Meet Bella, a female podenco, born 1 January 2012. Bella was adopted from Axarquia Animal Rescue to a forever home in the UK, but her owner is unable to care for her any longer so we are desperately looking for a foster or forever home for her, preferably in the UK.

This beautiful girl is spayed and has up to date vaccinations, microchip and passport.

Before being rescued, Bella had been living rough in the campo in Spain with her litter of 9 pups. Despite her unfortunate beginnings, Bella settled remarkably well into a loving home. She is gentle natured, enjoys being in the outdoors and going for walks and is good with other dogs, cats and children. She is medium sized at 19kg, height head to floor 65cm; shoulder to floor 50cm.

Anyone who may be able to help with fostering or can give Bella the forever home she deserves, please e-mail axarquia-rescue@hotmail.com for more information.
