WHAT'S UP, DOC?!: Your Future Best Friend!

Doc, a red & white Heeler mix, isn’t just a smart pup—you can see the intelligence shining in his eyes! He’s eager to please, thrives on positive feedback, and has a big personality to match his big brain. Doc likes to take charge and can be a little assertive when meeting new dog friends, but with people? He’s all charm and tail wags!

Once he’s settled in, Doc is all about playtime and fun. With his high energy, he’ll need some training to help set boundaries, but don’t worry—he’s a quick learner! He already knows at least five basic commands, is housetrained, and crate-trained. Plus, he’s super food-motivated, so training with treats will be a breeze.

Doc hasn’t had much experience with cats or livestock, so a slow introduction would be best. He’ll likely thrive as the only dog in the home (at least at first), where he can soak up all the love and attention.

Ready to bring this brilliant, playful pup into your life? Call us at (406) 446-3500 or visit www.beartoothhumane.org to start your adoption journey! 🐶💕

Sydney adopted Birdie awhile back, and it sounds like this kitten has found her match! Here’s Birdie’s story: Birdie has definitely earned her name. Her favorite place is sitting on her people’s shoulder. Although she may be quite bashful at first when she warms up to someone, she is a HUGE LOVER. We haven’t been able to move without her trailing right behind us, nearly tripping us, or climbing up our pant leg. She has really exceeded our expectations, and we are so obsessed. Thank you!

REINTRODUCING Freya – Your Future Feline Queen!
Freya is a stunning five-year-old long-haired diluted calico with a dreamy mix of white, gray, and peach fur. This independent lady enjoys her space but shows affection on her own terms—just like a true queen!
As an indoor-only cat, Freya has experience living with other pets. She gets along well with cats but is a bit wary of dogs. She hasn’t been around young children and tends to be cautious around men.
Freya is in great health (minus a little extra fluff) and is fully up to date on her vaccinations. She is growing out her recent “Lion’s Cut” to freshen up her beautiful coat.
She would thrive in a quiet home, ideally as the only pet, with a patient and loving woman who can provide the calm, cozy life she adores.
Are you ready to give Freya the royal treatment? Apply to adopt her at www.beartoothhumane.org/adopt or call (406) 446-3500 to learn more!

REINTRODUCING LUCY AND LUKE: The Dynamic Duo!

Lucy is the confident leader of the pair, and her bond with Luke is unbreakable. They’ve grown up together and would make a perfect team in a loving home. Lucy is full of energy and loves going for long walks on a leash. She’s not interested in chasing livestock but hasn’t been around cats yet. She’d thrive in a home with older children, a large, securely fenced yard, and an owner who is committed to giving her daily walks.

Luke is a big, spirited dog who loves to run and play! Like Lucy, he’s gentle with livestock but hasn’t met many cats. Luke needs a home where he can burn off his energy with regular walks and a tall, secure fence. He’s a bit shy and hasn’t had much exposure to children, so he might need some extra patience to feel at home in a family environment. Could Lucy and/or Luke be the perfect addition to your family? Visit www.beartoothhumane.org/adopt, or give us a call at (406) 446-3500 to learn more.

We also have many other wonderful dogs and cats waiting for their forever homes! Check out all of our adoptable pets anytime at www.beartoothhumane.org/adopt.

Ullo, adopted by Pete and Bert Kaiser, shares his adoption story:
Hi my name is Ullo. My new family came to meet and greet me in April. My new mom picked me up and gave me some kisses. I tell you that was the first of oodles of kisses I get every day. My mom says I landed my butt in the buttercup. Not exactly sure what that means. Except we go hiking, camping, traveling, shopping, you name it, I am with them. My mom blames herself for the lack of crate training. I spent the first night in a kennel. It was okay. The second night she let me in bed. I fell asleep and she let me sleep all night long in bed. It has been like that ever since. She says I am such a good boy. My mom and dad taught me how to do my duties in the tall grass and sage. They would walk me out on a leash into the big back yard to show me where to go. Now that I am a “big man”, I can do it all by myself. They play ball toss with me to wear me out. I seem to have lots of energy, but they like it and I do too. My birthday is coming up soon and my mom has to schedule my neuter job. Not sure what that all entails, but I think it will be fine. They mention a cone, I think I might get ice cream!
