"Hi, guys! I came all the way from Virginia for a change of scenery in hopes of finding my forever family. I'm one amazing dog, and the shelter at BHS can confirm this. I do have a lot of energy, but that is masked by how sweet and goofy I am. I ask that you take me for a long hike every day to help keep my energy down. Please come to see me; I would really love a home! Read more about me here!"
