My story

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

Part Athlete, Part Couch Potato...Total Best Friend!

Have you ever met a 70lb dog who think she's a kitten? Meet Bluebelle! She is the ultimate ambivert and a sophisticated lady who takes her time making new friends. But once you're in, you're in for life, and Bluebelle will show you what the life of a party she truly is. She'll rub against your legs like a cat, and even offer a happy wiggle when she sees you grab her leash.

Bluebelle is a professional at being a good girl at home. She is 100% house and crate trained, though a dream to leave alone free roaming - usually, you'll find her exactly where you left her, napping soundly. She isn't a huge fan of "group dining" and prefers to enjoy her cuisine in her own quiet space - but in exchange, she'll be your most loyal, low-maintenance companion.

But don't her homebody status fool you - this girl's got moves! She is an agility star who loves to zoom, and show off her tricks for a treat. She's perfect on the trail, focusing on sniffari while people whiz past. She's also a champion car-rider who will happily hop in for any road trip.

Bluebelle is looking for someone who understands that the best relationships are built on trust and a few tasty treats. She'd thrive in a calm, low-traffic home with adults or teens who can appreciate her "cat-like" quirks.

The very best part? Bluebelle comes with a Success Team! You'll get free training sessions to learn her favorite games, plus free behavior support for the rest of her life to ensure your bond only grows stronger.
