About Bella of the Ball

Hi there everyone! Thank you clicking on my picture, I just knew my angelic hazel brown eyes would draw you in and work like a charm! Since you're already here, you may as well stay and read on - there's a ton of good stuff going on 'behind these hazel' eyes that I am pup-positive will make me stand out as the perfect addition to your family! First things first - I am a female hound mix who is 6 months young, weighing in at 25lbs. Most of the time, I am happy go lucky, laid-back and chill. I shouldn't brag but.. I have been told that my most amazing quality is that I give the sweetest cuddles, and snuggles around. Laying on you while we relax is my idea of perfection. When it's time to play though, I get bursts of energy which I am grateful for because it helps me keep up with all of my foster siblings - dogs, cats, AND goats - oh my! I am young but I've already learned SO many things in such a short time! I give top-rate puppy kisses, can sit like a boss and I haven't been afraid of anything! Well, except for maybe people wearing hats but that was only the one time. I have been wonderful with children I've met, and while I get along nicely with all the pets here, I'd do well in a home that has animals with confident, calm temperaments who will help me learn to respect boundaries and let me know when to leave them alone. As they say, great things take time and I am no exception. Some of the things I'm currently working on with my foster family including but not limited to: potty training (I'm doing well but still using puppy pads in a clutch), crate training (not a huge fan), walking on a leash, not jumping or barking (I don't do either of those things much, only a lil bit), here, stay, and get down. I must admit I do have a fascination with the ankles of my friends if they are running by me, both human and non-human. What can I say? Hounds like me are bred to hunt so I have an innate tendency to nip at them. I listen well and am motivated to practice my manners with treats, but love and affection given by my family when I'm doing well works best. #workinprogress When I'm not busy learning new things, I try to live my best life. My favorite things to do are sleeping, running free in the backyard, playing with my foster kids, playing with my foster siblings, fetch and I absolutely love my dog toys. So, basically- I am quite the catch! What are you waiting for?! I'd love nothing more than to find my forever home with you once and for all finally become - the Bella of the ball! Bella of the Ball is up-to-date on her shots and has been spayed. Bella of the Ball is currently being fostered in Mechanicsville, VA.
