Bella is a six-year-old German Shepherd/Labrador mix who tips the scale at over eighty pounds. She’s got a big presence and an even bigger personality. Bella came into rescue after her family left her at a city shelter, but she’s left that chapter behind and is ready for a home where she’ll be cherished. She loves the water, car rides, and sticking close to her people. Bella has some play history with other dogs and cats but thrives best as the only dog or with a calm male dog companion. She is house trained, knows her basic manners, and uses a doggie door. Routine is important for Bella, especially since she’s been working on her resource guarding—she feels strongly about treats and Kleenex, so small children aren’t a good fit for her new home. She’s up-to-date on all her vaccines, spayed, and microchipped. Bella loves activity and exploring her surroundings, but her endurance is on the lower side due to her size. She’s loyal, affectionate, and waiting for a soft spot to land. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
