About This Dog

Bella's ideal home

Bella is a 5-year-old Chihuahua x Poodle looking for a calm, stable environment where she can feel secure and let her affectionate side shine! She will need to live in a multi-person household where someone is around most of the time, as she finds being left alone very stressful and needs consistent companionship to feel settled. A home with a private garden, ideally with a grassy area, is important for her toileting and for providing a quiet retreat if the outside world feels overwhelming. Bella would suit a household with older children aged 14 and above who can respect her sensitive nature, and while she may be able to build friendships with dogs of a similar size and temperament, she would much prefer to be the only pet in the home so she can soak up all the attention! Her new family should be patient and willing to support her with gentle reassurance, particularly with things like harnesses, car journeys, and building her confidence at her own pace.

Could you be Bella's perfect match?

Bella offers an incredibly loving and devoted companionship. She is a deeply affectionate little dog who adores cuddles and close contact, often following her people from room to room and curling up beside them whenever she can. Bella has a playful side too, enjoying short bursts of fun with her toys, especially her beloved octopus which she carries around for comfort. She loves a game of fetch - though sometimes she needs help knowing when to stop! She’s a clever girl who already knows commands like sit, paw and high five, and she’s even been trained to ring a bell when she needs the toilet. Bella is happiest when she’s part of everyday life, whether that’s relaxing on the windowsill watching the world go by, joining you for a gentle walk, or snuggling up in bed at the end of the day. For the right home, she will bring warmth, character and plenty of love!
