Bella Donna, the Dog of the Day
Name: Bella Donna
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Rottweiller, Doberman Mix
Home: Montreal, Canada
 
   My dog is special cause she looks so mean but she is the most lovable dog there is. She knows many simple tricks, but if you ask her for a kiss she knows what that means. She is so huge but gentle at the same time. We gave her the name Bella Donna because Bella Donna is a name of the most deadly flower but at the same time the most beautiful... We thought it would suit her cause of her breed but it turns out that she is only beautiful =)

    Bella enjoys the snow very much... sometimes too much, she never wants to come inside... She knows simple tricks, if I snap my fingers she knows to sit, if I snap them twice she knows to lie down, and if I tell her "all the way down" she lies down sideways... We take her to a dog park here in Montreal and there is where she has all of her friends, she'll be sitting next to me and I will tell her, "go get 'em!" which is not a command to attack but to go and play and she does... She runs like a race horse and is faster then any other dog there... She's like a football player and can dodge those dogs like nothing.

    We also have a cat, which is her best friend, they both lie down together all the time, which is something you don't see often ... She likes to rollerblade with me in the summer and walk in the snow with me in the winter. She loves chasing squirrels, which is something that can be cute, only if she's not on her leash =) she is a big strong dog and if she sees a squirrel that is the only time I can not stop her. =) Sometimes we'll walk by a tree and she'll just stop at the tree looking up at the top of it hoping to see a squirrel. Very cute thing to see...

    She enjoys car rides, she hears the car keys and goes nuts, starts doing her little dance where she spins around and jumps high in the air. Well, that's all I can think of off the top of my head, she has though the most incredible personality for a dog that I have ever seen, so playful so gentle so caring... smarter than she looks and always full of energy and gives so much love.
