BELLA - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / SHEPHERD / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 600. Prepare to be charmed by Bella, an incredibly loyal, cuddly, and energetic puppy eagerly searching for her forever family! This sweet girl forms deep bonds quickly, showering her caregivers with affection and making every moment special. Bella is a smart cookie, highly food-motivated, which makes training a joy! She's already mastered potty training, a huge head start for any new family. While she's a pro at crate time overnight (approximately 7 hours!), Bella is working on her separation anxiety. Therefore, a home where she won't be crated for more than 90 minutes during the day would be ideal, allowing her to truly thrive. Bella loves her creature comforts, often found snuggled on her dog bed with a favorite toy, always close by for all the family action. She's a social butterfly, comfortable around men, women, and children aged 5 and up, ready to be a loving addition to your diverse household. She’s even had exposure to barn cats, and with patient introductions, she’s learning to manage her playful chasing instincts. Bella will flourish in a home that appreciates her need for proximity and is dedicated to continuing her gentle training. If you're ready for a devoted, energetic, and endlessly affectionate companion, Bella can't wait to meet you and become your new best friend! Bella is from a local impound.
