About Belle

Belle is a playful, loving girl who’s nearly one year old and full of heart. She’s under 50 pounds—a perfect medium size for outdoor adventures—and likely a pit mix on her mother’s side. Belle loves hard chew toys, crinkly and squeaky things, and never turns down a game of chase or a wrestling match with her dog friends. She’s happiest in a home with another playful dog and a fenced yard where she can run and play. A natural water dog, Belle enjoys anything from splashing in a kiddie pool to exploring rivers. She’s crate trained, potty trained, and sleeps through the night in her crate without fuss. Belle already knows "sit" and is working on other commands like "wait/stay," "drop it," and "down" while improving her recall. On leash, she can be shy in public and will need some continued confidence-building, but once she settles, her affectionate side shines through—she’ll shower you with kisses and becomes a real cuddle bug. Belle rides calmly in cars and is great with kids. She gets along well with other dogs and may playfully chase cats but doesn’t show any aggression. She’s the kind of dog who’s happiest with an active family, a dog companion, and plenty of time outdoors—especially if water is involved. Give Belle a chance and you’ll get a smart, affectionate friend always up for the next adventure. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
