Turn This 'Photo Of The Week' Into Cherished Lifetime With Dog

We dare you to catch the photo of Deb Codiroli's foster dog, Bella BooBoo, without falling in love. The 3-year-old pup needs a forever home.

CAMPBELL, CA -- Let's make this photo of the week of Deb Codiroli's foster dog resemble a dating ad.

Care to meet Bella BooBoo? This boxer-beagle mix likes to go for romps on the Los Gatos Creek Trail. She's fit, with 30 pounds of compact fun. She loves to play around but knows when to be reserved, with a slight meekness that some may interpret as hard to get.

But don't be hard to get yourself because Bella BooBoo seeks a relationship with someone or a family that will last forever.

"When I first got her, she was a little shy," said Codiroli, once a volunteer with San Jose Animal Advocates. The Campbell woman has been a foster mom to dogs for five years and would love to keep Bella. But she has two other dogs -- one a 12-year-old with no patience for a canine who's a quarter of her age.

"They have a piece of my heart, I'll miss her. I miss them all, but I want them to go to happy homes," Codiroli said.
