About Bella
Bella is an affectionate, sweet, loving girl.
She adores kids and is happiest when in the company of her foster carers boy.
She is gentle, loves to give kisses, but only when asked and has lovely manners.
When she is inside she happily sits in her bed very quietly but if you let her she loves to snuggle on the couch with you.
She will wait at an opened door until you ask her to come inside, sit when asked and takes her treats gently.
Bella is currently living with 3 other dogs and she gets along very well with them. She doesn't play rough and tumble but happily follows them around all day and lays with them in the sun.
She adores our children but I think little ones may just be a bit too much for her.
Bella would be happy to have either a doggy friend to keep her company or someone who is home most of the time.
So if love is what you are after, this beautiful little girl has oodles and oodles to share with you.
Medical notes
Bella has been desexed, vaccinated and micro chipped. She is up to date with flea and worm control.
Adoption details
Once the animal is advertised candidates for adoption are requested to fill in a form.
The adoption questionnaire form asks where the animal will sleep, details of people and other animals in the home, training and exercise plans etc. We use this form as part of our screening process.
If we like what we read and the animal’s individual needs are met we then conduct an informal phone interview.
Then the potential adopter meets the animal at the carers home or the carer may choose to take the animal to the adopter’s home to do a house and yard inspection.
If the adopter meets the animal at the carer’s home a house/yard inspection is done after the meet.
When the yard inspection is done we are able to further evaluate the suitability of the candidate to adopt.
If we are satisfied that the animals needs will be met by the adopter and that they are a good match for one another then a trial period may begin.
We have legally binding pre-adoption forms which allow us to remove the animal from the home if all other solutions to issues have failed.
We have a good support base which adopters can utilise if needed, such as a professional trainer, a behaviourist, vets and a groomer.
Homeless Hounds offers support to our adopters for the life of the animal. It is policy that each adopter is aware that if the ever need help or to rehome the animal then HH wants to facilitate that.
Our procedures are based on advice from "model" and well established rescue groups and trial and error.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
