Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE PAGE BEFORE YOU INQUIRE ABOUT BELLA
Also, please be sure that you are ready for the full time job of taking care and training a puppy. Puppies are NOT housebroken, chew, have endless amounts of energy and will be a member of your family for up to 20 years.
Hi everybody my name is Bella. Well foster Mom also calls me Bella Wella, Belly Boo, Bella Louella and all kinds of silly names, but she always says it like she really, really loves me so I ignore that she is silly! I just came to Bald Is Beautiful and no I am NOT bald at all. In fact, I have beautiful black hair with on my tummy, inside of my legs and on my face. Foster Mom says that the brown markings over my eyes make me look like I have headlights. The shelter said that I was a Schnauzer/Chihuahua. Foster Mom says she thinks definitely Miniature Schnauzer but she isn't so sure about the Chi part.
I am just tiny little peanut (3.8 pounds) and everyone thinks that I am 4 months old. I am a sweet little girl who loves to cuddle but I also love to be done to play, play, play. I do zoomies in the yard with my foster sissy Angel and boy do we have fun. I also love to wrestle and play tug of war with my sister Bianca. I get along great with all the other dogs in my foster home even though they are bigger than me and sometimes knock me over when we are all trying to get out the door to go potty at the same time. I kind of like the KAT that lives here too but she doesn't think she likes me. She says that I am just a big flea but boy do I like to play with her tail when she switches it back and forth. My foster Mom and foster Auntie think I am just as cute as cute can be. I am very inquisitive and not afraid of anything! I was the first to climb the stairs, explore the backyard, get up on the sofa, climb the puppy stairs to Foster Mom's bed 'cause I am VERY brave. I didn't bark for the first few days but now I bark to get attention, be picked up or when Foster Mom is taking too long to get my food ready.
We are working on housebreaking and I am kind of learning to go to the door to let Mom know that I have to potty. I have already had a few times when the puppy pads in my play pen have been dry in the morning. Foster Mom gets all excited when that happens and gives me kisses and tells me I am a good girl. I am already spayed and will have a vet visit next week to make sure that I have all my booster shots (I don't think I am going to like that) and should be ready to go to my new home within the next 2 weeks.
Our adoption procedure is as follows: * Email the foster coordinator and ask for an application. * Submit the application to the foster person * Application will be reviewed, personal and vet references will be checked * A phone call to the potential adopting home may be made and/or emails sent with further questions. * Home visit scheduled and completed
***Bald Is Beautiful DOES ship. It is the responsibility of the new adopter to arrange and pay for shipping / pick up.
Bald Is Beautiful does not adopt out to homes with unaltered pets, homes with invisible fencing or children under 10 years old. If you are intersted in this furbaby, email the foster coordinator at savingdoggies@yahoo.com for an application. Bald is Beautiful is a group of foster homes across the country with no specific shelter. We do not have a specific shelter for folks to visit. ********************************************************** Are you aware that dogs do best when they aren't alone? Dogs are pack animals and really do best with another dog around while their pack leaders are at work or out of the home. We strongly suggest that folks have another dog for the new rescue to be a companion with. Senior or adult dogs make GREAT 2nd dogs. No chewing, usually potty trained and there is always an abundance of them. Have you considered adopting a senior? It's very rewarding and most senior small dogs live to be 13+ years old! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Please note: We do not adopt out young dogs to senior citizens but will be glad to take your application for a senior dog!
