Stella is sniffing out the best toys to donate next. When we get cash donations we get to pick what to donate and Stella is the expert toy picker.

We’re raising funds for Stella’s Pause for the Cause to bring more toys, joy, and tail wags to pups who deserve the VIP treatment (Very Important Pup, obviously). Every donation = more squeaks, more zoomies, and fewer judgmental stares from dogs like Stella.

Help us turn “one sad squeaky toy” into a full-blown doggy paradise. Your support goes a long way—straight into paws that will absolutely destroy those toys in 5 minutes flat.
