7/14 A very happy Bella arrived yesterday.  She is a beautiful mahogany-red female, with a bit of a snaggle tooth from an apparent injury to her mouth.  She has not been obedience trained, but I was able to teach her the Down command in 5 minutes (hot dogs are a great motivator!),  She does it every time I ask her to now.  She is housebroken and slept in her crate ( which, BTW, could fit a pony) with very little whining last night, and didn't make a peep this morning.  She merely greeted me by standing up and wagging her (butt) tail.  She is a little rough with the kitten and my small female poodle, who let her know it.  She is a bit fearful when they do.  She has not yet warmed up to the Dachshund, who has been anything but warm to her!  So far they merely co-exsist when together.  She is in No Way food or toy aggressive. Actually, I think her name describes her personality and temperament perfectly! More updates to follow as she settles in.

Bella is a gorgeous deep mahogany color.  She has a huge amount of energy and not a lot of manners.  She  is coming into rescue as she is spending too much time home alone and is not getting enough exercise or attention.  With a result she is very hyper.    Housebroken and crate trained.  She is used to a fenced in yard, loves other dogs although she can be a bit too much for some dogs.  She currently lives with small children and is good with them although she can occasionally knock little ones over in her excitement..

Bella needs a home where someone will be home more often with her and can provide her with plenty of exercise.  Watch for updates once we secure a foster home and get to know her better.
