Lost Dog — Golden Retriever Near Valrico

April 26, 2026

Our beloved family member, Bella, has been missing since April 24th from Crest Avenue in Valrico. She's a 4-year-old female Golden Retriever weighing approximately 60 pounds with a beautiful golden coat. Bella was wearing a pink collar with bells when she disappeared.

She was last seen heading toward the wooded area behind Valrico Park. Bella is very food-motivated and responds well to her name, so she may come if called. If you've spotted her or have any information about her whereabouts, please reach out immediately.

We're asking all Valrico neighbors to keep an eye out during your daily routines. Please check your garages, sheds, and yards—Bella may be hiding if she's scared or injured. Any sighting, no matter how small, could help bring her home safely.

If you have any information, contact Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center at (813) 744-5660 or visit Hillsborough County Animal Services.
