Stella
​Pickwick's Watching the Stars Align

Pickwick's Watching the Stars Align (Stella Artois)

Stella's identification color as a puppy was black and she is one of our picks of the litter so enjoying life at Castle McLelland! Cobby, short back, amazing structure, gorgeous head (looks just like her father), and brilliant. Her temperament test showed her to be outgoing and full of personality. The evaluator, a dog trainer and breeder of Golden Retrievers for therapy dogs, said both Stewart (Purple Boy) and Stella were amazing and she only marked "not well suited for search and rescue" lol because they were pugs, but that they pretty much would be fit for anything! We'll start out with the conformation ring then head off to whatever direction she seems to love.
Stella celebrated her 2nd puppy class by going to PetSmart to get a fancy, new pink coat. She flirted with the super nice cashier to get some free treats :) It's cold in Alabama this January, 2020!

Mom, would you PLEASE take these tags off my coat so I won't look like Fannie Price?

Don't worry … she sat in her crate once we started driving home. Had to help her mom eat takeout first, though :)
​Stella, Marie Claire, and Rocket Girl love playing keep away outside! And Stella was the lucky one to be able to attend the 1/24/20 piano pizza party. The piano students who attended were all "dog savvy" so it was a great opportunity for her to show off her pink Paris dress :) lolz. (We finally got that ear taped again …. she likes flying it :)
Stella had fun observing her 1st dog show in Clemson, SC. She also was thankful for her new fleece jacket because it was COLD in that horse arena!
Stella loves to peep out of the star hole in the puppy pen!

George Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître, 1894-1966, a Belgian Catholic priest, mathematician, astronomer, and professor of physics. He proposed the origin of the universe, initially calling it the "hypothesis of the primeval atom.”

​The registered names of the puppies for the Lemaître litter are taken from lyrics of songs by the Norwegian techno pop group, Lemaitre. Identification color - black. We are calling her Astria. (Ancient Greek: Ἀστραῖα; "star-maiden" or "starry night"), in ancient Greek religion, Astoria is a daughter of Astraeus and Eos and the goddess of justice, innocence, purity and precision. She is closely associated with the Greek goddess of justice, Dike (daughter of Zeus and Themis).
