My story

Bart, neutered male, 2Year 4months old, 28 Lbs. If you would like to give BART a forever home, please contact abetterchancerescue@gmail.com OR log onto abetterchancerescue.org to fill out online application Bart is one of the best dogs we have fostered. He has a striking appearance and a relatively smaller build. He is docile, calm, but can also be lively and playful; he loves belly rubs and hugs when around familiar faces. He is super mellow and well behaved by nature. He likes food and toys, and is willing to share with others. Bart rides well in the car and enjoys resting near his humans quietly. He can easily befriend strangers and is very gentle with kids. Bart also gets along well with other dogs and cats. He is potty trained and crate trained. His favorite pastime is the daily walks and hanging out with play pals in the park. He would be a great candidate for family looking for a loyal companion pet as well as a superb hiking partner. Bart’s rescue story: In central western Taiwan, near an industrial park, Bart and his seven other siblings were wandering about. There were no food and water in sight, except the occasional feeding by volunteers. With highway and storm drainage ditch nearby, it was a precarious environment for these young pups. When the rescuer saw the posting for help by volunteer, she responded immediately.
