Bella

Meet sweet Bella, a 1½-year-old mixed breed who has undergone a remarkable transformation in the past few months from a timid stray to a confident, sweet, and inquisitive girl. Witnessing what love, guidance, and trust can achieve is inspiring! Bella is the complete package: house-trained, kennel-trained, energetic, and playful. She loves every person she meets, big or small, and her happiness is contagious. She’s a smart cookie - sharp and observant, with a confidence beautifully balanced by her attentiveness. Bella looks you right in the eye, seeking guidance and soaking up every bit of praise and touch. Training her is a joy because she responds eagerly, making the process enjoyable for both of us. Bella’s so graceful and agile, almost gliding up and down the stairs. Her affectionate nature is equally endearing, and her soulful golden eyes have a way of melting your heart as she looks at you with pure adoration. She constantly makes us chuckle with her quirky mannerisms and expressive sounds. Bella has a delightful repertoire of happy moans, sighs, and yawns that never fail to make us smile, especially when she’s ready for an adventure and we are taking a bit too long to get ready!! Bella would excel at agility, hiking, or other enrichment activities. She doesn't necessarily “need a job”, as she is perfectly content lying beside her people while they work. However, being young, curious, and smart, Bella would enjoy the challenge and stimulation of those activities. Want to learn more about Bella?
