Arrival Story:
I had a bad case of "empty nest fever", figured getting a dog would fill the gap. Saw an ad in the newspaper while at work for an 11 mo old Jack Russell Terrier for sale. Convinced a co-worker to take a ride (since it was close to the office) to check it out. When we arrived Stella (then known as JR, real creative!) came running down the steps from a tiny apartment looking like "get me out of here"...."I really need some yard space". It was love at first sight, all I had to do is to convince my husband. So I told the guy not to sell her to anyone else until I called him later in the day. I got the O.K. from the "boss" and went right back after work to take her home. That was almost 5 years ago!

Bio:
Some how or another, in the 11 mos in the tiny apartment I got very protective/agressive and am not very nice to other animals or any people (other than who live in MY house). Mommy and Daddy brought me to training classes. I really had fun at school and enjoyed chasing all of the big dogs. But all the time I spent in school did not make my anger any better. The teacher said that I have many, many issues! So when Mommy and Daddy has company they bring out the muzzle or put me in my crate until those people leave!
