About Belle

To adopt Belle, you'll need to meet her in Blaine, WA due to border patrol rules. Belle is currently with a loving foster family in Houston, TX, and she can be transported quickly once an adopter steps up. Rescued as a puppy from Houston’s cold streets with her mom and siblings, Belle is part of the Disney princess litter and has grown into a confident, affectionate companion. Fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed, Belle is now about one year old and weighs in at a healthy medium size. Her coloring is a striking mix of gray and cream. Belle meshes well with other dogs her own size—she loves to play and enjoys a good romp in the yard but settles in for cuddles, too. She can safely be around children, regularly spending time with young kids and showing only gentleness and patience. Belle lived with cats as a puppy; her foster can cat-test her again if needed. She’s house trained and crate trained, and she does well when left while her humans are out. On walks, she stays right by your side and handles the leash like a pro. A couple of quirks for transparency: Belle does best with dogs her own size or larger and isn’t a fan of little dogs, especially at mealtimes. She has shown food guarding behaviors only around small dogs—not people or children, and not with larger canines. Belle travels calmly in the car and greets everyone she meets with wagging enthusiasm. Her foster raves about her soulful, loving nature and says Belle is down for anything—runs, lazy Sundays, or just a good belly rub. Ready to make Belle part of your crew?
