Bella Chihuahua Mix Calgary, AB

Hi there, my name is Bella. I am about 11.5 years old and 7.7 lbs. My current owner is no longer able to care for me so I am looking for my new forever home. I am being surrendered with Chester, but we do not need to be adopted out together.

Bella is a very sweet little Chihuahua. When she's not napping, her tail wags constantly. Once settled in her foster home she has gained more self-confidence. Once her harness & leash is on her, she waits by the front door. If she becomes uncomfortable for any reason, she’ll sit at her foster mom’s feet and “ask” to be picked up. She loves to snuggle with her foster mom, and loves blankets. Bella can become protective of her human so she needs a confident owner that can let her be a dog and not a protector. She seems to have no interest in toys.

She can easily jump up and down from a couch. Usually pretty quiet, but barks at the neighbour across the driveway, and at a squirrel in the back yard. Loves basking in the sun on the deck. She was polite to a couple of other small dogs that she met on a walk, but didn’t seem to have much interest in them so she can go into an home where she is the only other dog or a home with another dog that is looking only for companionship.
