My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I’m Barton, a 4-year-old terrier mix and all-around laid-back sweetheart.

I’m 50 pounds of precious. I’m well known for my heart-melting impersonation of a seal when I lay my ears back and sit for treats!

I came to the Humane Society as an owner-surrender along with a little chihuahua friend. I was in rough shape when I came to the rescue, missing fur on my tail and feet along with some small wounds.

It turns out that I have hypothyroidism, a condition easily treated with inexpensive medication. I’m such a good boy in taking my pills, too. The HSYC staff can tell you more about this manageable condition – and what an amazing recovery I’ve made!

I do best with small dogs but am learning to be friends with dogs my own size. I’m in foster care now, getting a break from the shelter, and I get along well with the resident dog.

I’m a very smart boy and a quick learner. It only took me a couple of days in my foster home to learn how to ask to go outside to do my business! I learn well from people and also from other dogs.

I do well on a leash and I’m an excellent car rider. I’m a laid-back, calm guy and I adapted quickly to learning house-manners in foster care. I do well on walks, but I’m just as happy to play with a ball in the yard between my naps on the couch.

I’ve been at the rescue for a year now and am ready to find my forever home.

I’m up to date on vaccines and preventions, neutered and microchipped.If you wish to meet me, please call the Humane Society of York County at (803)-802-0902 to schedule an appointment.
