A paragraph that tells voters something fun or interesting about the dog in the photo. Is this a NMAR dog?  If so, how long has he or she been a part of your family?  Can you share something special that we could include on our calendar if your photo wins?
This is our sweetheart Bella. She was rescued by NMAR! We adopted her 5 years ago after finding her sweet face on petfinder. The wonderful staff at NMAR had called her Janey and we were told that she had been a stray and put into a " kill" shelter before they came to her rescue. The vet thinks that she is a Japanese Chin mix. She is sweet as can be and loves to cuddled. If anyone stops petting her, Bella is sure to give her now famous two paw wave which adds to her cuteness!
No one can resist this adorable face and she is as sweet as she looks! Thank you NMAR, we are forever grateful to you for selecting us to be Bella's ( Janie's) , forever family.
