About Bella

Bella is a senior Flatt Coated Retriever mix looking for her forever home. At 10 years old and weighing 27 lbs, she’s a gentle soul who enjoys affection and attention. Bella thrives in a calm environment, making her a great companion for someone who spends most of their time at home. While she still loves her daily walks and rides well in a car, she prefers the company of humans over other dogs, but she gets along well with cats. Bella can feel anxious at the vet and requires calming medication for visits, which her caring adopters will need to consider. Unfortunately, her previous owners are moving and can’t take her, so she’s hoping for a quiet place to spend her golden years. Let’s help Bella find the peaceful home she deserves for the rest of her life. Ready to help her start this new chapter?
