About Bartholomew

Meet Bartholomew, or Bart for short! This little ball of energy tips the scales at just 5 lbs, showing that great things do come in fun-sized packages. Bart’s journey has been tough, but he’s ready to bounce back and find his forever home. He’s the life of the party, always eager for playtime with toys and quick to explore every corner. Climbing is his specialty, making him look like a tiny mountain goat as he tackles any obstacle. Bart loves people and is a professional cuddle bug but needs a watchful eye during playtime with other dogs since he still doesn’t know how to defend himself. At nighttime, he might grumble a bit about the crate but will settle down quickly and sleep soundly through the night. As a young pup, he’ll need to attend training sessions with a certified trainer within 90 days of adoption. Your new best friend is waiting, so don’t hesitate!
