Copper eyes lined with mascara , shining amidst the red markings of her face.. They steel the show and make her look so feminine, naughty and so attractive and yes, she truly deserves her name…Bella… Six year old Bella is with us as her  busy owner had no time for a pet anymore, I guess, mostly with a large one that is house trained and needs to be taken out for walks…We are told that  she was very friendly to strangers, loved to play with her four human children, enjoyed baths, had no handling issues and was very affectionate and active. She seems to have been well cared for , appearing healthy and perfectly groomed. Bella is a pleasure to be with. She is poised, calm although lively, walks beautifully on the leash, sits readily on command and takes treats very politely from my hand. She does give paw, right and left . She is a very good listener and absolutely wants to make her caretaker happy and proud of her. Bella comes immediately when called, sits  in front of me and poses her head in my lap for caresses. Their is such an aura around her that spells: Loving and Faithful  Family Dog. I bet that she would make the best  buddy given the chance to start her life all over again with a new master.  According to her former owner, Bella was timid and alert around other dogs and her first encounter, leash free in a pen with a male made her a little nervous. Not every dog around has been socialized with his/her peers and if needed, Bella might need some teaching in that department. Bella has my vote.I see her as  an amazing forever best friend, the pooch who would never let me down, the ideal companion for all adventures.Come and meet Bella at the Manhattan Care Center.
