Meet Bella, a vibrant soul, bursting with energy and affection. She weighs 60 pounds and likes car rides, toys, and water. Having lived outdoors, she`s energetic and loves to play, but she will need some training to polish her manners. Her eagerness to get to know you will cause her to jump up to get close. House training and leash walking are other areas where she needs help. Bella is protective of her home and family, making her a great protector. Known for her playful antics, Bella is a true social butterfly, mingling enthusiastically with dogs and showing a robust play style. She can be a bit much for other dogs at the dog park. She`s equally friendly with cats and children, though her spirited interactions are best suited for those who appreciate a bit of rough-and-tumble fun. Bella`s boundless energy and loving nature make her an ideal companion for active families or individuals. She was given up because her family downsized and didn`t have enough space for her. Adopt Bella and embrace a life filled with joy and playful adventures! (tw 1/31/2026)
