Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Vella! I am a 40lb freight train of affection! Since I am still young, I have lots of energy much of the time and want to play! Since I am a bull/terrier breed my playing can look a little rough to the uninitiated.... I need loving patience and correction for rough play. And please have a tall fence in your yard or I will jump right over it! My house mates need to be ok with my play style. I love to chase squirrels outside, so I would be very happy with large spaces (with trees!) to run in. I will play outside for hours if there are enough things to chase! I need things to chew on, so toys, toys, toys! Otherwise, I can be bored, whiny, and mischievous. I love other dogs but need someone my size to play with! No cats or small pets, please! I like to cuddle, am very affectionate, and am very playful, I also like to vocalize as though I'm talking to you....it sounds like a human toddler trying to speak/form words. I am extremely smart and of course, am potty trained! I will go in my crate (with gentle persuasion/assistance) for night-night and when mom/dad leave for work....but look out!...Lots of happy puppy slobber kisses when you come home! I haven't been around children yet, but small children might not work well just because of my size and energy. Do you have room in your home and heart for this big silly girl?
