Kona Bella is a 2-year-old Rottweiler in Salt Lake City, UT, who needs $2,145 for knee surgery (like a human's torn ACL).

I followed my fiancé from Salt Lake City, Utah to Kansas City in August of 2017- We didn't have any family there, and decided that we needed to add some life to our empty nest. I feel like we rescued our puppy when we met her in less than acceptable conditions. The family that was sold her was very nice, but not equipped to take care of the "accidental" litter their two Rottweilers had. My boyfriend wanted a male, but the pick of the litter was already taken- He wanted to leave, but I asked to look at the other litter mates, that's when he noticed our soon to be fur baby running around her siblings like a Boss. We didn't take her home that night, my boyfriend said if she was still there in a week we could get her (that was the longest week ever) Long story kind of short, a week later- we took her home! I named her KONA BELLA- I love Hawaii, KONA is one of my favorite places on the Big Island, she was such a beautiful dog- Bella was perfect for her middle name. I'd grown up with dogs as a child, Schnauzers and Golden Retrievers- this was my first Rottweiler. I can honestly say, I will never own another breed. From day one Kona has had a boss like attitude, she is smart and knows what she wants. She has turned me into a true Fur Mom- puppy kisses from head to toe, fur on my clothes, baby dog talk, poop pick up daily- and yes dog dress up!
I cannot imagine my life without her.
