Pet of the Week BELLA
The WECHS hopes you can be a humane hero! Donate to help animals like Bella at https://windsorhumane.org/donatenow
Hiya, I’m Bella. I’m a 3-year old Rottweiler mix weighing 61lbs, and I really hope to find my new home real soon. You see, I had a family that really cared for me and loved me dearly. I spent my whole life with them, but then I ended up having some issues towards the young kiddos in the home and it started causing some problems. Mum felt it would be best to help me find a home without young kids, so I can feel like my best self and be a successful girl. I will need some work on basic training things, and an adopter that is understanding that I may need time and patience while re-adjusting to a new home. I am best suited in a home without children, and also, no cats as well.
