Story
**Meet Doc!** Doc is a sweet and loving boy who is looking for his forever home. He loves people and has a friendly personality but can be a bit picky when it comes to his dog friends, so introductions may be necessary to ensure they get along well.While Doc seems okay with dogs, he doesn't do well with young kids or cats, so a calm and quiet home would suit him best. He's eager for a caring owner who can dedicate time to train him and help him feel comfortable in his new surroundings. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little patience and understanding, Doc might be the perfect match for you! Come meet him and see if he's the right fit for your family!🐶 Adopting a Dog from BAHS 🐶All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and heartworm tested before going home.Please keep in mind that we cannot guarantee how a dog will do with children, other dogs, or cats.
