Sweet Dreams Stella.

Stella follows me around from the moment I wake up and let her out of the crate. She hangs out with me in the bathroom, she stares intently as I make breakfast.Stella insists on being a part of everything. When I fill the water bottle for the guinea pigs she is there making sure I do it correctly.Stella seems to know when I am thinking about running an errand. She begins "talking" and howling until I give in and allow her to come along.In the car she stares at me while I drive. Being an exceptionally high strung dog she can't seem to relax. By the end of the day her intensity can get to be a bit much. I discovered that Stella loves to be brushed before bed. The brushing relaxes her and she begins to calm down for the first time all day. Within minutes my hyper, over attentive puppy begins to get sleepy. Stella sighs her little sigh and before long she begins to drift off to la la land. Sweet dreams Stella.

Stella and the Fountain

Maizie loves to turn on the water fountain at the dog park. It has become a new game between Stella and Maizie.
Stella jumps and drinks the water as it sprays over the bowl. She becomes quite obsessed.
Can you see her look of satisfaction? What a cutie. Stella is a handful. These trips to the dog park really help her burn off excess energy. I think Australian Cattle dogs rarely nap. Sigh.
