Muffin’s Pet Connection: Bring Bella home

WOOF WOOF: Hi! I am Bella and I’m the cutest puppy you have ever seen. I am a beautiful, sultry, black and white, sociable Pit Bull with an awesome personality and a ton of energy. I am 10 months old, 55 pounds, spayed and up to date with all of my vaccinations including rabies and bordatella.

“I am housebroken, friendly, loving and can be your best friend if you let me. I am great with older children and other pets and can be left in the house alone to guard your things while you are out.

“Unfortunately, my owner cannot provide the best possible care and environment for me at the moment, so he’s trying his best to help me spread my love to another family. Can you find it in your heart to help me him and adopt me? I promise you will not regret it. Please call (718) 974-3043or email ([email protected]) and ask for me, Bella. Hopefully, we will meet soon. This could be the beginning of a new friendship!
