Bella - Second chance adoption

‘Bella’ the Hound, soft natured lass, loves cuddles on the sofa, the company of the other resident dogs & cats & her walks. 5yr old stunner © My personality in my own words I’m told that you would be very fortunate to have me because I’m what you call ‘an all rounder’. It’s effortless to be me. I didn’t know I was so wonderful as no-one had ever told me that before though leesa says my qualities are exactly what most of you are looking for. I currently relish the company of people whatever their sex enjoying the comforts & luxuries of home life. I’m friendly with strangers greeting them like we’re old buddies & I’m amazing with cats (as seen). I also savour the company of children (currently residing with a 15yr old) & other dogs. ‘Roma’ recently adopted was my best friend. I really don’t care what size, sex, breed or disposition the animal is - I’m just an impossibly friendly gal. Cuddles on the sofa & spooning are my favourite things. I’m that perfect age combining maturity with a zest for life. Being fit and active as well as a home bird is a charming juxtaposition. I treasure my walks & outdoor adventures & take to the leash with no problems. I don’t have any issues around food or aggressioncertainly I’ve never shown a glimpse of any & have lived indoors for 3years since being rescued. Have you noticed my hang-dog expression? It’s so typical of my DNA. Of course I’ll miss my ‘home’ though will adapt because you’ll be my new paradise & hug me a lot. Rescuers are meant to help more dogs not keep the ones that they have rescued so leesa the owner of ‘Break the chains for dogs BG/UK’ has agreed to help me find my permanent emerald city. My history. As I didn’t have someone like you to cherish me there isn’t a great deal to say I was skinny when I was found because I’d been neglected & then abandoned. I was just thrown away like an empty crisp packet. They think I was a failed hunting dog. It’s likely though I’m a mix of breeds & it’s also possible that I just wasn’t wanted because I’m a dog. That’s reason enough to some people. It’s not my fault that I wasn’t any good at the job man intended for me & that I ended up deserted on a lonely track. They certainly didn’t want to see me curled up y the fire with a cat. Thank god I was found. The rescuer knows a lady that leesa is close to and they’ve requested the charities support to find a suitable home for me. Leesa has too many to help & home already including her own though kindly said ‘yes’ so I’ll patiently wait for the next part of my journey.
