Her Story: Bella went in with her 2nd family with a Terrier & a Malamute. She had a litter and was sold 6 months later to her 3rd family joining an older Terrier, a same age bitch Patterdale and a elderly cat. The bitches had a few flares and lived separately. She came into foster in the summer 2012. Bella is fostered with a male Collie & Terrier bitch and apart from a few initial tiffs she has settled well. Bella is spayed, chipped and vax'd. Currently fostered in Reading, Berks.

Advert: Bella is an accomplished dog and loving pet. Bella is good with dogs particularly outside but has always lived with dog though her excitement can over spill and need management. Bella is walked on an extender lead and has always met dogs well outside. Bella loves to run. Her housetraining is a little fragile so needs care but is not difficult to maintain with attention. She is quiet and can be left without destruction. Loves to greet the Postman but always from the other side of the front door!

Bella is a 3 year old smooth haired 'Nuttall' Patterdale with a bronze tinge to her black coat. She is in good health. She loves to be stroked, is affectionate but not overtly licky. Doesn’t like to be smothered hence caution around children. A great addition to any adult family who can love her and offer her stability and kindness.
