It’s with a heavy heart that I share the passing of sweet Bella. I had the privilege of looking after Bella and her sister, Lilly, and she was truly one of the most wonderful dogs I’ve ever known. Bella had such a gentle, loving soul—always full of kindness, always ready with a wagging tail, and always bringing joy to those around her.
She had a way of making every moment special, whether it was through her playful energy or her quiet companionship. Bella was more than just a pet; she was family, a loyal friend, and a source of endless love.
I’ll always cherish the memories of her, and she will be deeply missed. Rest easy, beautiful girl. You were so loved. Riaan Naude Antoinette Naude
Bella has just the right idea what to do in this heat.
With Uitenhage reaching these hot temperatures please make sure that your pets have access to:
×Fresh, clean water
×Shade/a place to cool down
×Don't leave them in cars even if you leave the window open.
×If you suspect heatstroke treat as fast as possible.
×When you walk your dogs do it early morning or just before sunset.
It's easy for our pets to overheat in warm weather. Unlike us, they can't remove layers when it gets hot, and they don't always have an option to move themselves to cooler places or avoid the sun. Animals are unable to cool down by sweating as humans do, so they are less able to regulate their body temperature.
