My story

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

Belle was found at a high kill shelter after her family moved out of state and did not want to take her along. She would thrive in an active home with owners who will walk or run her, play ball, and maybe bike or hike. Belle was shy when we got her, so we put her in two months of boot camp training where she behaved so well and got her confidence back. Although she has done extremely well with the other dogs, we have not introduced her to small dogs. If you have another medium to large dog, she should do well with them. Cats are not her cup of tea.

Belle is 4 years old, smart, very sweet and loves attention and being petted. Her favorite pastime is playing ball and playing with her tug toys. She will love her twice daily walks - she walks so well on leash and is only about 50 pounds, a really good size for almost any home. Please fill out an application today!April 17, 2024, 1:11 pm

Additional adoption info

All of our animals come fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered (if old enough), and microchipped. Puppies and kittens will be spayed/neutered and have all shots when they are old enough. There is an Adoption application, a quick phone interview to make sure it is a good fit, a meet and greet with the dog, then a home check, and an adoption contract. We ask for a $400 donation for adult dogs, and $500 for puppies at the time of adoption so that we can save other dogs from the shelter. The first step is to fill out an app here: https://thelittlereddog.org/adoption-form

More about this rescue

Dogs are man's best friend, but it is not always the other way around. The Little Red Dog was founded in memory of a little red American Pit Bull Terrier who did not make it. If you are familiar with the Michael Vick dog fighting case chronicled in The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption. The Little Red Dog was brutally beaten to death by Vick and his cronies because she didn't want to fight.

The Little Red Dog rescues dogs; red, blue, tan, white, brown, black and all colors in between. We do not discriminate against ANY breed; that's because we are a real rescue, and we will help as many animals as we can. Our primary goal is to get them into loving homes. Our hope that some day all of them make it, but most of all, we will never forget the Little Red Dog and many others who did not.
