Raven’s Earth Animal Pet Pals – Meet Belle!

Raven’s Earth Animal Pet Pals – Meet Belle!

Meet Belle, the 3-legged princess!

Belle is vaccinated, chipped, and had X-rays, blood work and close evaluation- she is a very healthy spayed 8yo 38lb beagle lab mix!

Belle had a large mass effecting her left hind leg that required amputation- which was performed along with her spay.

Her new 3-legged status has gone very smoothly- the moment she woke up from surgery she was confident and ready to go find her forever family!

Belle loves all people big and small- she is a gentle girl with amazing manners- she is house trained, she never jumps up while greeting, never takes or chews things that don’t belong to her and NEVER snatches things.

She is always smiling and loves to shower people with kisses- from the moment she meets them!

Belle loves other dogs- especially young smaller playful ones. She does better off leash meeting – just needs some leash greeting work.
She had her first meeting with a few cats and that went great!

Belle loves to play fetch, walks and cuddle. She loves her bone and toys but couldn’t care less if anyone was to take something from her.

The perfect home for Belle is a family looking for a dog that will be your best friend because that is who Belle is- she is the perfect best friend – always there to cheer you on or up- she is just happy to be with you. We prefer a fenced yard however u fenced on a quiet street will be considered.

Belle so deserves a forever home- she is such an amazing dog- everyone that meets her falls in love instantly- she will bring mountains joy and sunshine into your life!

If you are interested in meeting Belle, please go to our website www.redleashrescue.com to put an application in online. Once an application was received, processed, and approved we will set up a meet and greet!

Don’t miss out on this Belle of the Ball!!
