Pet of the Week: Stella
on Tuesday June 11th, 2013 at 03:00 PM
She is the happiest, cuddliest pitbull there ever is. It was love at first sight at the humane society, she looked up at my fiance and I with her one eye and we knew we just had to have her.
She knows when were sad, and need some love, and just knows how to brighten up her day. She needs to be in the middle of absolutely everything because she lives to be a big cuddly lap dog. I dont know what Id do without her
Stella looks like such a sweet girl, thank you so much for rescuing her and...
