🚨 Exciting News! 🚨

Our very own Amanda Roos, Placement Manager at BAHS, will be speaking at the Best Friends National Conference in Palm Springs on February 20th! 🎤🐾

Her session, "Check Yourself: Catch Biases That Block Potential Adopters and Foster Volunteers," dives into the hidden barriers that may be keeping amazing adopters and fosters from helping pets in need.

🚫 No 6-foot fence? Doesn’t mean you’re a bad dog owner.
💰 No full-time job? Doesn’t mean you can’t afford vet care.
🏡 Don’t own a home? Doesn’t mean you can’t provide a loving forever home.

Too often, these biases prevent good people from adopting and fostering—ultimately hurting the animals we’re trying to save. Amanda will help fellow shelters and rescues identify and break down these barriers so we can place more pets in loving homes and move closer to no-kill goals!

Let’s cheer Amanda on as she shares her expertise on this crucial topic! 👏🐶🐱

Roseanne is red
And Blue is, well, blue.
Both pups are fantastic
and they can't wait to meet you!

Whether you are spending Valentines day with your sweetheart or riding solo this year- either of these pups would be happy to accompany you during your V-Day plans.

Roseanne- our hound mix, is a delightful girl who gets along well with anyone! Her heart is as big as her bark, and she is sure to tell you the stories of all her hysterical past Valentine's dates. Roseanne is the ulti-mutt girls girl who would love a galentine's day pal to get pawdicures, do face masks, and watch cheesy movies with.

Blue- the handsome pittie mix, is a charmer down to the bone. He's quick to pick up new friends anywhere he goes with his charismatic personality and good looks. Blue is always down to have a steak dinner with you, just save some ribeye for him! He'll chat you up, keep you laughing, and snuggle you all night long. I promise he won't leave you on read!

Both of these pups, and many more, are looking for their perfect homes, hopefully in time for Valentine's Day! Stop by to meet them anytime we are open, it's sure to be love at first sight.

It's FINALLY here, the last day of January!

We're not sure how you guys feel.... But we felt like this month was the longest year, ope I mean month, of our lives!

We're ready for the snow to melt and get our pups back out in playgroups. We're ready for warmer weather and longer days. We're feeling especially optimistic today and hope these feels carry us into the rest of the year.

So, if you're feeling wildly optimistic and frisky, stop in and adopt one of our many adoptable pups or kitties!

Blue is a goofy, fun-loving young man, approximately 3 years old, who’s always ready to brighten your day! With his playful energy and big heart, he’s the kind of dog who instantly puts a smile on your face.

This well-mannered gentleman has never met a stranger – he’s friendly with everyone and makes fast friends wherever he goes. Blue also gets along great with dogs of all sizes, so he’d be a fantastic addition to any home with furry companions.

Whether it’s a play session in the yard or a cuddle on the couch, Blue is up for anything as long as he’s with his people. If you’re looking for a loving, social pup to join your family, Blue is ready to meet you and become your new best friend!
