Featured Rescue: Bella the Chihuahua Feist Mix at Jersey Shore Animal Center

*THIS IS NOT AN EVENT POST*
**THIS IS A POST HIGHLIGHTING A FEATURED RESCUE ANIMAL WHO NEEDS A LOVING HOME!**

Posted by: Jersey Shore Animal Center

Bella..the sweet Chihuahua Feist mix has been patiently waiting in the shelter for over a year, hoping for a second chance to find her forever home 😢. Bella’s journey has been filled with ups and downs, but we believe there’s a perfect family out there for her. 💕

Update 7-15-22 Sadly Bella has been returned after being adopted one year ago. She is about a little over 1 1/2 years old and 20lbs. Still full of energy for sure. Her adopters had too much going on on their home between 2 young children and a new baby to give Bella the time, exercise and training she needs. We don't want to give up on this girl so we are in search of a new home for her. We are looking for dog savvy people who will give this girl the structure she needs. She is understandably nervous here and putting a collar around her neck and leashing her up is somehow triggering her. Our staff has been working with her and we have been making positive strides and we know if a potential adopter reinforces the structure and training, she will be just fine. Bella will need a home with lots of love and patience to help her.

Bella has been settling in and doing great since her return to the shelter. She has been making friends with the volunteers and staff. It's getting much easier to leash her up once she gets to know you. We know she will make a great companion in the right home. We want to set her up for success so she would be best as the only pet in an active home which will take her for plenty of walks and give her lots of daily exercise. Our staff has been working with her and we have been making positive strides and we know if a potential adopter reinforces the structure and training, she will be just fine. Bella is 2 years old and 20lbs and ready for another chance at a family.
