About this Dog
Meet Bella! Bella is such an intelligent dog. She was already potty trained when she come to our home and will bark at you to signal she needs outside. Under the word âplayâ in the dictionary is a picture of Bella! Since working with this high energy girl, boy, does she love her walks. She rarely pulls during our walks now. If she does, I change direction immediately and that solves that. She loves fetch and tug of war- which she generally wins! Haha- I highly recommend someone that is active and loves to walk or run. She is great with people and kids and wants to play. We are currently working on no jumping with much improvement and leave it command. She gets very excited when passing strange dogs but I have no doubt with patience and consistency she will make it through this phase! My direction to her when we encounter other dogs is âleave itâ and she is almost 100% now. She is treat- driven so that is a huge plus. When she hears me say âgood girlâ that now has become her signal sit and get a treat while we walk. Haha! She has also learned that she must sit at the door and wait for my okay command to go out the door. I use the command all done and sign language to signal that I am finished playing at the moment which she has adapted very well to this command. She will use the crate but much prefers cuddling up with me. Her downfall is that she cannot distinguish between her toys and my house slippers! Because of her energy and strength, I could see her with older children, 10+ and other dogs with her energy level to play with, in my humble opinion.
Contribute to BELLA's Stash!

100% of BELLA's balance will be sent to whoever adopts BELLA.
Adopt BELLA and Receive BELLA's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, BELLA's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is BELLA's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the BELLA, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming BELLA's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and BELLA was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, BELLA’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the BELLA’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, BELLA’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
