Sweet Stella & Petey

Stella and Petey are sweet Brittanys that were adopted within a few months of each other. Sammie was a beautiful soul who loved everyone!

This page began with the adoption of � Sweet Sammie, a blind rescue dog from American Brittany Rescue (ABR). She had multiple medical issues that her brother Cooper helped her through. Sammie and Cooper were with me through many life changes, including finding my passion in life, orangutans �! We moved from CO to FL so I could work at my dream job, the Center for Great Apes. Sammie passed away sho

rtly after our arrival in FL. During that time I became very focused on raising money for orangutans through my Color Street business, Sparkle for Orangutans with Darlene. A few years later I wanted to adopt a companion for Cooper. He had Mei who passed within 4 months of adoption and then Stella for a few months before he passed away from a brain tumor. Like Sammie, Stella is blind and absolutely adorable! Sammie taught me a great deal and it has enabled me to be a good mom to Stella.

💗🐾 Hey, everyone! We’ve been on the go lately! I've been pouring my heart into supporting the apes with Sparkle for Orangutans and Charmed by Chimps, while these two furballs have been enjoying their backyard adventures and plenty of naps. 🐶🌿

I recently had an amazing time at the Color Street conference—such a great experience with wonderful friends, packed with inspiration and knowledge! 🎉 Plus, I’ve just started a business program to help grow my little venture. I’m fully committed to building something special for our family, and I’d love to have you join us on this journey!

💗🐾 For those of you new to our page, Stella is blind and has epilepsy. She takes medication which has been a miracle in that she no longer has seizures! Stella is quite independent, just like her angel sister Sweet Sammie was. And, just like Sammie, Stella can be a wild child!

🐾💗 Stella asking for dinner!

06/09/2024

💗🐾 Do you think Petey likes playing in the dirt?!? Watch till the end so you can see 🐾 Stella initiate play with 🐾Petey!

06/09/2024

🐾💗 Stella and her treat ball! She definitely liked it! It’s completely gone and now she is working on Petey’s treat ball!

06/07/2024

🌺🐾 Happy Friday!!! Stella is using her sniffer to try and get to the hibiscus flowers on the top of the bush! (This type of hibiscus is non-toxic to dogs, the orangutans love them too!) This girl amazes me every day! Stella is blind and so independent and self-assured!
It had been blazing hot 🥵 here in Florida. We are in a heat dome! Stella and Petey can only be outside for short amounts of time before I have them come in to rehydrate and rest… My work at the sanctuary 🦧 has been impacted by the heat as well. Close attention is always given to the apes and their wellbeing. We are sure to give them water individually so we can track their intake to keep them hydrated 💧and happy! Caregivers are very active and participate in lots of outdoor physical activities 🏃🏻‍♀️ throughout the day. It is easy for us to get dehydrated as well! Lots of fluids and electrolytes are a staple to stay on our 👣 two feet!

🐾💗 Sweet Stella bean is such a cutie and likes to eat dirt!

06/02/2024

🐾🐾💗 Do these two look like they are tuckered out?!? The fenced in yard has been wonderful for them and for me! Except the dirt that they track in! Lol!

06/01/2024

🐾🐾 We are running into the weekend telling everyone, including the squirrels 🐿️ about the final day of our Howling Hounds Sanctuary Rescue Color Street Fundraiser! In need of some clean, vegan, and CRUELTY-FREE beauty products while supporting dogs in need? Don’t miss out on this chance to make a difference!
