Sweet and spirited Bella Bo Ella first came into our care back in September, at only 6 months old, after the older dog in her home struggled to accept Bella’s high-energy attempts at play. Bella hasn’t slowed down since then, so an active home with the ability to offer a variety of physical and mental enrichment would be a perfect fit for this “energizer-doggo”! Bella adores canine playtime and is mostly good at sharing, but she is still learning about the polite way to respond if another pup says “no” to playtime. Luckily, in Bella’s foster home, she has a best friend her age to get the wiggles out with, and a senior dog who is helping her learn more about polite dog interactions. Bella can easily grow over-excited during playtime, so she is looking for a home that is comfortable monitoring playtime, and using positive reinforcement techniques to help Bella take a break when needed. Bella thinks cats are intended for epic games of chase; due to this prey drive, she is seeking a home with no cats or other small, free-roaming animals. Bella is an absolute cuddle bug who loves her people and will bask in all the attention she can get! She loves to be right next to her humans at all times, and would be more than content to lay on the couch with a movie going or walking around the neighbourhood happily taking treats for her good behaviour. If you have an active and affectionate household who can keep up with Bella’s zest for life, come meet this sweet lady today!
