Birth place: New Hampshire

Age: 5
Weight: 35 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont

Stopping her spinning once she starts, being picked on by her three half brothers, and going to the vet.
​
Note: Stella is our "special" puppy. She was born with some neurological issues. She is doing very well here in our home environment and seems to be a very happy and healthy young lady. When she becomes excited she runs in very tight circles so it's not looking very promising for her to be a sled dog but you never know!
