Bella Vida

My story

Breed: Boxer / American Bulldog? maybe? Size: Large; currently 70+ lbs Estimated Birthday: 3/2/2020 House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes, and kennels on command! Kid-Friendly: Needs a home with kids over 12 years --============================== Bella Vida is looking for her perfect family! She is a 3 or 4 year old Bulldog mix weighing about 85-90 lbs. This silly girl ate a sock and her previous owner could not afford the surgery. C2CND stepped in and rescued her. She’s a high energy dog who would do best with a fence and a privacy fence would be even better. She will bark when she needs to go outside. Bella is crate and potty trained. She is a very affectionate dog once she warms up to you and really needs a patient, assertive owner who will work with her. She also needs an active family who exercises her frequently. Her foster notices that Bella’s behavior is heavily influenced by the amount of exercise/activity she receives and her anxiety levels. Bella would fetch a ball for hours if you let her. She does go on walks but sometimes gets distracted. She loves to snuggle and be near her human. She also likes to chew on bones (Benebones seems to be her favorite). Her foster says Bella is a dominant personality who is dog selective and dog aggressive. Bella is still working on her leash skills, while she does well on the leash most of the time, she can be easily distracted. Slow introductions are best. Bella would fit best with a family with teenagers or no young kids and as the only dog.
