Isabella‘s Story

❤️ Isabella is Available❤️

Please READ the bio and adoption requirements first to make sure you are a perfect fit BEFORE APPLYING.

Hi, I'm Isabella! I'm a 2-year-old Doodle weighing about 55 pounds, and if you're looking for a sweet, loyal best friend who just wants to be by your side, I think we should meet. I have a soft, curly coat that doesn't shed, an even sweeter personality, and a heart that's happiest when I'm close to my people. My favorite thing in the world is leaning into you for head scratches. I'll gently press my head against your chest just to soak up all the love you're willing to give.

I'm a pretty easygoing girl who's happy to match your pace. Want to spend the afternoon relaxing on the couch? I'll happily curl up beside you. Heading outside to play or explore the yard? Count me in! I enjoy going for walks and have excellent leash manners, although I still get a little excited when squirrels or rabbits make an appearance. I'm working hard on ignoring them and getting better every day.

My daily routine is simple and predictable. I head outside in the morning before breakfast, spend the day hanging out with my family, and relax in my crate whenever they're away. I have dinner around 5:00 p.m., enjoy plenty of outdoor time throughout the evening, then settle in to watch TV before happily sleeping in my crate all night without making a peep. I even get excited for mealtime and will happily run and hop right into my crate when it's time to eat!

I absolutely adore people, especially kids. I've done wonderfully with children of all ages, even a wobbly one year old! Whoever is handing out pets instantly becomes my favorite person, and I'll gladly stay as close to them as possible. I also do well with other dogs and have happily lived with and visited dog friends. When I'm out on walks, I can be a little unsure around unfamiliar dogs and may prefer to give them some space. Once I have a chance to settle in, I'm perfectly content sharing my home with another friendly dog. Cats are still a mystery to me, so I'm not sure how I'd feel about them.

I'm completely potty trained and crate trained. Sometimes if I'm feeling nervous or overwhelmed, I might have a little submissive pee accident, but as I've learned that I'm safe and loved, my confidence has continued to grow. A little patience, gentle encouragement, and giving me space when I need it go a long way in helping me feel secure.

I already know "sit," "come," and "crate," and I'm always eager to learn because I love making my people happy. More than anything, I'm looking for a family who will let me be their constant companion. If you're searching for a loving, affectionate, medium energy girl who will happily be your shadow through every part of the day, I can't wait to meet you.
