What a wonderful face this Collie girl has!

Miss Belle is a friendly, easy-going lassie. She's pretty laid back when inside, but likes to talk/bark a bit when spending time outside. She knows how to sit and lay down very well, and enjoys dog cookies as a reward! She loves food and gets pushy with little kids her height who have food in their hands, and for this reason we will only adopt her to a family with older children. Again with the food - Belle is a darned good counter-surfer, so her foster mom is learning to keep everything put away!

Belle would love to play with her foster brother, but he isn't interested, sigh. And her foster sister, Sara, would love to play with her, but Belle isn't interested in Sara. Sounds like a love song, doesn't it? "He loves her, but she loves him, and he loves somebody else..." No matter, she gets along with every doggy she meets. 

Belle has been well taken care of. She was recently groomed and her coat is gorgeous. She had a dental recently, and is learning how to "brush her teeth." Rather, she is learning to be okay with having her teeth brushed.

Please begin the process for adoption by reading our Adoption Policies and, if we sound like the right group for you, fill out our online Adoption Application. From there, our receipt of your completed application will be confirmed by email. You then will receive a follow-up phone call if we feel you are a good potential applicant for the dog. Lots of good conversation with the foster family, a reference from your veterinarian, and a home visit round out the screening process. We take dog adoption very seriously.  Please put a lot of thought into why you want to adopt a dog, and help us make a good match for your family. We appreciate your taking the time to visit with us. We will look forward to hearing from you as well.
