Stella

Stella is an affectionate and fun-loving Basenji puppy. She loves people and other dogs and is always ready for cuddling on the couch. Stella enjoys playing with toys from her basket and has an unusual trait for a Basenji - she puts them back in the basket when she's through playing!

Like all puppies, Stella is always ready to chew on something. She doesn't seem overly destructive though, and supplying her with appropriate chew toys should help control this behavior. Stella is housebroken and is still getting comfortable with walking on a leash. She rides well in a car and is happy sleeping in her crate or on her foster Mom's bed. Because she's young, she'll benefit from continued obedience training.

Stella had a difficult start in life but is flourishing at her foster family's home. She's missing part of her tail, which may have been injured and amputated by her mother when she was very young. Her tail isn't sensitive however and she seems to get along just fine. Stella is a very social Basenji who has always lived with her littermates and other dogs.

She would really enjoy a forever home with some canine companions, and would do well with children as well.

If you think you could provide Stella with love, activity, and evening cuddle-time, please read the data sheet below carefully, complete the BRAT adoption form (if you have not previously done so) and contact BRAT coordinator, Ann Lambertus (Wilson). The coordinator's link will take you to a form that will ask you your name, e-mail address, the city and state you live in, why this dog is perfect for your family, a typical day in your household, and, if applicable, how you plan to transport the dog.

There is an adoption fee for this dog. This fee goes to cover all costs associated with the care of current and future basenjis in rescue. BRAT adopters receive a dog that has been spayed or neutered, fully vaccinated, temperament evaluated, and tested negative for heartworm and Fanconi (unless otherwise noted). In addition, BRAT provides free lifetime post-adoption counseling to help deal with behavioral issues and also provides a free lifetime identification tag connected to our "lost dog" toll free number.
