Stella
- Terrier mix
- 11 years
Stella, a spirited 11-year-old, found a new home at Little Oldies after her owner passed away. Despite her heart condition, she’s full of energy and joy! We’re devoted to ensuring she gets the love and care she deserves during her golden years. The doctor said most pups with this kind of heart disease live about 6 months to a year. We’re also raising funds for her cardiologist visits to keep her happy and healthy for as long as we can!

Welcome Stella to Little Oldies
When Stella's two-legged companion passed away, she found herself in need of a new home. At 11 years old, Stella went to Little Oldies with a 5/6 grade heart murmur. She has degenerative mitral valvular disease stage C, Valvular aortic stenosis, and mitral stenosis. Basically her heart valves are thickening and making her blood flow difficult and her heart is getting bigger and pressing on her lungs. Sometimes she gets fluid in her lungs and it makes her cough. Luckily, Stella doesn’t know any of this. She certainly acts like a puppy at the young age of 11!
