I’m called Lil’ Dude, but my foster mom likes to call me Iggy, short for Igor. I guess it’s because of my adorable smile. What makes me smile? Cuddling! I love snuggling with my foster mom. She calls me a big giant baby. Ooo, and cheese. Cheese always makes me smile! I’m learning a lot from my foster big sister - I can now sit, come, go bedtime, and sometimes even stay! I’m even 95% potty trained - I can stay home for 5 - 6 hrs without having an accident, but if I can’t hold it, I know how to use a pee pad. My foster uncle says I’ve come a long way and would be the perfect dog for someone who can keep helping me with my manners. Oh, and if they have a fenced-in yard where I can jump and smell?! That would be doggie heaven! I might be open to a new friend, if you have someone you`d like me to meet. I can`t promise we will be best buddies but I would be open to meeting a friend and we can go from there.

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.
