DESCRIPTION
Please meet Bella, formerly known as Petronella from Chicago, animal Care and Control. Bella’s journey to our organization started out uncertain. An animal lover was alerted to a sweet dog that had wandered onto somebody’s porch and refused to leave. She was picked up and brought to the local shelter, where she spent eight weeks waiting for someone to notice her. Eight weeks waiting for someone to invite her into their family. Well, that never happened, so we invited her into our organization with the hopes of having a broader reach in finding this sweet senior a home.
Bella is 9 1/2 year-old gal with a lot of pep in her step and a lot of life left to live! Bella is profoundly housebroken, walks very nicely on a leash, loves to sleep, in fact that’s what she does 85% of the day! She’s kind and gentle only wanting to please her people. All she asks for is a comfortable dog bed or two and a couple of meals a day!
Bella is fully vetted, micro chipped and comes with a plethora of supplies.
Her adoption fee is generously sponsored by a private donor!
