About Bella

Bella is a resilient one-year-old German Shepherd who faced abandonment but has bounced back beautifully. Found tied to a post with just a note explaining her situation, she’s ready to find her forever home. This black-and-tan beauty weighs about 55 pounds and has a medium coat that makes her even more stunning. With a personality that's a mix of affection and playfulness, Bella loves belly rubs and thinks they’re the best invention ever. She's fully house and crate-trained, knowing commands like 'sit' and 'stay'. While she lives with cats, she tends to chase them, so a home without them is ideal. Bella thrives on structure and needs an active family that enjoys training and exercise. Previously abandoned, she deserves a family that understands her worth and is ready to love her fully. With proper training and daily activity, Bella will shine bright. Transport can be arranged for those out of town; the Houston-based rescue has her covered. **Ready to fall in love?
