BARCS Adoptable Dogs: Meet Betsy Ross

Hi friends! My name’s Betsy Ross. You may know Betsy Ross as the historical woman who sewed America’s first flag; I promise to make history by being the most loving dog you’ve ever known!I’m 7-years-old, but don’t let my age fool you—I can still romp around with the best of them. In fact, I LOVE going on walks and exploring the world around me! There’s just so much to sniff out there. When I’m ready to settle down for the evening, you can find me relaxing on the back porch or a comfortable sofa.
