Breed
Shepherd, German / American Blue Heeler

Female
Age
3 Years and 8 Months old
Poor Bella was seen being dumped by her owner on a commercial street where big rigs constantly are passing through. It took a few days for us to build her trust to bring her to safety in our yard.
Full of ticks and fleas we were able to clean her and give her love and attention which by the looks of it she never had love since she had the collar marks embedded into her fur where she had been tied up :(
Bella loves toys and gets the zoomies when excited. She loves to run so preferably go to someone with a big yard or an active person.
She is always high alert so she is always taking care of the house. She is very loyal to her person and shows how grateful she is to her foster family.
She has her own personality and just wants love attention and she is ready to be spoiled by her forever family.
she will need a 6 foot fence
she does get along with dogs but gets jealous about her person
no cats
loves to Play in kiddie pool
*walks on leash ok but still learning not to pull
Bella Marie deserves a real home and will be your most loyal buddy ever!!! Love me back and that is a recipe for an AMAZING LIFE!!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
