My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE PROFILE
Bella is an absolutely stunning girl. She looks like Lassie but with shorter hair that is a variety of shades of red. She has a fluffy tail. She is about 12 months old and weighs about 40 lbs. She has a lean body and long legs but is definitely a medium sized dog. She is fantastic with all dogs of all sizes, cats, and people. She walks well on the leash and does well in the crate. She found herself at a high kill high volume shelter through no fault of her own.
She is currently still in Oklahoma where she was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. She has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take her in or she will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found.
Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays.
