BELLE - WEST HIGHLAND WHITE TERRIER WESTIE / BICHON FRISE / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: West Highland White Terrier Westie / Bichon Frise / Mixed. Hello everyone! Meet Apollo and Belle, a bonded senior brother and sister pair looking for a new home after their senior owner could no longer care for them. Both pups are 14.5 years young. Apollo appears to be a Bichon/Poodle mix and Belle looks like a little Westie. When they are out and about, everyone tells them how cute they are. Belle is visually impaired but that doesn’t stop her one bit! She loves to explore the house, and when she gets tired, she will find a soft spot to plop down for a nap. Belle loves to sniff so her favorite place is outside with her nose in the grass. She gives her tail a workout as she is a happy little girl! Apollo is very outgoing and loves to walk. He wants to visit every human or pup he sees! He is very good with children who want to pet him. Apollo wants to be close to you so he will hang with you when making dinner or lay next to you in the den while you work. He does have a grade 4 heart murmur and will require medicine for the rest of his life. Apollo and Belle are working on their potty habits. They need to wear a doggie wrap/diaper when roaming the house, although their foster mom is working hard to eliminate the need for the wrap/diaper. They stay in a pen with two small crates when no one is available to watch them. They keep their pen clean even overnight, so they are learning! We are looking for someone with a BIG heart to adopt these two sweet seniors. A one-story home is a must for Belle’s safety. A fenced-in yard would be best for them and easiest on their adopter. Someone home more often would be needed to continue with their potty training. They are fine with respectful younger children and a dog savvy cat.
