Belle is a 4 year old spayed, female. Bullmastiff. She arrived at the Canadian shelter as a stray when she was a little over a year old. She has a healthy prey drive, so small animals are not an option for her to live with. She does not do well with other dogs because with previous adopters, she has been put in several situations where she was set up for failure having to defend herself from other dogs. The shelter where she came from has worked on socializing her with other dogs. She has shown interest and enthusiasm towards other dogs that are around her here but not loose. She has not shown aggression. Because of her past, we will be placing her in a home where she is the only animal so she can enjoy all the time and love from her people that a dog deserves.
One of Belle's favorite times at the shelter was when the school children came to tour the facility. She would always end up in the middle of the children, laying on her back with her legs up in the air. Belle adored her pint sized visitors!
Belle does great in a car and loves going on adventures. She also enjoys time on the couch watching TV. especially if American Idol is on. LOL! Maybe it's the clapping and cheering from the humans that surround her or maybe she is a fan of Steven Tyler? Hard to say!
Belle is as sweet and cuddly as she can be with people. She would be the ultimate movie buddy and would be thrilled to share your popcorn.
Belle has been in limbo for awhile now. It is my dream for her that she finds a home where her people see how special she is :)
