Character
“Everyone says she is wonderful little girl.”
That’s Bella, born 2023, 17kg, partially sighted and currently in private shelter in Serbia.
Bella is a beauty with her white fur and floppy honey-coloured ears. She is missing her left eye; nobody knows how she came to lose it, but she has had surgery to close it and has recovered well. Her right eye is absolutely fine. Bella is also neutered.
Bella is very good with people and children aged 8 plus. She hasn’t met toddlers so we don’t know how she feels about younger children. We do know she loves attention and will ask for a fuss.
Bella is a happy dog, with a normal energy level for her age. She can be excited when she meets people or dogs but calms down after she has said Hello. She has been good with all the dogs she has met so far. It is thought she is good with cats and should be cat tested again in a few weeks.
Bella lived on the streets for some time, so it’s unlikely she has ever lived in a home - but she would love to learn! She was clean when in the vet clinic had no accidents in her pen, the same in the shelter so far. Bella’s been very good and hasn’t chewed her bed or mattress and doesn’t seem to be a big barker. She was quiet while in the clinic but was interested in everything.
Bella is happy to wear a collar and harness. Going for walks would be a new experience for her so she will need further lead training. Being a street dog, she would need to work on her recall for some months in a secure environment if she was ever going to be allowed off lead.
Bella’s rescuer is hoping she will find a home with someone who understands rescue dogs. Someone who will give her time to settle into home life and provide training in the areas that she needs. She’s just a young girl, so has plenty of time to learn all about UK life.
