Bella's Story

Hi, I'm Bella - a 69-pound Terrier mix with a gentle soul who's still learning to feel safe and comfortable in new places. <br/><br/>I can be a bit anxious and scared right now, especially with fast movements or loud noises, so I need someone who will take things slow with me. When you get down on my level and let me come to you, that's when I start to feel most at ease. <br/><br/>I do know my name and will come when called, especially if I've wandered off to explore - I love taking in all the new sights and smells around me. I might seem a little independent at first, but that's just because I'm still on edge and figuring out my surroundings. Talk to me in a soft, sweet voice (baby talk works wonders!), and you'll see my tail start to wag. <br/><br/>Once I have the chance to truly settle in, my sweet and affectionate side will shine through. I really do want to open up and show my true personality - I just need patience, kindness, and a calm environment to get there. I'm well-mannered and gentle, and I promise that with a little time and trust, I'll blossom into a loyal, loving companion. <br/><br/>For now, I'm happiest quietly sniffing around and observing, but one day soon, I'll be right by your side, ready to share my love and gratitude for giving me the chance to feel safe and cared for.

Humane Society of The Black Hills's Adoption Policy
The adoption process may take up to one hour to complete but we’ll keep it as simple and streamlined as possible. Here are the steps when you’re considering adopting a pet: - Visit our website to see available animals or see them on-site during regular hours, seven days a week. - When you find a dog, cat or small animal you would like to spend more time with, simply call the Humane Society of the Black Hills at (605) 394-4170 for an appointment. - Occasionally, our team is able to accommodate walk-ins, but as we cannot guarantee them, it is best to call for an appointment. -During your scheduled appointment, an adoption advisor will review the animal's history with you and bring the animal to meet you for an initial visit. - A second appointment may be made for you for a variety of reasons (Ex. You have a dog at home you'd like to bring in to meet the pet next). -Once you have met a pet that you think is your perfect match and you have been approved to adopt, your adoption advisor will take you through the adoption process, and you can take your new family member home!
