No she doesn't spend her time hanging out with vampires and werewolves. Bella did however meet her fair share of shady characters before she was adopted from the Calgary Pound. She is a beautiful tri-colour collie who is adapting well to life with her new family.
Many people who are looking to purchase a pet often do not consider the pound because they want to train the animal from scratch, or want a young dog. I'll admit, even I was hesitant to think about owning a pound pup, but what I learnt during a trip to the City of Calgary Animal Services Department surprised me. Many of the animals are not even a year old, and are infact well trained. Bella for example, before being adopted, knew commands such as sit, stay and shake. She was also completely house trained.
If you are considering purchasing/adopting a pet, please consider looking at your local pound. And if you live in the Calgary area, please visit the City of Calgary's Animal Services website.
Hartigan also tagged along to play with Bella... but unfortunately after the first fifteen minutes he was more interested in the ball...and drooling all over it.
