She has this driven, curious personality and absolutely wants a job — it’s how her brain works. But she’s also such a lovebug. She naps hard, cuddles harder, and gives that kind of loyalty that working breeds are famous for. She’s not a beginner dog, but with the right person, she’s going to be exceptional.”<br/>Bella Wella is ready for her forever, and she’s hoping it includes adventure, structure, and love — oh, and a couch to snore on afterward.<br/><br/>Currently fostered in NYC
