Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bella is a one and a half year old Belgian Malinois cross weighing approximately 40 lbs. She was abandoned and scared living on a derelict old couch on the street – far too young to have to fend for herself, but she did. Bella is very smart, and smart enough sadly to know not to rush up to strangers, who likely were not always kind. In general she takes her time to assess without a great amount of confidence, but does recover to engage.
Bella has good skills with other dogs and might enjoy a home with another dog. When tested with cats, she was nervous but kind and patient allowing them to assess her. Bella’s brain and young age mean she’d love a home that would enrich her through both mental and physical exercise, including playtime. She’s a joy to watch playing with other dogs, bowing down from her long legs. We think Bella would like a home with a yard.
Bella is healthy, spayed and vaccinated. She is currently at the SPCA PV sanctuary in Mexico, and will be able to fly to Vancouver, Calgary or Edmonton (possibly also Vancouver island). If you think you might be the lucky home for her, and have a real couch that she might enjoy, write us at pvcaadoptions@gmail.com and tell us a little about yourself, or go direct to our application: https://forms.office.com/r/b1Fkq3u4zw

We screen all applications and in most cases require a home check prior to placement. An approved adoption application must be on file before meetings are set up, as our dogs are in foster homes. We charge a $550 USD adoption fee. We routinely follow up with a visit or at least a phone call after placement. We solicit follow up photos and publish adoptions in our weekly newsletter.
