Bella aka Flora

Hi Animatch People I am Bella now.  At Animatch I was Flora, but Jame.my new person, decided it wasn’t regal enough a name for me, so she did some research and decided on Queen Isabella—which quickly shortened to Bella.  I have a purple collar and leash.  We dodn’t need the leash much because we have a great back yard here, and we often go to visit Ma Tante who takes us (me and Ruby) for long walks in the fields near her house.  It took me a little while to settle in at Jane’s (three years ago!) because I thought I should be the only dog, and rule the roost.  But Ruby and I have worked that out, and I even am pleasant to the cat now. .  I still bark and challenge any dog that walks by our house, but I am pretty good at Ma Tante’s where there are always five or six other dogs.  We have discovered that I love babies.  Babies next door, going past the house, and even on TV!!  I wish I could tell Jane my story—where I came from before the pound in Montreal.  She asks me about it all the time.  Ruby and I went to dog camp in Vermront last autumn, and we did all kinds of fun things—I can run like the wind, and jump over hurdles, but I refuse to fetch anything.  After all, I am a Queen.  Ruby doesn’t fetch either, as she is a Princess, so if Jane wants something she has to fetch it herself.  .WE came on the website today and registered because Jane has a crazy hankering for another dog!!.  I’m not so sure about this, but Ruby woud probably go for it—she needs a younger dog who will play more.  I am not even sure we are allowed to have three dogs in a household.  Anyway—we’re checking it out.  I just want to thank you for taking care of me until Jane came along, and for helping her to settle me in.  I just love it here.  We all four of us—two dogs and one cat and one person—all sleep together on a very comfortable bed.  I live in the lap of ouxury, as a Queen should.  smile

    Bella, you deserve the life you now have.  I do remember you as Flora (that’s one good thing about some of the odd names ... we just never forget them), but much prefer Bella.  I’m very happy that Jane adopted you and if she is ever looking to add to the family, she knows where to come.
