BELLA BEE - TERRIER / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (long coat). Adoption Fee: 495.00. Meet Bella Bee — a 5 year old, 5 lb Terrier girl with the softest heart, the cutest quirks, and a whole vocabulary of squeaks, chirps, and tiny whistles! Quick Facts: Name: Bella Bee Breed: Terrier Mix Age: 5 years old Weight: 5 lbs. House-Trained: No, working on it! Crate-Trained: No, she’s scared of the crate Good with Dogs: Yes (would ideally have a small doggie sibling to play and cuddle with!) Good with Cats: Yes Good with Kids: No, best in a calmer, adult-only home Energy Level: Playful and Cuddly Fence Required: Yes About Bella Bee's Breed: Our best guess is that Bella is a Terrier mixed breed. Long haired terriers, like Bella, are known for their spunky charm, bright personalities, and expressive little faces — but they also come with coats that need regular brushing to keep them soft, tangle free, and comfortable. These terriers are often affectionate, alert, and deeply connected to their people, balancing playful bursts of energy with plenty of cuddle time. Their ideal home is one that can offer consistent grooming, gentle structure, and lots of companionship. Because they bond closely and can be sensitive, they thrive with someone who’s home often and enjoys including them in daily life. A calm environment, patient introductions, and another friendly dog can help them feel secure and confident. With the right care and attention, long haired terriers become incredibly loving, loyal little companions who brighten every corner of the home. What to Love about Bella Bee: Bella is a gentle, nervous little soul who bravely faces the world one small step at a time. She bonds deeply, loves being near her person, and will happily curl up on your lap or snuggle with another small dog. She’ll even greet you with full enthusiasm if you’ve only been gone for two minutes — her love is that big! Bella is playful but submissive, enjoys the company of other small, friendly dogs, and doesn’t mind cats at all (especially if they’ll nap with her). She’s working on her potty training and doing great, and while she’s scared of the crate, she can relax safely in a separate space when you’re out. She’s not destructive and has perfect little manners. Bella is also a surprisingly good jumper — though she’ll only hop onto furniture when she thinks you’re not watching, which is one of her funniest quirks! To help her with her potty training, a fenced in yard is necessary so she can calmly and safely do her business outside. Because she’s tiny, dainty, and easily startled, Bella would do best in an adult only home with a calm environment. She’d love someone who’s home most of the time and another small dog to play with and cuddle. She enjoys neighborhood walks, regular brushing, soft beds, wet food, chewy treats, and being loved at her own gentle pace. Bella is a delicate, affectionate little cuddle bug who just needs patience, kindness, and a quiet home to blossom into the joyful, loving companion she’s meant to be!
