Bella was an owner surrender in Fruita , CO.  At nine months she was rambunctious and ill-mannered. Her family didn’t have the time to devote to her so they contacted Colorado Wyoming Vizsla Rescue.  Mark and Dani, who are the Western Slope rescue volunteers, took their own rescued V, Redford , better known as RedFred, and picked up Bella on a Friday.  The first stop was a park where both dogs could run free and get acquainted.  RedFred generally doesn’t like other dogs, but they were such a good match that within a week Mark and Dani were asking Rita if they could adopt Bella.  She had been spayed, but was not up to date on her vet work, including a heartworm test. A couple of visits to the vet took care of those details, and she now has a clean bill of health.  Bella, now CaBella, is learning how to come, sit, stay, and hopefully not to chew.  She’s an enthusiastic chewer, but being vigilant about what’s left within her range, and several runs in the desert every day are helping curb that habit!  She and RedFred are still great buds, although it’s becoming obvious that she’s the alpha dog.  Fred is looking pretty hen-pecked!  CaBella’s very bird oriented, and may be going on her first pheasant hunt with Mark and RedFred this coming November. - Dani
