sure kept her. She was also the last foster we took in for a reason you may not suspect; Vinnie got so attached and was beyond heartbroken when she left. We decided that we did not want to put our dog's hearts (or ours) through that again. It was very hard to let her go. Stella was also a fantastic girl to practice photography with; she had trouble sitting still, but otherwise was a great canine model! Such a personality!

Through no fault of her own, Stella is back with GEARS and looking for her forever home.

Stella’s Bio: Hi everyone! My name is Stella! Have you been on the hunt for a running companion that can keep up with your active lifestyle? Well, I just might be the one you’ve been looking for. I’m so active, I even run in my sleep! Aside from getting out of the house for daily runs, I can also entertain myself with toys; I love balls and anything that squeaks. I like meeting new doggy friends but I tend to get a little too excited sometimes and forget my manners. I know my basic commands like “sit” and “stay”and I’m really good off leash as well. I also get a little too excited around food when my human friends are eating; I may try and help myself to your meal. As far as my food goes, I’ve done really well on a raw diet. I’m sure there’s a lot of other stuff I could tell you about myself but why not fill out an application to see if we are a perfect match for each other? I look forward to meeting you!

I am not going to make a habit or advertising animals who need homes on my blog, as there are so many, but Stella is really special. I want her to find a fantastic home. If you or someone you know are looking for an energetic husky who loves people and is great with kids, cats, and other dogs, this is your girl!

Now go give your fur baby a hug!
