About Bella

Meet Bella, a charming little chihuahua mix with a big personality! At 5 years old and weighing 17 lbs, she’s as adorable as they come. Bella spent much of her life in a loving home until the dynamics changed, making her environment unsafe. She's housebroken, although she had a few accidents recently, likely due to stress. With some patience and understanding, she'll find her footing in a new setting. At H.A.L.O., we’ve noticed that Bella can be selective about her dog friends, which may stem from past experiences. We encourage a proper introduction to any dogs in your home to ensure a good match. Interestingly, she does well with cats, showing no aggression and even choosing to run away rather than confront. With time, she might develop a friendly relationship with them! Bella is a bit shy at first but quickly warms up when she feels secure. She’s been around children before, but we recommend a home with kids aged 5 and above who can respect her space. Bella loves outdoor walks, car rides, and, of course, snuggling up with her humans. Just be cautious with open doors; she’s got a curious streak! If Bella sounds like your perfect companion, come meet her at H.A.L.O.! Requirements for her care include a Martingale collar.
