One of two dogs rescued with the help of sponsorships and donations, Stella was being fed by Lito, but had a case of TVT - Transmissable Venereal Tumour - which is treatable, but expensive.  Originally part of a larger pack, the other strays have been taken away by the City for destruction, or poisoned.

Despite all this, she is the happiest of dogs, friendly towards everyone, no doubt from the care given by Lito in the community.  So many strays may continue to live comfortable, safe lives if they are cared for collectively in a neighborhood, but this is a rare occurrence indeed.
