Meet Stella & Patch – Two Adorable Pups Looking for Their Forever Home!

Stella and Patch are a beautiful young duo who, through no fault of their own, are looking for a loving new home. Their people have made the difficult decision to surrender them due to lack of time, wanting only the best for these two sweet pups who deserve all the love and attention in the world.

These adorable siblings who are still learning about life in a home environment will need some time, patience, and guidance to settle. With consistent support with their basic obedience and house training, they have lots of potential to thrive. They’re eager to please, smart, and love learning new things — especially when there are treats and cuddles involved!

Patch is an enthusiastic, affectionate boy who gets a little overexcited and unsure around other dogs. He’s still learning his manners but will soon gain confidence and polish his social skills.

Stella is the calmer of the two when meeting other dogs, though she hasn’t had much exposure yet. She’s gentle, curious, and will thrive in a supportive environment where she can slowly build her confidence.

Their ideal home would be one where they are included as part of the family, with humans who have the time, patience, and love to guide them through puppyhood. They’d do best in an active home that enjoys playtime, walks, and plenty of snuggles. We’re happy to hear from adopters or carers who feel ready to help them on this journey. They could be placed together or separately. Patch would do best with a calm, older dog who can help guide him, as he can be a little boisterous at times.

If you’re ready to open your heart and home to two loving, clever pups who will give back tenfold in affection and joy, Stella and Patch are waiting to meet you.

Neither Stella nor Patch have been tested with cats.
