About Bella
Meet Bella - the stumpy staffy with tiny corgi legs! Bella has had a bit of upheaval in her life, but she has powered through and is a loving, beautiful little lady.
Bella is not a very active dog, she is happy to lounge around and sunbake or curl up under a blanket on the couch - of course, she will not complain about belly rubs either!
On a regular lead, Bella can pull a little from excitement, however is very easily controlled. On a head collar, she is an absolute dream. She can go-go-go once you're out and thoroughly enjoys her walks, her age has not slowed her down! Her foster carer loves taking her on adventures, so she is great in the car and would make a fantastic hiking buddy.
Bella isn't a huge fan of other dogs, so best to avoid meeting too many other dogs on walks. She can get a bit excited or snappy, but is very easily distracted or moved away, and follows your lead if you ignore the other dog.
Her foster carer has had other dogs visit, and with proper introduction Bella can share her space with another dog for short periods, but would prefer not to if given the choice. She really would like all your love to herself!
Bella loves people and is happy for visitors, especially if they’ll give her a belly rub! She can be a little nervous of tiny kids poking and prodding, so no children should live in the home.
Bella is generally very good about commands such as sit, stay, wait, drop, shake - she certainly can learn new tricks! She is a smart girl who loves to please. She’s good with her food, and loves a treat which is great for training.
Bella is completely house trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside.
Overall Bella is looking for:
- A loving quiet home
- No other dogs or small animals
- A short walk per day, but she wont complain about more!
- Somebody who has had dogs before and is good at dog training
You must:
- Be willing to continue her training and manners
- Be ready to love Bella for life!
If you're ready to be all of that for Bella, please send through an inquiry and meet this beautiful little girl!
Medical notes
Bella has been desexed, chipped, and vaccinated. She has also recently undergone a dental cleaning so her mouth is sparkly clean.
Bella is currently on 10mg of Lovan each day for her anxiety- a very small dose that has been lowered while in care. This should be able to be weaned off once Bella is in her forever home- and will cost the new owner less than $20 every few months.
