My story

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

Meet Belquees AKA Bella! This sweet two-year-old girl has been settling beautifully into her foster home after raising her four puppies, who have all been adopted. Bella was found with her little ones and brought to PACC, and now she’s learning how wonderful life in a loving home can be. She’s housetrained, uses a doggy door, and has been doing great with her foster family’s 9-year-old husky and three young grandchildren (ages 1, 4, and 5). Bella is gentle and patient with kids—she enjoys being petted and hugged and has shown no signs of aggression.

Bella’s personality is blossoming every day. She loves her daily walks—two a day!—and while she’s still mastering her leash skills, she’s come a long way. Bella enjoys toys (especially stuffed ones, though they don’t always survive her playtime) and loves being part of the household activity. Her activity level is moderate: she’s happy to play outside or nap quietly beside her dog buddy. She hasn’t been around cats, but she gets along well with other dogs and is content either with canine friends or as the only pup soaking up attention.

What Bella wants most is love and belonging. She’s learning that being close to people is a good thing—she’ll gently lick your hand and follow you from room to room just to be near you. With her affectionate, loyal nature and easygoing temperament, Bella would make a wonderful addition to almost any family. She’s ready to share her heart and settle into her forever home with someone who will include her in family life and show her the love she’s been waiting for.
