On June 8, 2013, I and a couple of my doggie pals were taken from DeKalb County Animal Services, where we had been hanging out, to a very fun event called Pick-A-Pit at Chastain Park. There were lots of dogs there and people came to look at us. I had a lot of fun playing with my buddies and I met some awesome new puppies, too! My mommy's friend asked her to take care of me at the event. What my mo
mmy didn't know is that I already knew from the minute I saw her that I was going to adopt her and we were going to have the best life ever!!!! She couldn't stop thinking about me and the next day, she came back to the shelter and took me home with her! Lots of people ask my mommy how I got my name. Well, SOME people say I am a drama queen. When people pay attention to me, I flop over on my back and show them my belly. It's really just because I want belly rubs. Anyway, at Charm School one day, someone said Mommy should name me after a Shakespearean character because of that. Mommy first thought of Hamlet, then Romeo (which became my middle name), but thought those were kind of corny. Then she thought of the word "bard." But that's just a silly name. And then she thought "BART!" She said "Bart" out loud and I turned my head to look at her. And that's how I got by name!
