Collette - Fostered in Omaha

Meet Collette: The Couch-Diving Beagle Extraordinaire<br/><br/>Some dogs dream of chasing squirrels or conquering agility courses. Collette, however, has mastered a different kind of athleticism — the graceful, full-body couch dive.<br/><br/>This slightly plump 8 year old beagle beauty is currently working on her fitness goals, but don't worry — she's in no rush. Collette believes self-improvement should be done at a comfortable pace, ideally from a soft surface.<br/><br/>Her happy places are simple: her cozy kennel and the couch next to her favorite human. If you call her from her kennel, she'll come running full speed across the room — only to launch herself onto the couch in a perfect belly flop of joy. It's equal parts adorable and hilarious, and she absolutely knows it.<br/><br/>Despite her dramatic entrances, Collette is a gentle, timid soul. Loud noises and small children make her nervous, so she's looking for a calm, quiet home where she can relax and feel safe. Once she trusts you, she'll melt right into your side and happily accept all the pets and belly rubs you're willing to give.<br/><br/>Collette is wonderfully crate-trained — her kennel is her happy place. She eats there, naps there, and even tucks herself in at night without complaint. In fact, she prefers it that way; being loose in the house overnight makes her uneasy. Mealtime, however, brings out her sassy side — if she thinks dinner service is running late, she'll let you know with a few indignant beagle barks.<br/><br/>This lovely girl has also faced some health challenges with grace and courage. Collette previously had mammary tumors removed, and while she's doing great now, she'll need regular checkups to make sure she stays that way. She takes it all in stride — as long as the vet has treats.<br/><br/>Collette would do best in a peaceful home with someone patient, gentle, and maybe a little bit of a homebody. She doesn't need long hikes or loud adventures — just a comfy couch, a kind heart, and the occasional snack (healthy ones, of course — she's watching her figure).<br/><br/>If you're looking for a loyal companion who will make you laugh, warm your heart, and occasionally beat you to the best spot on the sofa, Collette might just be the beagle of your dreams.<br/><br/>If interested in Collette, please fill out an application at www.bassetandbeagle.org. Her adoption fee is $300.00
