Story
Bella is a 7 year old spayed English Stafford Terrier. She is housetrained and is a wonderful companion. Bella has the stamina to enjoy a long hike or walk, but only requires a few short walks a day. She can be incredibly fast! When she needs to get energy out she relies on her zoomies, where she will run at top speed for about 3 minutes, and then she is tired out and content. She loves to be around people and is a low maintenance dog who can curl up on a dog bed for hours on end. She can be a bit nervous and timid in certain situations. While fetch is not her thing, she loves to play with dog bones or dog toys. She is a lover and gives an inordinate amount of licks. Bella successfully finished a board and train program in 2021. She is a smart dog and has mastered her basic skills. Bella sometimes spends time at doggie daycare, where she is great with other dogs and is a favorite of the staff. Bella has been part of a loving family and is well cared for and up to date on her vetting. She is not a barker, but will bark if someone is at the door or if she perceives a threat. Bella can be a bit protective. Her family is expanding and while she is very good with their children, the little ones have been making her nervous and her family has realized that she would do much better in a different environment, in a quieter home. Her ideal home would have a fenced yard for her to roam in and lie in the sun. Please email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@Yahoo.cim( for more information or an application. Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.) PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING US! We are NOT a shelter: All of our dogs live in private homes with foster families. Come and meet the Almost Home dogs and their fosters at our Meet & Greet events, where you can learn more about our wonderful dogs from the people who live with them, find out which dogs are on their way and when they’ll arrive, and fill out an application to adopt or foster. We cannot adopt to homes where electric-shock fencing systems or training collars are used. For more information on the dangers of electric-shock collars, please visit banshockcollars.ca/studies.php and http://www.hollysden.com/say_no_to_shock.htm (scroll down and click on the "Invisible Fencing Systems" link). We do not have an online adoption application; to request an application, e-mail us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com. To speed e-mail processing time, be sure to note the name of the dog you are inquiring about in the Subject line. For Meet & Greet times and locations, visit our home page, where you also will find information on our adoption process and fees. FOSTER FAMILIES ARE LIFESAVERS!!

Remember, by fostering a dog, you save TWO lives — that of your foster dog, and that of the dog who takes his place in the shelter! Come to a Meet & Greet and find out if fostering is for you — there's no reward quite like the feeling that you've saved a life ... or two!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 30, 2024, 9:34 pm
