This is not Belle’s first appearance in Rescue Me as she’s been in Derby RSPCA Rescue Centre for over two months now. Community manager Karen Carter said: “She arrived with her eight puppies who have now all been adopted so it’s time for her to go to a new home. She doesn’t like other dogs or cats and she would be best re-homed with children over the age of 15. We believe she has had a difficult past but she does have a lovely temperament, which she shows once she gets to know you and trusts you.”
