BELLA (COURTESY POST) - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). **This is a courtesy post. Bella is NOT a YCSPCA dog. All adoption interest will be forwarded to her caretaker.** Sweet, bubbly, loyal, and fun - Bella is the complete package! Bella is estimated to be around 6-7 years old and is a loving girl looking for her forever home. Bella is a total wiggle-butt that greets everyone she meets with a big smile and is a social butterfly who wants to be everyone's friend. She has an infectious, happy personality. Bella currently weighs about 70lbs, but would benefit from losing at least 10lbs. Who needs a weight loss buddy? Bella and her brother, Bitsy, were surrendered to a local dog boarding facility after their previous owner was no longer able to care for them and moved across the country. The staff at the facility love the two dogs, but know that they deserve more attention than they can get at the facility. Bitsy has been adopted, so now it's Bella's turn! Bella is the mellower of the two kiddos. While she loves to run and play, she is also a big couch potato who loves cuddles and getting attention from her people. She is a goofy girl who loves rolling in the grass and sunbathing. Bella knows her basic manners, but does need some reminders now and then. She is very food-motivated, which makes training a breeze. Bella has done well living with a small dog. She could also do well as a solo dog. Bella hasn't lived with cats before, but she may do well living with dog-savvy cats after a slow introduction and proper supervision. Bella would be a wonderful addition to a home with kids 12 years and older. Bella is housetrained, but may have some accidents while adjusting to a new environment and routine. Bella is spayed and up-to-date with her vaccines. Bella is such a wonderful girl who deserves a family for the holidays.
