About Bella

Bella is a laid-back senior Chihuahua looking for a peaceful retirement home where she can reign as the queen of her castle. She enjoys soaking up sunshine, relaxing on soft pillows, savoring tasty treats, and receiving chin scratches from her favorite person. While she may bark at unfamiliar visitors, she hasn't had experience living with cats or children. A quieter lifestyle suits her best, making a mature household ideal. With some routine, she's been doing well with potty training during her month in her previous home. Currently in a loving foster home, interested adopters can reach out to her foster parent, Kristen, at csfostermom@gmail.com for inquiries or visits. A meet-and-greet is required before adoption. Adopters should be available to meet within 48 hours of inquiry, or preference may go to the next person in line. Current pets can't meet Bella before adoption for safety reasons. After the meet-and-greet, adopters will have 24 hours to visit the HSPPR Adoptions Lobby to complete the paperwork and finalize the adoption. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
