Bella Rose the Cutie with the Wiggle Booty

Bella Rose sounds like the name of a sweetheart in a movie and honestly... it fits her perfectly. This girl has one of those soft, angelic faces that immediately makes you trust her, the kind where you look at her and instantly think awww sweet baby. Then she starts wiggling her whole little body in excitement to come say hi and its pretty much game over for you. Between her happy wiggle butt, adorable freckles scattered throughout her body, and the gentle, easygoing way she moves through life, Bella Rose has this naturally comforting presence about her that just makes people smile. She's sweet without being over the top, playful without being wild, and has the kind of personality that makes her feel easy to picture in everyday life. The type of dog that quickly becomes part of the routine, part of the family, and honestly... one of your favorite parts of the day.

Bella Rose is believed to be a pittie mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 57 lbs. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue, its always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age.

Bella is honestly the perfect middle ground when it comes to affection. She's not the type that's going to follow you into the bathroom, crawl into your skin, or dramatically throw herself on top of you demanding attention every second of the day. But she's also not distant either. She has this really easy, natural way of showing affection where she'll come lean into you for pets, curl up beside you on the couch, quietly follow you from room to room, and check in throughout the day just enough to make you feel loved and connected to her. It's actually such a refreshing kind of companionship. She gives affection in a very genuine, calm way that feels comforting instead of overwhelming. Like she just wants to be part of your life and near her people without needing to be the center of attention 24/7.

One thing Bella absolutely does get excited about though? Her toys. Especially balls! Give this girl a tennis ball and she is fully entertained. She loves tossing them around for herself, chasing after them, carrying them from room to room, and happily creating her own little games without needing constant interaction from you. It's honestly really nice because she has no problem entertaining herself for long stretches of time while you work, clean the house, or just relax nearby. Every now and then she'll look over at you like, "did you see that?" after making a great catch or dramatic pounce, which somehow makes it even cuter. She has this fun, playful side to her that comes out so naturally with toys, and it's such a good balance with her otherwise easygoing personality.

Ideal Home

Bella Rose would do best in a home with a male dog that is not too playful but not too lazy either. She would also do best in a home with no cats. We truly believe Bella would be happiest in a home with a backyard and a semi-active family that enjoys including their dog in everyday life.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns were mentioned in her listing.

Training & Support

Bella has shown to be a smart little lady and is treat motivated. She already knows some basic commands such as sit, is crate trained and from what we have seen, she is potty trained too. Bella does pull on a leash and is currently practicing her leash manners and learning how to walk like a lady. She is being gentle lead trained and is already showing so much improvement with her leash skills and not pulling as much when she walks with her gentle lead on. She does great with structured leash walks and we do believe she would be a great companion to take with you on outings, walks around the neighborhood, or even mini hikes with the right handler.
