My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Belle has made a 360 for the better. She is calm, still a little chatty when she wants to eat or go outside. She willingly gives us kisses and has calmed down 100%. We believe she will need to remain on Prozac since she was so badly neglected the first 4.5 years of her life. She is a different pup and actually has trust in her foster mom now. Prozac is not expensive, only $4.00 per month. She needs a calm home. We think she would do best as an only dog.

 She is ready to get adopted and go to her forever home. No children please.

 

 

UPDATE

Belle is now on Prozac daily because of her dislike of females. She was obviously mistreated in her surrenders home and has a dislike for women to the point of biting and being nippy. We have been working with her issues and have seen a difference in her attitude. She is a strong girl and she loves being outside.. Belle will need to go to a home with no children of any age and parents saavy to dog behavior. Belle would do best as an only dog.

Belle was brought into rescue as an owner surrender. She is a special pup who was never socialized with people or other domestic animals. She was a frightened little girl for the first month in foster care and would get nippy, never breaking the skin. She has gotten better with time, no more nipping as she now feels safe. Belle is not a pup that likes to cuddle, she is more of a loner, we are letting her come out of her shell on her own, not forcing anything on her. Belle is looking for a home with no children and someone who can be home most of the time. Someone willing to be patient with her and to gain her trust. Belle is potty trained as well as paper trained. She loves her crate, where she feels safe. She is very good when walking with her person. Belle would do best in a home with no other pets. She needs a securely fenced back yard, as she loves to explore. A FENCE IS REQUIRED.

We were told that Belle is a ShiPoo, but  doesn't really look like a ShihTzu at all. She looks all poodle and has the long poodle legs.  She is like her name says, Belle- or beautiful.
