Some things we adore about Belle:
1) She helps Austin out in the yard and keeps him company.
2) She is my little burgular alarm any time something suspicious comes near our house.
3) She has a very big appetite for anything. Vegetables, 92 dog bones at one time, grandmoms whole loaves of banana nut bread and pound cake, her momma's pumpkin spice cookies...(we thought Peepaw ate them all), 60 caramel calcium chews, and the dog loves acorns. There is a plant that she takes a bite of every day when we walk by it -without fail. And she never misses an opportunity to stop for a snack on a walk like the time she found a hamburger burried in the leaves on the side of the street. She ate it in 2 bites. Our little hamburgular.
4) She is our alarm clock. We dont even have to set one because she is up with the chickens every morning....
5)She loves to snuggle...
6) She loves to chase rabbits and squirrels. Those poor baby bunnies!
7) I am really excited to have her around when The Babe comes so she can eat all the food he throws everywhere! Yuck!
We love her so much and hope to have her around another 9 years!
Born in Lubbock TX - 9 years ago! I bought Belle in college my sophomore year and gave her to Austin as a little present. Little did I know how much effort it would be to take care of a puppy! I went with my roommate Katy to pick her up and we drove straight to the pet store to buy all the essentials. We got her home, gave her a bath and the poor thing would not stop crying at night, which made for a very cranky college student. Needless to say, I called Austin to come pick her up and take her home. She was adorable though....
She is always into something...looking for rabbits under the deck
Belle always sits in our closet when we get dressed for work in the morning. She loves to snuggle with her "babies"
Belle will always be our first baby!! Happy Birthday old girl!
