It is with GREAT sadness that I tell you that Belle has passed on to the Rainbow Bridge. She passed on May 10, 2006. We had to help her pass on. She had cancer. Anyway, click here to visit her memorial page. I will leave the rest of this page just as it was when she passed on.
Hello! My name is Belle. My "full" name is Ch. Steppin' Up Belle Star though! But, please, just call me Belle! My "old" Mommy and Justy's "old" Mommy are the same lady! Both Justy and I came from a lady in Oklahoma. I was in shows and all just like Justy. My birthday is July 21, 1995. I came to live here with my "new" family on April 1, 2002. I really like it here too! Like Justy, I was also a "show" dog. Not no more...I am just a loved pet now! Everybody thought there might be a problem with me here though. See, my "old" Mommy had an outside cat. I used to sit at the window and bark at that kitty. So, since there are five cats here no one was sure if me living here would work because my "new" Mommy said that she would not let me irritate the feline kids. I did bark at Booger some at first but I soon figured out that I would get in trouble for that. So, I fooled them all and don't bark at the feline kids here at all anymore! Now, here are some more pics of me. You will see that I REALLY need a haircut though! I am due to go to the groomer very soon so I'll have Daddy take some more pics of me so that you can see my pretty eyes!
Both of these were taken April 25, 2002.
You know...I have never been in "danger" of being sent to a shelter. I have lived a VERY cushy life compared to the babies in the graphics above. PLEASE...go to a shelter and adopt a baby. Or, volunteer to help out at that shelter. Or, donate money to your local shelter. We must all do all we can to help these babies out!
This picture is from when I was in those shows I mentioned above. I won some something or the other! Don't know what and it just does not matter at all now!
LOOK! I finally talked Mom into getting me a car just like Justy's! Mine is pink though cuz that's MY color!
Here is a new picture of me. Mom took this on July 27, 2003. You can see a very small part of Justy in the upper left hand corner. We are laying on a HUGE dog bed that is in the middle of the floor in Mom's office!
Here is another new picture of me. Mom took this one on November 5, 2003. I am laying up on Mom's computer desk. I like to lay up there while she is working on her computer. She works and I lay up there in my little bed and doze. Justy is usually up there with me. Then, we both sit up there and doze!!
Look at the pretty graphic over to the right! I got that from Shamus, Selkie and Firefly. They are kitty friends of my kitty brothers and sisters. It was so nice of them to make this pretty graphic for me for my birthday this year (2004)!
