Adopt a pet

Don't you think Bella has the cutest face? This girlie pup is a doll, with the softest, fluffiest coat, and an amazing pyrsonality. Bella is inquisitive and has a very pawsitive outlook on whatever the world has to offer. Bella adores her male canine foster siblings, and she can often be found having fun with her playmates before napping in the shade or by the AC vents. In addition to plenty of playtime, Bella is content with a variety of chews and chew toys so she can occupy herself while you are busy with chores. Now, if you need a second opinion about whatever you are working on, Bella is more than happy to give you her two cents. This adorable girl loves a good belly rub, and if you want to relax on the couch, she will happily be your cuddle bug and give you lots and lots of kisses. If you think Bella sounds like a pyrfect girl, it is because she is absolutely THE pyrfect girl! All she needs is a pyrfect furever home so she can be your pyrfect companion!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
