Hi! I’m

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!

Stella just can’t resist checking out the dishwasher… again! Maybe she’s helping, or maybe she’s just looking for a snack. Why can't it be both?

Stella, the Morning Motivator

Stella, the Morning Motivator

Unlike the chihuahuas who refuse to get up, Stella is ready the moment the alarm goes off! She pops up, will stare you down, and silently dares you to hit snooze. If she could talk, I’m pretty sure she’d have a full monologue about her plans for the day, her hopes for warmer weather, and whatever else is on her mind!

Tiny but Mighty

Tiny but Mighty

Stella has a serious heart murmur, and while the vet gave her 6 months to a year, she’s still thriving 9 months later! Her heart may be fragile, but her spirit is strong. The cost of her vet visits and medications adds up, and every donation helps keep her going strong. We’re so grateful for the support to keep Stella healthy and happy.

Medication Time

Medication Time

Every morning, after getting her daughter off to school, it’s med time for the Little Oldies crew! Most of them love peanut butter, which makes things super easy, but one prefers turkey meatballs—perfect for sneaking meds in. They’re all so good about it, so everyone gets a little extra treat afterward.

Welcome Stella to Little Oldies

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!
