Bella's Story

Hi, hi, oh hi! My name is Bella and I am so happy to meet you. I am a six year old girl that weighs over eighty pounds. They think I am a German shepherd mix. I came to the rescue after my family was moving and they dropped me off at a city shelter where I could die. Lucky for me the rescue came and took me out of there. So I am looking for a safe, new home.<br/><br/>I am a fun, water loving girl. I enjoy my people, cuddles and car rides. I have been around cats and will play with other dogs but am best suited as an only dog or have a male furry friend. I know how to use a doggie dog, am house trained and know my basic manners. I like to stay close to my people. Everyone has faults and mine is high value resource guarding. I absolutely think Kleenex and treats are very valuable and don’t want to give them up or share them. I have been working on it with a trainer and she can help you and me both. For those reasons I think small children are not a good match for my new home. I do enjoy activity like walking or playing ball but with my size I admit my endurance is low. I am curious and sometimes get distracted exploring new things. You know, I guess you could say I like to check out my surroundings.<br/>I have been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and am current on my heartworm/flea & tick preventatives. My adoption fee is 150.00. The first step in adopting me is to complete an application for me, Bella at dogsasfamily.org. You and me, we could be true friends and I would love you no matter what. Can you love me that much?

Dogs As Family, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

All of our kids are in foster homes where they are treated as family with enormous amounts of love and top quality medical attention to insure they are in good health. Each kid is spayed or neutered, up to date on all shots and tested for heartworm, Lyme and Ehrlichia prior to being placed in their forever home. Each of our kids are loved for who they are, we evaluate for personality and temperament so we can place them with their new families. When time allows, we house-train and begin teaching basic obedience. Many of our dogs participate in the Dogs of Lexington program allowing them behavioral fine-tuning during the inmate training program. Our adoption process begins with submitting an adoption application through our website at http://www.dogsasfamily.com/forms/ We do not ship furry family members. We can do out of state adoptions if you are able to travel to Oklahoma City to meet with
