BartI have been named Bart as in Black Bart the gentleman robber of the Old West. The name is proving to be a good one for me. I LOVE food! I must confess that I am a counter surfer and if there is food on a table, especially a low one, I will very quietly sneak up so you don’t notice me and help myself. When my foster Mom tells me that I am a bad dog and I shouldn’t do that I try very hard to look sorry but did I tell you I LOVE food? Other than that I have turned out to be a very good, happy go lucky, kind of guy. I usually have two toys in my mouth at the same time and when my tail wags my whole body wiggles. I was picked up as a stray and turned over to L.E.A.R.N. by a kill shelter. I am at least 5 years old and have now learned to be a good housedog. My foster brother and I play once in awhile but not very often although we get along very well. As you can see by one of my pictures I like to just sit in the yard and watch the world go by. I even sit to eat my meals! If you are looking for a dog to play ball with I am not your guy. If I bring it back to you twice it is really something. I would rather lay in the yard and chew on it. I am very laid back and just enjoy lying around chewing on a bone. I love to go places and am very quiet in the car. I do know some commands and have learned how to sit and wait for food and treats. I stay in the crate when my foster Mom goes to work but I have the run of the house when she does errands and at night when I sleep on a dog bed on the bedroom floor. I do seem to have some sort of allergies because I nibble on my feet and lower legs. The doctor gave me an itchy shot and that helped a lot. My wish for a forever home is one that just wants a companion, a good buddy and someone to go on walks with and give me belly rubs. Those are the best! I am also a good watchdog and when I hear something I will go to investigate what it might be. You must love kisses too. I sure hope there is someone out there just right for me!
