My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST FILL OUT AN APPLICATION - SEE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. WE CANNOT RESPOND TO ANY INQUIRIES ABOUT THIS PET UNLESS WE HAVE A COMPLETED APPLICATION. VISIT OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.RAWHIDERESCUE.ORG TO FILL OUT AN APPLICATION.

Bell is four/five years old and quite shy until she gets to know you. Bell would make a wonderful addition to the right family. She likes nothing more that to settle down to an evening watching TV on her bed.

Unfortunately, until her recent liberation from a puppy mill Bell spend her entire life in a puppy mill having babies (for example, we had to teach her how to walk down and up stairs). Considering this she really is quite remarkable in that she already walks nicely on a leash and is housebroken (thus affirming what we already suspected, this Bell is a smart girl!).

Her favorite things in life are squeaky toys, rawhides, greenies and cheese. Bell has recently showed an aptitude for fetch (there's that lab blood in her coming out!) and loves that she can run and is not confined to a cage.

Bell would do well with a family that does not have small children or are retired and have the time and patience to give this little girl love and happiness she deserves.

Bell is a special girl, and we know that there is a special family out there for her that will understand her background and work with her to keep that discovering that goofy labby girl inside!

Rawhide Rescue opens its arms to many dogs who are from puppy mills, or large breeding facilities, where dogs are bred for profit and not love. These dogs are routinely killed after their breeding days are over, usually at about age five, but we have been able to rescue dogs from some facilities.

Puppy mill dogs are a special rescue, as they have spent the majority of their lives in cages, and have not been properly socialized around humans. Each dog's rehabilitation varies widely, but problems with housebreaking, timidity and poor health are common. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please follow this link to find out more about what the special challenges and rewards are in adopting a puppy mill rescue.

Check the events page on our website for more information and directions to our adoption events.

To adopt Bell the Lab, or any of our animals, please visit our website at www.rawhiderescue.org and download our Microsoft Word dog application or use our on-line application. Due to the volume of inquiries we receive, we can only respond to you if you have submitted a completed application.
