🐕‍🦺Arlo is a 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer mix with the perfect balance of energy, intelligence, and sweetness.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒He’s great with kids and other dogs, making him an awesome companion for an active family.

🤓Arlo is a smart boy who walks beautifully on a leash and loves being included in adventures.

🎾This handsome guy thrives when he has space to run, play, and burn off his energy, so a home with a yard or an active lifestyle would be ideal.

❣️While Arlo has lots of love to give, he would do best in a home without cats.

❣️If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and fun-loving best friend, Arlo may be your perfect match!

Meet Tootsie Roll!
Just like her sweet name, Tootsie Roll is a big bundle of love ready to melt your heart. This beautiful 6-year-old Dogue de Bordeaux has recently completed her heartworm treatment and is officially ready to start the next chapter of her life—with a family of her very own.
Tootsie Roll is all about love, cuddles, and spending time with her favorite people. Whether it’s relaxing on the couch, soaking up attention, or leaning in for affection, she’s happiest when she’s close to those she loves.
She’s kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and would make a wonderful companion for a family looking for a loyal and affectionate best friend. The only thing on Tootsie’s wish list is a cat-free home, as cats just aren’t her cup of tea.
After everything she’s been through, Tootsie Roll deserves a forever home where she can be spoiled with all the love, belly rubs, and snuggles she can handle. If you’re looking for a gentle giant with a heart as big as her adorable face, Tootsie Roll may be the perfect match for you!
Come meet Tootsie Roll and see why everyone falls in love with her. https://www.bartholomewhumane.org/adoptable-dogs

Let's make a difference together! 🎉 For our 60th Anniversary Year, we are setting an ambitious goal of 60 new BCHS Buddies by the end of 2026! 💪

BCHS Buddies are committed monthly donors that help cover the shelter's costs for food, medical care, and amenities.

Did you know that we spend over $90,000 annually on food, treats, and similar supplies? Every year we also spend over $30,000 on vital amenities like water, AC, heat, and another $75,000 on lifesaving medical care. 🌟 These costs add up, and having dependable monthly donors like you make all the difference.

Help us reach our goal today: https://www.bartholomewhumane.org/bchsbuddy
