Husky, mixed-breed dog and tuxedo cat up for adoption in Lane County

Greenhill Humane Society

Bella is an 8-year-old Husky described as extremely gentle and smart.

She seems to have had a rough past before coming to the shelter and was a bit nervous meeting new people, but she has since warmed up and proven what a friendly, affectionate pup she can be.

Her new family must be patient and allow her time to get comfortable. She is playful in a big yard where she has plenty of space to run around and get her zoomies out. She also loves squeaky toys and has a contagious smile.

Bella is looking to be the only pet in a household, and she'd make a great companion to kids as long as they can respect her space. She weighs 57 pounds, is microchipped, is up to date on vaccines and will be spayed before being adopted.

Greenhill Humane Society is open seven days a week, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 88530 Green Hill Road in Eugene. For more information call (541) 689.1503 or visit www.green-hill.org.
