Congratulations Burley and Stella, Dog's Best Friend's Dogs of the Month, September and October


Burley has been one of our friends for awhile now and we're so proud of all he's accomplished.

Saved from the mean streets of LA by his Mom, Jill, he has gone from Street Dog to Canine Good Citizen. He's a happy, well-adjusted guy who loves walks, playing and training with Mom.

But something has been missing in his life. A canine companion that he could wrestle and cuddle with. He loves his Mom, but he missed having a four-legged friend.

Thankfully, just a short time ago, along came adorable Stella. She too was homeless, saved from a local shelter by a good Samaritan, she just wanted a family of her own. With the help of Joni Powell, one Dog's Best Friend's clients, an introduction was made and FIREWORKS. Burley was in love. He'd found his soul mate and guess what, Mom approved.

It's been just a few weeks, but Burley and Stella act like they've been together forever. They play hard all day long, walk perfectly together and cuddle together in their bed. We're so delighted to spend time with this lovely couple. Watching their puppy love bloom right before of our eyes!

Congratulations, Stella and Burley! We love you!

I love stories like this! More people should take in homeless dogs! I think people like Jill are very very special!
