My Tale

Bella. This loving sweet girl is due to be spayed and then will be ready for her forever home.

The vet thinks she’s still young but possibly a couple of years old. Her teeth are excellent and so it’s hard to tell 100%. She is definitely past the puppy stage and is fully grown and has a lovely temperament.

It seems that in her past she had an injury to one of her rear legs. It doesn’t hinder her enthusiasm for life and exploring and leaping about at all, except she’s not up to walking for hours or running for a distance.  She’s definitely not a working dog, she’s perfect for a home as a loveable family girl. She wants to be by your side but is also quite content to have a nap if you’ve got to go out for a few hours. If you work she won’t mind, so long as she’s had a wee walk in the morning and perhaps has some other doggie company during the day. She gets on well with most other dogs, can be a little wary at first introduction but after that is fine. However I feel she’s also do well if she’s the only dog in the family. She’s not terribly fond of cats but with the right introduction will suffer a confident cat that won’t run.  She’s an amazing family dog, has been great around our kids, and loves to snuggle them.  She’s not crate trained, preferring your bed or couch to recline on. We thought she’d prefer a bed of her own but I think she’s not used to that so she’d just love the luxury of being on a bed next to you.  As she’s food orientated she’s easily learning to sit and wait and her recall is quickly getting better and better.

She looks like she’s got a strong mix of Hunterway crossed with maybe Rottie but she’s not much of a barker and likes to do circles around you to ‘round you up when you’re walking. She loves the company of all her hooomans and love to be a part of someone’s family.

She’s due to have her op soon but I’m happy to have people meet her even if it means before she’s ready to go
