Story

Intake Date: 16 January 2026 ----- Age at Intake: 3 years ----- Breed: Pomeranian ----- Size: 7 lbs ----- Status: owner surrender ----- Compatible with: Dogs, cats, chill children. ----- Suitable for: home with a fenced yard, possible apartment with leashed exercise ----- Medical/Behavioral Needs: Requires regular grooming ----- Additional Notes: Meet Tammy 💕Tammy is a soft as a cloud Pomeranian with a heart made for cuddling and a personality best described as peaceful perfection. She came to rescue after a family divorce, and while life changed around her, Tammy stayed exactly who she is: loving. Tammy is the definition of a low-key companion. She’s quiet in the house, wonderful in a crate, and an absolute dream at bedtime—she sleeps soundly in bed and takes her cuddle duties very seriously. If you’re looking for a dog who won’t demand chaos or constant entertainment, Tammy is your girl. Because of her calm and quiet nature, Tammy would do best in a home with older or cuddly children who enjoy gentle affection. Loud, busy chaos and Tammy aren’t in the same dictionary. She’s polite about food too—preferring a couple of smaller meals instead of one big one. No diva behavior here, just a dainty little lady with refined tastes. 💅 As a Pom, Tammy will require regular grooming, and she handled her spa day at Pearls Pet Parlor like an absolute pro. Huge thanks to Bethany at Pearl’s for being such a blessing to rescue animals—Tammy left looking (and feeling) fabulous. If your ideal dog is cute, sweet, calm, and happiest curled up beside you, Tammy is ready to claim her spot on your couch—and in your heart. 🐾💗 ‐---------------------------------------------------------------------------- If interested in meeting and potentially adopting please read the adoption requirements and complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org.

Story

Intake Date: 16 February 2026 ----- Age at Intake: 9 months ----- Breed: Corgi ----- Size: 18 lbs ----- Status: owner surrender ----- Compatible with: Dogs, cats, children. ----- Suitable for: home with a fenced yard ----- Medical/Behavioral Needs: none noted ----- Additional Notes: Meet Geordie 👑🐾 Approximately 9 months old and just 18 pounds, Geordie is a little Corgi with a BIG personality. He’s active, boisterous, playful, and so ready to live the life he was always meant to have. Geordie came from a troubling start. It appears he spent much of his young life confined to a small crate, often left to sit in his own urine. A caring family member noticed his severely matted condition and living situation and stepped in. The owner surrendered him to them, and they brought him to For Belle’s Sake Rescue, where his fresh start began. We knew he needed a true “rags to riches” name. It came down to Leopold or Geordie (like the Queen’s dog 👑)… and he proudly responded to Geordie. Since then, he’s had many baths, all of his painful mats removed, and is now up to date on vaccines. He is scheduled for neuter on March 20th. Because of his upbringing, Geordie is understandably clingy with his humans and eager for attention. He also has a LOT of playful energy to burn! We are seeking a home with: • Another playful dog • A fully fenced, secure yard • A family committed to giving him the active, engaged life he deserves Geordie is making up for lost time. He wants to run, play, love, and finally feel safe knowing he’ll never be shut away again. From crate to crown — this little royal is ready for his forever kingdom. 👑🏡💕 ‐---------------------------------------------------------------------------- If interested in meeting and potentially adopting please read the adoption requirements and complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org.
