About Bj

Bj is a sweet, three-year-old hound looking for a patient and loving home. Weighing in at 43 lbs, he’s nervous around new people and unfamiliar situations, so he’ll need some time to adjust. Bj’s previous life didn’t provide him the kindness he deserves, and he’s heartworm positive, which means he’ll be fostered until his treatment is complete. He gets along with other dogs and is altered and vaccinated, making him ready for the right home. If you think you can provide the love and patience he needs, reach out today for more details. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
