Belle is a Shetland Sheepdog. She is 2 years old, and she is the joy in my life. I
am an older single woman, and my daughter thought I needed a companion.
When I saw Belle it was love at first site. She is such a beautiful dog. Of course
I should have remembered never to judge a book by its cover. Behind that
beauty, is the highest strung personality, and I love every minute of it. She barks
at helicopters, bikers, lizards, thunder, rain, and do not even mention the car.
It seems she is at war with the dashboard. So far Belle 100 dashboard 0. She
jumps in the air, to attack the air, she jumps on and off deck boxes, and for
some reason loves to run in circles. Her favorite pastime is for me to turn on the
hose so she can run after the water and attack it. She always has me smiling or
laughing, even when I want to yell at her for all the mischief she gets into. She
has brought me such joy; I cannot even begin to express the love I have for this
dog. My days are full of love and affection, and at night, she jumps up onto the
couch and sits by my side while I watch T.V. she is the best companion, and I
adore her. I can begin to imagine how lonely and boring life would be with out
her.
