Yes Oh_hunnihunni, I have been thinking about getting an older dog from a shelter but Stella was such a clever dog that I don't want to get any old one. I have been walking a couple of dogs and they in no way compare to Stella, even Stella's stable mate that she took on as her baby and taught how to "Dog", Sadie who I know very well, is a lovely dog and I have known her for all the years she was with Stella in no way is much like Stella.
Stella greeted with a woo-woo sound and was so amenable and happy to meet people, she could say the word hello in a dog growl voice. If Jack does turn up well I know I will be rescuing him from a shelter so will be quite happy to look after him but just to pick one out of the crowd at a shelter is not what I really want to do, since I have other dogs I can walk most days if I feel the need.
We used to tell people that Stella was a Staffordshire Terrier Cross but in fact she was a Pit Bull Cross with a Bearded Collie.
That's her in my Avatar.

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
