Bella has been through a lot since losing her person, but she hasn't lost her gentle spirit or her hope. She's about five, medium-sized, and a mix of American Staffordshire Terrier and Pit Bull Terrier. Right now, she's living in a basement, mostly in her crate, because her temporary caregiver simply has too much on her plate. There's urgency—soon, that space won't be available, so Bella needs to find a loving home fast. Bella is crate-trained, knows a few good basics like 'sit,' 'paw,' and 'wait,' and is eager when food is involved. She's been through stretches without much socialization and can be shy or nervous with strangers, but for someone patient willing to give her time, she warms up and becomes the sweet, playful dog underneath. She’s lived with other dogs before; proper introductions are important since she hasn’t met all of her foster family’s pets. Bella is waiting for someone who understands what it means to help a dog regain her confidence—someone kind, patient, and ready to let her truly settle in and thrive. Ready to give Bella the new start she deserves? Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
