Bella ~ Kelpie x (On Trial 10/10/16)

Hi! I’m Bella, and I'm a 1 year old Kelpie X . My name suits me because everyone tells me I’m a really beautiful girl.

I know my manners and can shake your hand, sit, stay, and wait for food when I’m told. I know to get on my bed when I’m asked, and I scratch at the door to go out to the toilet. If I want to come inside, I will give the door a little scratch then sit until you tell me to come in. I’m pretty good at coming when called, especially when there aren’t many distractions. Sometimes at the beach I get excited and walk off a bit too far, but a little trust and training will fix that, I really like training, I think it’s a fun game.

I like exploring and I would need a secure yard with at least 5ft fencing. I think fetch is fun and tug of war too. I also enjoy destroying a tennis ball; that can keep me busy for a little while!

I love little kids, and I don’t mind it when they give me a cuddle as long as they’re gentle. I also love going for walks and playing in the yard, but I like to have a snooze on my inside bed through the day. I would do best in a home where I’m not left alone all day often, as I really like spending time with my family. Regular walks and play time are important for me.

I’m happy to sleep outside in my kennel at night, but I love coming in for a snuggle in the morning. I like snuggles any time of the day really! I will even try to cuddle up to my foster family’s other dog, and I love to give her kisses. I am great with other dogs. I really like getting a good scratch and a pat as well.

My adoption fee is $400, and I'm desexed, vaccinated, treated for worms, microchipped, and lifetime registered.

If you'd like to ask about me, please contact my foster carer Madi at Madison.bernasconi@hotmail.com, or 0401596326.
I am in foster care in Charlestown (Lake Macquarie, South of Newcastle) and I am available for interstate adoption.
