My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

In November 2020, Real Time Rescue was contacted by Banning Veterinary Hospital in the Hi-Desert area. They explained that an elderly woman had called asking about euthanizing her two dogs, who were under three years old and healthy. She let them know that the reason for her call was she could no longer care for them and didn’t know what to do. Instead of scheduling an appointment, they gave them our number. Their daughter reached out to explain that she had just moved back to help her parents- her father had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s 6mos earlier and recently her mother with fibromyalgia. All three were surviving on very limited funds and the dogs, Bella & Buddy, spent their lives outside. She further explained that when her mother called a local shelter and asked what would happen to them if they turned them in, she was told if not adopted quickly they would be euthanized due to an already over crowded shelter. Her next call was Banning Vet, feeling that euthanizing them there would be the better option over a shelter taking care of it. This is a woman who did really want what was best for her dogs but didn’t have any idea how to help them with the resources provided to her. RTR let the family know we could help, but we’d have to find fosters first… and thanks to the rescue gods, we did!

Bella is around 3 years old. Both she and her brother Buddy went directly to one of our trusted vets in Orange County and were given a clean bill of health and vaccinated. Both have been in foster homes since, decompressing and learning the ropes on how to live indoors.

We hear Bella is a smart, loving lady, now fully potty and crate trained and ready to find her forever match! She’s a multi-talented kinda dog- both an expert cuddler and great hiker. Eager to please, she loves hanging with her people ,whatever they are up to!
