About Bella

Meet Bella!

This spirited ten-month-old Labrador Retriever mix is a vibrant burst of joy wrapped in a striking white coat with black patches. Bella is a medium-sized girl at around 55 pounds, and she greets life with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a heart full of affection! She is the kind of companion who happily makes friends with new people, enjoys being close to her family, and brings warmth wherever she goes.

Raised in a rural setting with plenty of room to roam, Bella loves outdoor adventures. Whether she is sprinting across open spaces, investigating every interesting scent, chasing birds, carrying sticks like prized treasures, or settling down with a favorite chew toy and a tasty treat, she embraces each day with excitement! Her playful spirit is balanced by a sweet demeanor that makes her a wonderful companion for those who enjoy an active lifestyle. Bella knows how to sit, comes when called, is crate-trained, house-trained, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. She is comfortable spending time on her own and does well when left alone for up to four hours. Daily dental chews are part of her care routine.

Ideal Home

Bella has done well with calm, respectful older children and would be delighted to share adventures, walks, and relaxing evenings with her favorite humans. She needs a pet-free home. A securely fenced yard, rural setting, or access to plenty of outdoor exercise would allow her to continue enjoying the active lifestyle she loves.

Ongoing Health

Bella is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations.

Training & Support

Bella is house-trained and crate-trained. She needs adopters who are committed to ongoing positive reinforcement training and behavior support, especially given her history of serious conflicts with a canine housemate that resulted in bite injuries.
