Bella is a female Lab/bulldog mix that was turned in to the shelter by her owner, along with her companion, Kacie. Bella is frightened by the shelter environment and is a bit slow to accept strangers, but in a home environment, according to her owner, she is "very very smart, protective, opens doors, does not bite, and likes to cuddle". Bella is about 1-1/2 years of age, and has been around cats, children, and other dogs with no noted problems. Bella and Kacie like to chase a ball, and Kacie will always bring the ball back and place it at your feet, while Bella just runs along with her for the exercise. Once this girl warms up to you, she is a real sweetheart, one that loves affection and treats. Since they were surrendered by their owner, there is no stray hold on either of them. They both need new homes as soon as possible. The shelter is very over-crowded and both of these sweethearts are in danger.
