Our Story
The reason behind Bella's Helping Paws...
Imagine having a friend unlike any other you have known in your life. A friend so devoted as to become a member of your family and whose happiest moments are spent with the family...doing anything, or even doing absolutely nothing at all. A friend whose loyalty at all times and in all situations is never in question; and whose support is unwavering in both good times and bad. Imagine such a friend whose love is truly without condition or expectation and who are ready and willing to put your needs ahead of their own.
If you have ever been blessed by such a relationship with a beloved pet; you have found that rare friendship and you will want to do everything possible to love and protect the animal and that relationship.
Occasionally however, regardless of your love and devotion, pets may need additional care in order to survive and preserve their quality of life. Even if such treatment is available though; it may be beyond the financial means of their owners, resulting in a decision no one should need to make.
In honor of these precious relationships between humans and animals of all kinds and with the intent of offering hope to those whose beloved pets suffers from illness or injury that impairs the quality and duration of life, which is how Bella's Helping Paws was conceived.
