My name is Bella!

I adopted Bella a little over 5 years ago through a coworker (C). She had been left with C by 2 men under the guise of short-term care. After being at C’s house, it became clear Bella had been abused. The two men never came back for her, and when C could no longer care for her, I adopted her.
Since then Bella’s become a well-adjusted, happy dog who is creeping into senior status. Bella has some separation anxiety, is initially nervous around men, dislikes thunder and other loud noises, and doesn’t like being left alone for long periods. She LOVES visiting my in-law’s ranch, walks, and snuggles, and is most content simply sharing space with her pack. She’s great with dogs and kids, but unfortunately, we have not been able to care for her adequately due to financial struggles (I’m 8 mos pregnant with 2 other young kids).
The best home for her would be somewhere with room to run, a cozy corner for her to claim, and lots of love and consistency. We have more to tell if you’re interested!
