About this Dog
Belle Ami is a senior female unaltered beagle who was surrendered to Animal Control after being tethered on a chain in a yard. Belle Ami’s name is French for “beautiful friend” and that is all she wants to be in life –to snuggle and be a beautiful friend to whoever loves her. She is affectionate, and likes to stay close to her people, and is always nearby wherever they are. She gets along with her foster dog siblings, except that she does get jealous when they are getting food or attention or a bed that she wants, and then she will growl at them. She will snuggle with the other dogs if it is her idea. She would probably like best to be an only dog, but can tolerate other dogs if needed. Belle Ami was seriously ill with bronchitis when she came into rescue. She was treated with antibiotics and steroids and has made a full recovery. She is heartworm negative, and is otherwise in good physical condition, except for arthritis which is expected for her age. She receives monthly injections of Librella for her arthritis. She is moderately active and will follow you anywhere. She generally is quiet in the house and the yard unless she sees another dog or people pass by, and then she will bay for attention. She is friendly with strangers. Because she is strongly driven by food, she should be supervised around small children. She has never shown aggression to any person. She is up to date on shots and preventive medicines for heartworm and fleas and ticks. Her potty training is a work in progress – she will use a doggy door and go outside when that is available, but if it is not she will go inside. She gets restless and will go to the door when she needs to go out. She weighs about 24 pounds. She does not like being leashed or tethered, and will try to chew through the tether to escape. Her teeth are badly worn – the vet says she probably wore them out trying to chew through her chain every day.

Adopt Belle Ami and Receive Belle Ami's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Belle Ami's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Belle Ami's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Belle Ami, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Belle Ami's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Belle Ami was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Belle Ami’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Belle Ami’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Belle Ami’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
