Stella is our cherished German Shepard/Finnish Spitz puppy! You may have seen her around downtown Lake Forest on a walk. We rescued her at 8 weeks old from the Heartland Animal Shelter. She is our baby and brings us great joy! Many people ask about the doggy backpack she wears. Since her breed is a working dog we have incorporated the backpack to make her feel like she has a job. She loves it and wont go on her walk without it!
