About Belle

Australian Cattle Dog mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Female

MY NAME IS BELLE WILL YOU LOVE ME? I am about a seven-year old highly intelligent and sweet Australian Cattle Dog. I had a very rough start my first year, but I was rescued and adopted into a great home. I went from pitiful to beautiful in just a matter of weeks. I love playing with an assortment of toys I have here at home. I sleep on my dog pillow. I was crate trained but when they knew it was safe to leave me out, I now sleep under the bed unless there is a spot of sunshine to enjoy and then you will find me there. I walk on a leash like a lady, know: sit, stay, leave-it, down, okay. My family thinks I have deductive reasoning too. I am simply amazing! I love running the course at the dog park. This is why you are reading about me now. I run very fast and somehow I was clipped by another dog. It did not hurt at the time, but the next day I was limping. Well we took real good care thinking I was back to normal. I was running again and going up and down the stairs and everything. Last week I took off full cattle-dog speed after a ball and YIKES, it hurt! I became a three-legged hop-along dog very quickly. So here is the bad news: I need the equivalent of ACL surgery and three-months healing.The surgery is taking place October 16, 2019. I will rest at Sugar Hill Animal Hospital until the 23rd and will return to be boarded as needed. Here is the REALLY BAD NEWS: My owners are moving out of the country and cannot take me. I love dogs, children, grown-ups and I have a great deal of respect for cats. What is with all that hissing? The sooner the better for us to love each other and become family. My surgery and aftercare will be paid. My doctor said all my bones and structure are in great shape. My house is up for sale and one-way tickets for ministry abroad departing January 7, 2020 is just around the corner for my family. This is a bummer for all of us EXCEPT you if you want to be my family. We will make each other very happy.
