Homed

Homing Requirements: Bella needs a fun family to offer her an enriched life and have patience whilst she adjusts to a whole new life. She needs a secure garden and exit management. Not to be crated; she has the tee shirt on that one!

Her Story: Bella was owned by a young man from a puppy and he introduced Coco, a pup, to her in Dec 10 when she was 3 years old. They have had a good relationship together. They spent a lot of time crated and upon moving house they began to get out of a poorly fenced garden. The girlfriend, now pregnant, didn't want them back the second time the dog warden knocked on the door. The owner was heartbroken to see them go into rescue. We neutered them both and have since homed Coco. Bella is fostered in Guildford, Surrey

Advert: Bella is a sweet girl who went from being an only fluent dog to accepting and raising a puppy as her own. They were close friends. Bella now needs a confident home to support her in life without Coco. Bella was always on extender leads outside and meets dogs well. Housetrained; could do with basic training. Her fosterers are delighting in her and enjoying her energy and affectionate nature. Travels well in the car especially if a front passenger!

Bella is a pied white Staffie with a truly devotional temperament, 4 years young. She is a good weight and the loving licky Staffie who will shine given a decent life with care, good food and a routine that meets her needs. She thrives on human companionship and had only 1 owner all her life before foster care; she is looking for her second chance!

Chinquest and I had a lovely walk with this pair today. Bella is the calmer one, quietly getting on with her own walk, although very pleased to see her friend Coco.

Had a stroll with the lovely Bella yesterday and what a good girl she is. Walks along concentrating on being out of the kennels and she was walked with Coco and was very attentive as to where Coco was doing and where she was going. Think maybe she is Coco's mum. Lovely to see a Staffie wagging her tail with enthusiam and she is full of fun. Lovely girl who was fitted with a warm coat before I left the kennels so hopefully she will be cosy in this cold weather but a home would be cosier Laugh

I have a slight cold so was looking for dogs to walk that would be gentle with me today. Bella definately fitted the bill. Always pleased to be reunited for a walk with her bestest friend Coco we had a lovely stroll this morning.

Walked Bella today, she's very good at putting her lead on for her walk, the surroundings didn't bother her one bit. Oh apart from a cheeky sausage as a small brib. Bella did walk along side Coco but she let's her do her thing while she enjoys her walk, I really like her markings, being the one large brown spot on her back, she's lovely, the only problem with her is she was rolling all over the floor playing around in the field, problem is she's no longer white. After getting her back she was great sat there while she got, brushed. What a great walking companion.

After Bella did such a wonderful job of modelling on Saturday, yesterday she felt the need to rough it a bit and roll in the muddy grass Embarassed

I believe it was Bella's first walk without her mate Coco, who has gone into a home.

She was not fazed at all and enjoyed a walk on the flexi lead.

She is an easy dog, doesn't pull, doesn't really jump up.. just very chilled.

here are a few pics of the pretty girl. Although not so pretty after she decided to roll in the mud! Laughing

Bella is such a sweet girl - she was the perfect second dog for Amy, our new walker to take charge of - she walked well with Bruno, enjoying the doggie & human company - we walked her into the village and enjoyed cooling off in the stream.....I understand she completely lay down in it Wink

Another easy girl who will be spending Easter in kennels when it would be lovely to see her in a new home sad11
