About Bella
Bella is a sweet 4-year-old Shih Tzu who found her way to All Species Kinship after her previous family struggled to care for her. Upon arrival, she dealt with a painful untreated urine infection, but she has since been spayed and is on the mend after recovering from a bladder stone. She's currently potty pad trained and learning to go outside on a schedule, which will take some patience as she hasn't had that routine before. Bella is friendly and enjoys the company of people and other pets, though she prefers the presence of her person over that of other dogs. While she hasn’t been groomed professionally yet due to her recovery, she is a medium-coat beauty with a sable color. Because Bella isn’t suited for homes with children, she would do best in a calm environment. A fenced yard is preferred, but if you have a strong vet history, other arrangements may be considered. If you’re interested in giving Bella a loving home, reach out to All Species Kinship for the next steps. Let's make it official, apply to adopt!
