UPDATE – STELLA and MAXIME
Stella and Maxime are no longer in the care of Bylaw Enforcement and have been placed in an alternate care arrangement.
We would like to thank everyone who shared our posts, reached out, and offered to help — your support truly makes a difference for animals in our community.
💔 STELLA IS STILL WAITING FOR HER SAFE PLACE 💔
Stella hasn’t had the easiest start in life. Coming from a neglect situation, she’s still learning that the world can be safe—and that she doesn’t have to worry about being left behind.
Stella is the quieter one… the one who hangs back just a little, watching and hoping someone will notice her. Once she opens up to you she cuddles right up into your side and only wants love.
She is incredibly sweet, calm, and affectionate once she feels safe. Stella loves attention—And like her sister, being left alone is hard on her, which makes shelter life especially stressful.
Stella isn’t difficult… she just needs patience, kindness, and a home where she can build confidence at her own pace. 💛
✨ What she needs:
• A consistent routine
• Gentle guidance and training (crate/kennel will help!)
• A home where someone is around most of the time, especially at first
🏡 Her best fit:
• Older children
• No cats
• Someone patient who will let her come out of her shell
With the right person, Stella is going to be the kind of dog who bonds deeply and loves quietly but fully. She just needs someone willing to give her that chance.
📩 Please message us or email [email protected] if you can help—or even share to help her find her person.
🐾 Not ready to adopt but still want to help?
Volunteers to walk Stella while she’s in care—or take her out for a calm outing to help build her confidence—are so appreciated. Every little bit helps her feel safer.
