Bella Shepherd Mix Elkhart , IN

Bella is a beautiful shepherd/ collie mix. She is approximately 4 years old and weighs around 45#. Bella was dumped on a rural road and a wonderful family caught her in their garage after neighbors saw her for a few days on their cameras.

Bella is the sweetest girl!! She likes playing with other dogs and has loved my older boys who are 12 and 15. She likes to be loved on and likes to give lots of kisses if you let her. She has been kenneled and is crate trained. She seems very smart and has picked up on our routines very quickly. She goes back into her kennel on command, however, she does wait patiently for a treat for being such a good girl. Bella does need a secure fenced yard. We have been working with her on not jumping on you when she greets you, as she likes to jump up and say hi, and she has gotten much better. She is very content in her kennel but looks forward to getting outside and of course getting some lovins!! Bella has not been tested with cats, but we can do that if needed.

Bella is a smart dog who would love a family of her own. We do have Bella on a joint supplement as she sometimes gets stiff after laying down. Our vet felt she had moderate hip displaysia aftet viewing her xrays and would definetly benefit from taking a joint supplement daily.
