Frida is a masterpiece in her own right&#44 and with this clever girl by your side&#44 everything takes on a more vibrant&#44 colorful palate. Just like her namesake&#44 the artist Frida Kahlo&#44 this pup is an independent soul. Frida is a go-getter who is looking for a partner who shares her adventurous spirit.

Shes a smarty who has already mastered the basic cues and is eager to keep learning with you. <br/><br/>While Frida may not be able to join you at the VMFA exhibit&#44 shes ready to settle into her own personal exhibition in an adoptive home. And she does have one artistic demand: shes looking for a solo show. If you have an adult-only home without other pets&#44 shes prepared to be the one and only pièce de résistance in your life.

Story
This dog, we believe, belonged to a neighbor of ours who just disappeared one day and never came back. The dog showed up at our doorstep and my wife felt the need to try to take care of him as he was emaciated. We have tried but are moving and can’t take him with us. He does not bite, bark but licks though. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and is pretty old so lays around a lot.

Story
Are you looking for a pup who’s equal parts spunky and snuggly? Meet Bertie—an adorable little lady who approaches life with boundless enthusiasm and just the right amount of goofball energy. 🐾💕 Bertie is very toy-motivated (her motto might as well be “will work for squeakers”) and will do just about anything for a little praise. But when the zoomies are over, nothing beats curling up for snuggles with her humans. To her, it’s the “bestest” thing in the whole wide world. 🥰 She’s got pep, charm, and enough love to fill your home and your heart. Bertie also adores chasing squirrels and birds (as one does), and playing with other pups—so if you’ve got a doggy buddy for her, even better! Bertie would absolutely love a fenced backyard where she can safely chase her imaginary squirrels and soak up the sunshine. ☀️🐿️ If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, adventure-loving cuddle bug with a heart of gold, Bertie is your girl. Adopt her today—because the only thing she’s missing is you. 💛 Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.
