About Bella

Bella is a charming 9-year-old female Labrador Retriever, weighing in at 70 pounds. Her family's move made it necessary to find her a new home. They had lovingly raised her since she was a puppy, and it's clear she has a lot of love to give in return. Described as sweet and loyal, Bella thrives on companionship. She adores being alongside her people, whether that means following them around, snuggling on the couch, or playing fetch with her favorite toys. Bella's gentle nature makes her a wonderful match for families with children, as she is great with kids of all ages. Although she can be a bit anxious in new environments, she quickly adjusts when she feels secure. Her foster family praises her for being housetrained and kennel trained, although she needs some work on her leash manners—she tends to pull when excited. Currently located in San Francisco, CA, Bella is up to date on vaccinations, and arrangements are in place for her spay surgery scheduled for mid-November. She has a sweet personality and is looking for a forever home where she can feel loved and secure. If you adopt Bella, you will gain an exceptional companion who brings joy and affection.
