Hi there! My name is Stella and I'm a super soft, sweet lady who is looking for a loving family for my fur-ever home. I arrived at Berkshire Humane Society with my sister when our previous owners could no longer care for us. In that home, I wasn't trained to walk on leash and didn't have social interaction with anyone but my people and my sister. So now I'll require adopters willing to provide me with the proper training and social skills I need to thrive. I've done wonderfully with my house training and I consistently keep my kennel area tidy. Because I'm fearful of many things, including loud noises, walking through tight spaces, being grabbed at and sudden movements, a home with children over 13 years would be ideal. It's possible I could go home with a male dog pending a successful dog introduction, especially since I've done well in playgroups with a few of the other shelter dogs. Overall, I'd benefit from a patient owner who is keen on helping me work on basic obedience skills and taking things slow. Some of my favorite activities are snuggling with my humans, going for walks outside, playing in the fenced pens and relaxing in the sunshine.

If you think I could be a good fit for your family, please call the kennel at (413) 447-7878 ext.126 to speak with staff and learn more about how to meet me and hopefully take me home!
