She lived in an apartment setting where she didn't have enough outlets for her exercise and enrichment needs. Her previous adopters shared that she is a wonderful dog and that the return was not due to her behavior or temperament.<br/>Because of this, Bella would do best in a home that can provide her with regular exercise along with mentally stimulating enrichment while at home. Some great options include snuffle mats, treat-dispensing toys, stuffed toy bones with peanut butter or soft treats, puzzle feeders, and short training sessions. These help keep her mind busy, reduce boredom, and allow her to use her energy in a positive way. With the right balance, Bella truly shines and shows just how fun, affectionate, and engaging she is.<br/>A Few Things About Bella<br/> Friendly, outgoing, and loves people<br/> Happy wiggle butt with tons of personality<br/> Active and playful, loves to run and explore<br/> Enjoys walks, car rides, and adventures<br/> She's a spirited walker who thrives with a harness for smooth, happy outings.<br/> Smart and treat motivated, knows "paw"<br/> Loves belly rubs, cuddles, and being close to her people<br/> Thrives with regular exercise and mental enrichment when home alone<br/>Bella is ready for her next chapter with someone who will embrace her energy, enjoy her silly moments, and give her all the love she has to give right back.<br/> Come meet Bella at the Caroline County Humane Society<br/> 407 W.
