About Bella

Meet Bella! Bella is a charming 6-year-old Havanese who loves to cuddle and hopes for a lap to snuggle on. Though she may take some time to warm up, once she does, her playful personality shines. She adores toys, especially balls, and even brought one to her foster mom while she was in the shower—fetch waits for no one! Bella gets along well with the dogs in her foster home and has shown signs of separation anxiety. She’d thrive in a home where someone either works remotely or is retired, as she truly loves companionship. A wonderful companion awaits the special adopter who is ready for Bella's love!
