Dear Friends,
I hope you are having a great week! All is well in my world ... a nice, quiet week here. Momma has been working hard and I have been a great helper.
Today I have a beautiful visitor for you to meet. Bella is a 4 year old Bluetick Hound Mix. Naturally, I love hounds!
Abby: What is your background and how did you
end up in rescue?
Bella: My mommy wasn't supposed to be puppy shopping, but she came to
the pound anyway. Even though her mom and boyfriend (who is now my daddy) told
her she didn't need a puppy while she was still in college, she was stubborn
(just like me) and took me home anyway. Now my daddy can't imagine life without
me, and my grandma loves me too! Mommy knew what she was doing!
Abby: How were your first days at your new
home?
Bella: They were a little confusing, because mommy had to pack up for college for
the new semester, and I had to stay with Grandma and Grandpa while mommy got
settled into her new house. But we were reunited soon enough.
Abby: What are a few of your favorite things?
Bella: My favorite thing to do is eat out of the trashcan. It's so yummy! I also really
like bossing around my sisters, Molly and Freckles. I win every time. Because
I'm amazing!
Abby: Do you have any tips for people who
want to adopt a rescue pet?
Bella: Pick a pet you feel an instant connection to. Even
though mommy and I are different, we always still love each other because we
have a good mommy-daughter connection. I know she loves me even when I make her
mad. Also, make sure you are able to take care of them. If they have a lot of
energy, you need to have a fenced-in yard or go for lots of walks!
Abby: Is there a rescue group you
want to send a shout out to?
Bella: I was adopted from Brunswick
County Animal Shelter, and they were so nice to me!
(http://aps.brunswicksheriff.com/). My sisters were adopted from Brother Wolf Animal Rescue in Asheville, NC, and they thought those people were nice too!
Bella, thank you so much for visiting today! I loved learning about your happy rescue story. (I must admit I am a little jealous that you can go trashcan surfing! I am too short for that, but it sounds like fun.)
Friends, if you would like to leave a message or question for Bella, you can leave a comment below. I would also love to hear from you if you have a rescued cat or dog who would like to be featured here.
Have a great weekend!
Love,
Abby xoxoxo
