Bella -gem!'s Story

Meet wonderful Bella!<br/>Meet wonderful Bella! This beautiful, young, sweet and active girl had been picked up as a stray, extremely thin and suffering from a painful ear infection. <br/>She is now happily living in a great foster home with Rich, and he reports that she is a great girl, very happy to be in a home. Sweet, responsive, housebroken and lovable, Bella will make a great companion for someone. She bonds quickly to her person and loves being a stage 5 clinger but also gives space and quiet time. Bella is a little brown and white velvet cow who would love nothing more than a pasture to call her own, no matter how many times we tell her it’s called a yard :) She would be happy to provide her services to keep your yard squirrel free in exchange for lots of fun playtime chasing after balls/toys with you. She has great energy to match an active person that enjoys long walks before retiring to the couch for quality time with her favorite person (you!)
