About Me.

Bella is a sweet, easygoing 9-year-old Newfoundland looking for a comfortable home where she can enjoy her golden years.

She came into rescue significantly underweight and with skin issues, but she is steadily gaining weight and strength with good nutrition and care. Bella also has a thyroid condition that is managed with medication she will need for life.

Through it all, Bella has remained an absolute love bug. She loves people, gets along beautifully with other dogs, and does well with cats. She has also lived around rabbits and chickens. She walks nicely on leash, enjoys car rides and outings, and is happiest spending time with her people.

Bella is gentle, food motivated, and settling wonderfully into foster life. She still needs some TLC as she continues getting healthier, but she has plenty of love to give right now.

Bella is looking for a family who will give her the comfortable, loving retirement she deserves.
