Bella von Bruchsal is a beautiful 11-12 month old German Shepherd mix. This sweet, gentle soul loves being petted while staying close by her person's side. If it were up to her, this girl would lie down and have her belly rubbed for hours! Although she initially hesitates during walks, Bella is easy on a leash and becomes more secure as you talk to and pet her. She is still learning her commands and takes her treats delicately. But what she truly loves is socializing with other dogs, so we think she would do well in a home with a canine friend. She enthusiastically greets other dogs on the playground and is even happier off-leash. This friendly girl enjoys interacting with dogs and  humans, and even passed her initial cat testing.

Rescued from the North Central animal shelter. Weight: 56 lbs
