Story
Bella, 9 years old, was my moms dog up until her passing and we have been trying to keep her but due to her health needs and our work schedules its becoming extremely difficult to keep her. She is a bit fearful of new people which sometimes seems like aggression because she is a big dog but she is truly sweet once she gets comfortable. She also is very much an inside dog after she has done her business outside she will usually start walking us back home. She likes to lounge around underneath the people she loves all day and really only barks of something scares her Bella does have a persistent UTI that causes her to need to urinate frequently and we aren’t always home to take her outside. Knowing her breed we didn’t feel comfortable taking her to an animal shelter, we just want her to be somewhere where she will be loved and treated kindly.

Story
A little bit about Lola…We found her in our neighborhood and decided to take her in until we found her owner. Eventually we found the owner but they didn’t want her so we kept her as she was a good companion to our other beagle Lucky. In the past year we’ve gone back and forth about rehoming her, and now that I’m pregnant and due in April we’re considering it again. Two dogs and a newborn would be a lot for us and she requires more attention than Lucky. Lola loves to cuddle and play fetch. She enjoys walks and ‘hunting’ squirrels and cats lol. You would know she has a scent because she sniffs vigorously and makes this barking/squealing noise. It’s cute and funny. She is very food motivated which makes her easy to train, and she loves long chew bones and toys. She just got her teeth cleaned, is all caught up on shots and in perfect health besides her chubbiness.
