Belle

Belle came into our organization as an owner surrender. She and her litter mates were found in a box on the side of a road when they were a few months old. New homes were found for all the puppies, all except Belle. She was left outside and wasn't played with or loved. Someone took notice of this and offered to take Belle off of their hands. But because Belle was not socialized and not use to humans, it made it very difficult for her to fit into her new family. Belle was very weary of humans, especially men and had never been in a house before. It took us a couple of days, but Belle warmed up to my husband, our 3 dogs, and even my young son. She never barked, never showed any signs of aggression, and amazingly never had an accident in the house. Belle was adopted by her forever family in April and is doing great. They report that she loves spending time with her sister, Peaches, and the rest of the family and she thoroughly enjoys lounging around on the couch snug as a bug in a rug. She graduated from obedience school and is one smart little girl. She is very playful and full of energy. Belle is very much loved and gives twice as much in return.

Thank you to her adopted family and to Homeward Bound for giving this sweet girl the life she so deserves.
