She is an emotional support animal, a therapy dog, and an agility dog. Her favorite activities are cuddling, training, swimming in her pool, playing hide and seek, going for long walks, hanging out with her best friend Biscuit, and eating. She loves all people who are kind and loving!
She is a service, therapy, scent, trick and agility dog. Her favorite word is "cookie!" She lives with Lisa, Mark, a re-homed dog named Indie and four rescue cats: Odyssey Kit Kat, Fratello, Sorella and Cugina.
Team Aida Bella
Lisa and Aida Bella, a high-performance agility dog, are quite the unique agility team. Team Aida Bella leads to smiles and laughter from spectators and competitors alike. Aida Bella is the first Lagotto Romagnolo to receive titles in the United States Dog Agility Association (USDAA).
Presently the team has received 26 titles including two top ten awards and the prestigious Performance Dog Champion from USDAA. The team continues to have much success competing in the Enthusiast category with Canine Performance Events (CPE), receiving all top awards and participating in the past three national events. Team Aida Bella recently participated in their first trial with American Kennel Club (AKC) and received multiple ribbons.
Competing in dog agility events has led Lisa and Aida Bella across the United States on an incredible journey. Team Aida Bella would like to thank Vincent Madeiros of Good Dog 101 who introduced, trained, and coached them.
In addition, Team Aida Bella thanks the numerous organizations and clubs who make competing in dog agility possible.
