About Bart

Meet Bart, your loyal shadow and professional snuggler. At 7 years old, this American Pitty Mix weighs in at 65 lbs of pure love. Bart is the kind of best friend you didn’t know you needed. He’s crate trained, leash trained, and potty trained, with a knack for following directions — total people pleaser! This gentle fellow sticks close, whether he's curled up beside you on the couch or tagging along as you move about the house. His affectionate nature makes him a perfect cuddly companion. Car rides are a true joy for Bart, especially when they lead to parks or involve tasty pup cups. He loves playing with stuffed toys and bones and enjoys relaxing on cozy naps. Although still playful at 7, he’s generally low energy and rarely barks. Bart suits households with older children aged 12 and up, as loud young kids can be a bit overwhelming for him. He gets along well with calm, low-energy dogs. While he has shared space with a 6-year-old female pitty and a 2-year-old bulldog, slow introductions are crucial. Unfortunately, he cannot live with cats or rabbits. This sweet boy does experience anxiety if left alone in a kennel for longer than five hours, so a work-from-home setup would be ideal for him. His new home will need a secure fence and a sturdy crate to keep him safe. If you’re after a loyal companion who loves to cuddle, Bart is ready to light up your life!
