🚨Help us find Blue Bell!🚨

Blue Bell was “rescued” by Jane Hullsiek of Humane Society of the Dunes on January 14, 2020. She was originally at Indianapolis Animal Care Services and IACS Shelter Rescue Team before Jane took her.

She was rescue only at the Indy shelter because she was very depressed after both of her owners died a short time apart, and she ended up at the shelter. She was very sad and not interested in much of anything at IACS. Additionally, she had many masses on her body, and her teeth were in bad shape. She would need more medical care than IACS could provide. Indy’s Voice 4 Animals had pledged money for Blue Bell, to be paid directly to the vet of whichever rescue took her from IACS, and they shared her on their page.

The day after she took Blue Bell, Jane posted on the Humane Society of the Dunes Facebook page that Blue Bell was doing great and eating like a little piggy. The photos she shared were taken on the rug in her pole barn (“shelter”). This rug was shown in photos taken by IACS during their 2023 inspection of the barn in which no animals were present. This was the only time Blue Bell was ever posted on the Humane Society of the Dunes Facebook page. In a later comment, Jane stated that Blue Bell had been adopted and was well-loved, after having three surgeries and that she walked to the bus stop every morning with her owner and two sisters.

If you adopted Blue Bell, please reach out. We are offering $200* for proof of Blue Bell’s whereabouts and a short conversation. She’d be about 12 years old now. In a few days, we will no longer be offering monetary incentives to provide proof so if you know something, please reach out to us.

  • *$100 from the admin of this page, $100 from a generous supporter.
