My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there! Peaches here! I am a sweet, affectionate girl who looks forward to hanging out with my new forever family! I`m a little nervous when you first meet me, but if you go slowly, and let me get used to you, I will crawl up into your lap for some cuddles! You will know I love you when I try to hug you! I can`t wait to go to school to learn all the cool stuff humans would like me to know about. I`m a pretty quick learner! I love making new dog friends here at BHS and with the proper introduction and the right dog, I may be open to having a doggie roommate.

Interested in adopting me? I am in a foster home, so we recommend filling out a general application, having it processed then setting up a meet with the shelter and foster. We`ll work with you and the foster to find the best time to meet me.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of Baltimore County, now known as the Baltimore Humane Society (BHS), was founded in 1927 by a pioneering and compassionate socialite named Elsie Seeger Barton (1886-1983).

In 1902, at age 16, Miss Seeger was stricken with rheumatic fever and was confined to her bed. During that time, her constant companions were the family’s beloved pets. It was at that time that Ms. Seeger resolved to devote her life to the care and humane treatment of companion and service animals. When she became well, she established a refuge for abused and homeless animals on her family’s estate, known as “Thistle Top” on Milford Road in Pikesville, MD, overlooking Gwynn’s Falls Dam. In 1908 she married Bolling Walker Barton, Jr., President of Barton, Duet & Koch Paper Company.
