Bella

Bella’s Story: Bella, a pit bull mix, was adopted by the De Sury’s when she was two months old. They adopted her because it was love at first sight; instantly they knew that Bella was going to be a perfect fit for them. Although she’s deaf, they often use sign language as a way to communicate with her, and she can still do what ‘normal’ dogs do! “Her favorite thing to do is swim in the pool and [go] on walks,” freshman Nina De Sury exclaimed.

Bella’s Name: The De Sury family chose the name Bella for their pit bull because it means beautiful in Italian.

Day-to-Day Life: Bella loves to go to the park in her neighborhood where she can jump around, run and interact with other dogs. After the park, she takes naps with Nina. Bella’s sweet, sassy and gentle personality are all reasons why everyone gets ecstatic over meeting her. It’s an understatement if you say that Bella loves to act like the queen of the house with her silly personality.

Her Favorites: Although Bella runs in circles around the house when it’s time to go to the park; Bella’s absolute favorite thing is to go swimming in her pool. To top off Bella’s calm, lovely life as a dog; after long hours of being active, she’s rewarded with her favorite treat: bacon bites. In between these parts of the day, in which Bella most looks forward to, she enjoys frequently play fighting with Nina’s other dog, Rocco.
