Adoptar a Bella

Bella is a sweet sensitive girl who unfortunately arrived as a stray and therefore we have no history on her life before Battersea. She loves human attention and has shown to easily over bond with people that care for her and will often seek reassurance from them. She is looking for owners who have experience and knowledge of anxious dogs and who will help her rebuild her confidence. Bella can be underconfident when she meets dogs, and will need gentle exposure to allow her to build up that confidence gradually with regular dog socials and with friends who she can approach in her own time. Owners will need to reward calm, relaxed behaviours to help boost her self esteem. Bella has shown at times to be stressed when coming back to her kennel from a walk and will need a quiet home location where she can not feel overwhelmed and triggered by things which may spook her as she has shown to be worried by loud sounds. She is looking for owners who are able to provide her with a reliable routine to help her feel more secure within herself and learn to cope and settle when being left alone in a home. New owners will need to be patient in helping her adjust to a home environment, where we know she will want to spend time with her humans and enjoy having company!
