About Bella

Bella is an intelligent and curious dachshund who combines independence with affection. Her bright, curious nature makes her a delightful companion.

Personality Highlights

Bella shows some separation anxiety and is very fond of her food.  While she can be independent and enjoys exploring the yard on her own, she also loves snuggling on the couch and sleeping in bed with her humans, but she will sleep in her own bed too as long as she is near to you. She follows you around everywhere and is very fit and healthy for 11 years. She would suit a single person or couple that are home often. 

Current Training Progress

• House Training:  Fully house trained, reliably using the yard during daytime hours. Rarely needs toileting during the night but she will let you know. 

• Lead Skills: Walks very well

• Social Skills: Initially cautious with strangers but warms up with patience and treats.

Daily Care

• Diet: loves dry food in the morning and wet food in the evening along with some treats.

• Exercise: Enjoys regular walks.

• Sleep: Settles well early evening and sleeps through till morning as long as she is close to you. 

• Behaviour: Bella can be quite possessive, she tolerates other dogs and cats but does get jealous at times and is quite bossy. She is not fond of young children. 

Bella would flourish in a home that offers:

• Company for the majority of the time

• A calm, structured environment

• A secure yard for exercise and bathroom breaks

• Understanding that she needs time to warm up to new people
