Sadly, Belle was surrendered by a dealer who refused to put the time and money into her medical needs. She came with swelling on both sides of her face alongside her upper cheek teeth. She also has a deep tunnel beside two of her upper teeth which get packed with rotting food. X-rays show the tunnels leading directly up to infected tooth roots. Both of these infected teeth need to be removed. However, due to Belle's young age, these extractions will be complicated. Her roots are still forming and they are thin and fragile, so they're easy to break when pulling the teeth. These fragments can lead to serious complications if not removed. We've enlisted the expertise of a board-certified dental specialist veterinarian. Belle had an appointment with her at the Tufts Veterinary School Hospital on Monday, February 10th, 2025 where she had one of the teeth removed and she will return again March 10th, 2025 to have the second one removed. Belle will not be available for adoption until her medical needs are met and she is healthy. At that point we will be very excited to find this young, beautiful girl her forever home!
