More about Bella

Meet our beautiful Bella!

Bella is a sweet young girl who has had a rough start to life. She was found straying along with a littermate and as a result we have no information about her prior history. She is a worried young lady with a sensitive soul, under-socialised and initially nervous of new things. She warms up quite quickly to people and enjoys a calm hands on fuss, but is taking a little longer to be comfortable around other dogs.

Bella has been growing in confidence daily, and there is no reason she shouldn't continue to flourish in her new home once settled in. New owners will need plenty of patience and love, which she will no doubt repay 100 times over.

She still has some growing to do, emotionally as well as physically, but with the right home and continued guidance, training and support she will mature into the well-balanced, sociable young lady we know she can be.

Bella is looking for a home with owners that have had some experience around a nervous or worried dog, preferably a large breed. She could potentially live with very sensible teenagers that can read her body language and help advocate for her, and ideally will need multiple carers to help with her training and management and provide her with companionship. Bella would prefer to live in an area with accessible quiet walking routes, whilst her socialisation continues. Due to her worried nature she would like to have a garden of her own, so she can become acquainted with the big wide world gradually and at her own pace without pressure.

Overall, with the right care, affection and time this stunningly beautiful girl should continue to grow in confidence, and once she is settled in her new home and bonded, will fill your life and your home with laughter and joy.
