BELLA ROSE - POODLE (MINIATURE) / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed. Est DOB: 1/24/24 Weight: 11lbs Bella Rose is the perfect pint-sized companion with a heart full of love. Bella came into rescue with her puppies, while the transition was scary at first, Bella has truly blossomed during her nearly three weeks in foster care and is showing everyone what a sweet, loving little girl she is. When Bella first arrived, she was unsure of her new surroundings and needed a few days to decompress but was soon interacting with people and other pets. New people can still make her a little nervous at first, but her curiosity and loving nature quickly win out and within a few minutes she moves in for pets and affection. Bella loves attention and is happiest when she's close to her people. Whether she's soaking up cuddles, accepting treats for a job well done, or perfecting her lap dog skills, she wants to be part of the family. She has an adorable habit of hopping into your lap, turning around, and sitting back against you like a small child settling into their favorite chair. It's impossible not to smile when she does it! She's food-motivated, eager to bond with those she trusts, and has a medium energy level. Bella tends to take her cues from the activity around her, happily joining in when it's playtime and settling down when it's time to relax. She sleeps quietly in her kennel at night and is comfortable being crated when her foster family is away. Like many dogs who have experienced change, Bella still has a few things she's working on. Leashes can be a little scary, and car rides make her nervous, but she's making steady progress with gentle encouragement and patience. She is occasionally curious about toys, though she hasn't quite figured out how to play with them yet. We think she's saving that discovery for her future family to enjoy. Bella currently lives in a foster home with several other small dogs and enjoys their company. She seems to do well with most dogs and would likely thrive in a home with another friendly canine companion to help her continue building confidence. She has done well with children as young as 9 years old, though she'll appreciate a family willing to give her a little time to settle in and feel secure. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will happily curl up in your lap, lean back against you for snuggles, and remind you every day how rewarding a second chance can be, Bella Rose may be the perfect addition to your family.
