Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mark this moment- the serendipity of having seen this post on this day. Years from now, both you and I will remember this moment as one that changed our lives for the better... or maybe even saved them.
My name is Bella and I believe in the power of a dog's love. And if any dog has a heart that can move mountains, it's me.
My love is precious, not something to be taken for granted. It's something you have to earn- have a little patience, show me some gentleness and respect, and once I know I can trust you, I will be absolutely devoted to you.
When I find my person, I'm so relieved to be able to trust someone that I want to be as close to them as I can- I lean in beside them and melt into their arms. I want to fall asleep with my head on their chest and know I'm safe.
And when I wake up, I want to play! I love the great outdoors, running around with my friends, playing ball and just reveling in the unbridled joy dog life can bring.
The other thing is, even when I know you, I'm kind of sensitive about being handled and restrained when I don't know what's going on. It can make vetting a little tough, but as long as you're prepared and know where my boundaries are, we're all good.
I've waited here long enough to be chosen- to meet the person who will be my whole world. And I'll remember this day forever- the day you found me.
If interested, please fill out a preliminary at odas.org/canine and someone will contact you to schedule your visit.

To adopt an animal from Open Door Animal Sanctuary you must commit to provide the utmost care for our angels. We believe the perfect home is one with a lifetime commitment to the health and happiness of their adopted friend. Adequate shelter, good food, fresh water and regular veterinary care are necessities and we have one more key requirement - at least 100 kisses a day for the life of your new family member!
We screen potential adopters thoroughly before sending any our babies home. Every home goes through a homecheck and must be approved by our homecheck team before we allow our animals to be adopted. We work hard to know the personalities of our furry guests and to understand each of them so that we are prepared to help you find the best fit for your lifestyle. Our goal is to make the best match possible to ensure a happy lifetime in your home. If you're a kind and caring family looking for a pet, please come and visit us. We'll help you find the perfect match!
The adoptable pets listing here is only a partial one. It's tough to keep up pics and bios for the very large number of wonderful pets we have for you to choose. If you don't see what you're looking for or if you have a particular pet in mind, please give us a call. Just because you don't find it listed doesn't mean we don't have just the pet for you!
Our adoption area is generally a 100 mile radius of the St. Louis area. It is important for us to have the opportunity to assist people in their homes with their new pet if needed and even more critical that as a no-kill shelter, we can readily "retrieve" our friends if something happens in the future. Thanks for understanding.
Our adoption fee is $120. That includes all necessary shots up to the date of adoption, spaying/neutering, wormings, flea/tick preventative, and microchip. Our cats are tested for feline leukemia and FIV (feline aids). Dogs are tested for heartworms and receive heartworm preventatives. We provide our animals with lots of socialization with people and with each other. One word of warning - our babies are frequently spoiled by our animal-loving staff and volunteers. We try to make sure that we provide them with everything we can - but WE NEED YOU to provide a LOVING FUR-EVER HOME
