Hi, I’m Parsa – 7 years young, full of sass, and absolutely ready to be your adventure buddy! I’m a mixed breed, which basically means I’m a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Some people say I’m “dog reactive,” but I prefer to think of myself as selective of who I want to be my friend! I don’t hand out tail wags to just anyone, thank you very much.
What I do hand out? Love and attention. Lots of it. I need someone who is home pretty much all the time, because I thrive when I’m with my person and being included in everyday life. I could be open to another canine friend in the home if you take proper, slow introductions - that’s what the BHS training department is for!
My hobbies? Oh, I have plenty. I adore long hikes—bonus points if there’s a mountain view. I leap through tall grass like I’m starring in my own action movie. I squeak my toys until they surrender. And after I’ve conquered the day, I’m all about those cozy cuddles, ear scratches, and belly rubs.
I’ll be honest: I’m a bit of a challenging gal who needs the right person—someone experienced, patient, and ready to give a sassy sweetheart a real chance. But above all, I love my people fiercely.
If you’re someone who enjoys the outdoors, appreciates a big personality, and wants a loyal, goofy, deer-jumping cuddlebug at your side, I’m your girl.
Let’s make life one big, muddy, happy adventure—together!
Interested in adopting me? We recommend submitting a general online adoption application and then heading to the shelter during our normal adoption hours to meet our available animals. Please note: all applications are considered general until the animal has been met. If you have any questions, please contact animalcenter@bmorehumane.org or 410-833-8848 Ext/Opt 2.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Baltimore County, now known as the Baltimore Humane Society (BHS), was founded in 1927 by a pioneering and compassionate socialite named Elsie Seeger Barton (1886-1983).
In 1902, at age 16, Miss Seeger was stricken with rheumatic fever and was confined to her bed. During that time, her constant companions were the family’s beloved pets. It was at that time that Ms. Seeger resolved to devote her life to the care and humane treatment of companion and service animals. When she became well, she established a refuge for abused and homeless animals on her family’s estate, known as “Thistle Top” on Milford Road in Pikesville, MD, overlooking Gwynn’s Falls Dam. In 1908 she married Bolling Walker Barton, Jr., President of Barton, Duet & Koch Paper Company.
