Wet Nose Wednesday: Adopt This Kalamazoo Dog named Bellissima

Bellissima is a special needs dog from the SPCA of Southwest Michigan looking for a forever home.

Wet Nose Wednesday gives you a chance to meet some of the lovable animals that are up for adoption at the SPCA of SW Michigan.

Bellissima is a cattle dog, about 1 1/2 years old. She is also deaf.

"Dog with special needs are hard to [find homes for]," according to Katie Timber, Executive Director of the SPCA.

As she may be startled easily, you can see how Bellissima may not be a good fit for families with babies or very young children. As a cattle dog, she is a very energetic and loyal dog and is "just a love."

Is your current dog disobedient? Call Pam at Barkbusters. Barkbusters can turn your problem dog into a lifetime buddy. Any dog. Any age. Any issue.
