Updat 8/1/2009:
Bella's foster mom write:

She is a very sweet puppy, stranger friendly though. More likely she will not be a good protective dog, but definitely will be an awesome companion. I think she is very suitable for a household with children: she does not bite people and very gentle in nature. Shatzi also does not have any destructive habits, i.e. chewing anything and everything. She does need some rubber squicky toys and bones to chew on while is still teething. Her house training is progressing, less and less accidents. She eats well too, no health problems so far. I did give her a bath the first day I got her and applied some Frontline too. Her coat is beautiful, she gets tons of compliments when we walk her outside. I only hope this great pup will find a great home as she deserves.

Bella is in a temporary foster home who reports that she is very sweet, gets along with other dogs and loves to play. She is being crate trained and her house breaking is coming along nicely.
Bella is a sable GSD, and will darken as she gets older.

A woman took Bella from a friend who had developed allergies to the dog hair. This woman neglected to tell her husband who informed her it was him or the dog. Evidently, she chose him because Bella was surrendered to an animal shelter in Missouri. It looks like she originated with a breeder because she was accompanited by a shady looking "register your dog" form.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
