My story

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

In Italian, “tutta bella” means “everything beautiful; “la bella principessa” means “the beautiful princess,” and “bellisimo cano” means “really beautiful dog.” We think that any of these Italian phrases could be the origin of our girl Bella’s name!

Sweet and gorgeous Bella recently had the opportunity to enjoy a two-night Pawjama Party, where her new friends described her as a very well-behaved girl who is friendly, affectionate and calm. She did well when left alone and loved ALL TOYS!

In another short-term home she was reportedly good with young children, well- behaved when left home alone, and house trained. She was described as an affectionate couch potato who loved toys.

Bella’s volunteer friends also have many complimentary things to share:

“Bella is friendly and easy to leash up in her kennel. We went over to a play yard and as soon as her kennelmate joined her, she ran excitedly around the yard with him. She is super goofy, fun and playful! She loves to play with her kennelmate and she really wanted me to play with her as well! She came up to me for snuggles and let me pet her all over. She`s an independent kind of gal who checks in for cuddles but isn’t too needy, and she would probably do great with another fun-loving energetic dog to play with!”

Bella shares her kennel politely with another PACC pup and has been independent when meeting other dogs in playgroup. She’d like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure a good fit.

If you’re looking for a pup to make your home a more beautiful place, come meet Bella today!
