Hello! My name is Beltane but you can call me Bel. I came to live here August 11, 2006. I was adopted from the Tallahassee-Leon Community Animal Service Center in Tallahassee, Florida. Mommy does not know much of why I was there, just the little the shelter knew. I was found as a stray. I was there about 12 days. The day my Mommy adopted me, a man that worked there came into the room my new human sisters were playing with me in and told my mommy he was glad to see I was able to play, as when I was first brought in I was so freaked he could not catch me to pick me up at all. Its because of Marian and Nefreteri that I got a home. They chose me. Mommy felt guilty for what they went through in losing Nefreteri’s Miss Tippi, who they had for only 8 months. Mommy was determined that the girls not go through heartbreak again. She offered them whatever they wanted. A puppy from Lil’s breeder, or a puppy of the breed of their choice from a show breeder that genetically tests. They surprised her by saying they wanted to at least try adopting from a shelter or rescue. Mommy told them they would be taking a bigger chance with a dog with an unknown history. SHE was willing to take that chance, but they didn’t have to if they did want to. They said they knew and were willing to take the chance. They noticed me on their second visit to the shelter. I am cute, if a little funny looking. The girls loved me right away and took me into a room to play fetch (I already knew how) while Mommy took care of my adoption. I came home the next day and met my bestest friend in the world Lil. We play constantly. She’s a little possessive with toys and chews. Mommy gives us twice as much as would be enough for both of us but she will take all but one and hide them then fight with me over the one that’s left. So we just play tug-o-war, cause I’m not giving up. An Updated Picture: This was taken December 2006, a professional pic (Mommy paid for the copyright release so we get to use it). I am 10 months old here: Update: January 2007: I am 11 months old. My family found out its likely I am a border terrier mix, not that they care. I have proven the devil to train but we're making progress. I went along on my family Xmas vacation and made a pain the rear of myself every way I could. I cried when crated at night. I managed to get under the house we were visiting on the second time out and into the neighbor's yard the third. I fussed, I yelped, and no amount of toys made me happy. My mom says I'm lucky she loves me. I still love to play with Lil all day and I love Nefreteri. I will wrap my front legs around her shoulders while we sleep and she carries me around all the time.
