Bella

Bella is a nice little rat terrier, maybe 20 pounds. She is 8 years old, which means that she is mature yet has many more years to go.

She has lived with dogs, kids and cats, and is house trained and crate trained.

Rat terriers make great pets, as they are affectionate, smart, and sensitive. They have lots of personality and like to be with their people. Bella will make a great addition to just about any family.

Bella is spayed, microchipped, tested for hear tworm, and vaccinated. She is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes. Go to the Tahoe animal shelter’s Facebook page to see photos and descriptions of all pets at the shelter.

Call 530.573.7925 for directions, hours, and other information on adopting a pet. For spay-neuter assistance for South Tahoe residents, go online.
