Bart
Meet Bart, a 3-year-old, black-and-white collie mix weighing 60 pounds. He’s a staff and volunteer favorite who had a bit of a rough past but is being been spoiled here. He rides great in the car, and as long as you take him outside regularly, he does all his business outside. He gets along with most other dogs, but he might need to be supervised while playing with them because sometimes he gets a little too energetic. If you already have dogs, please bring them to meet him to see if they get along well. He mainly just wants to be near his human or at least be able to see you when he’s lounging on his dog bed. He loves to cuddle with people, and he walks well on a leash. Sometimes loud noises scare him, but he knows you’ll stay right next to him if he hears any of those while you are
on your walks. Bart has been neutered, microchipped and has received all age-appropriate vaccinations. #135109
