My story

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

This petite sweetheart weighs in at just 46lbs but packs an enormous amount of love and personality into that compact frame. With the cutest ears you've ever seen and a heart full of joy, Indigo is ready to steal your heart.

Indigo's favorite pastime? Zooming around the yard and chasing after toys with unbridled enthusiasm! She's a pro at fetch and loves nothing more than a good game of tug of war. But don't let her playful nature fool you-Indigo is also a quick learner. She's already mastered "sit" and is eager to learn more tricks, especially if treats are involved!

Speaking of treats, Indigo is the epitome of gentleness when taking them. With her calm demeanor and sweet disposition, she's a joy to be around both in and out of her kennel. In her foster home, she's discovered a love for plush toys, snuggling up with her human, and playing with her favorite treat-dispensing ball. Enrichment toys and games? She's all in!

Indigo is housebroken and walks like a dream on a leash. While she's still getting used to crate training, she's making great progress. She's a smart cookie who's eager to please, making training sessions a breeze.

When it comes to canine companions, Indigo prefers polite playmates. She kindly requests to meet any potential doggy roommates to ensure they're a good match. After all, she's looking for friends who share her zest for life and love of play.

If you're searching for a loyal companion who's equal parts playful and affectionate, look no further than Indigo. With her enthusiastic prance and heart of gold, she's sure to bring endless joy to your life. Come meet Indigo today and get ready to embark on the adventure of a lifetime together!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

BARCS takes in new animals in need of a loving home every day. The pictures above only represent a portion of the animals that are available for adoption at any given time. Some animals get adopted immediately and their photos never make it onto our website—which is wonderful! If you don’t see what you are looking for, please visit our shelter to meet your perfect match today! Adoption fees are $75; however, we offer several adoption packages listed here. Our adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 2-6 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Step 1: Check out the adoptable cats, dogs and small companion animals listed on our website. Animals with a blue “I’m in Foster” banner are not currently in our shelter. Check www.barcs.org for our adoption process for animals in foster homes.

Step 2: Visit our shelter during adoption hours (Monday-Friday 2-6 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday 11 a.m.-4 p.m.). When you arrive, you will first be asked to fill out our Shelter Adoption Application with your information. You may also pre-fill our Shelter Adoption Application ahead of time online to save time when you are at the shelter. Your application will be processed after you meet the animal.

Step 3: Tour our adoption rooms and write down the names of animals that you would like to meet. A volunteer or staff member will help you meet your chosen animals to make a match!

Step 4: When you have selected the right animal for you, our Adoptions Team will run your Adoption Application for approval. Once your application is approved, you will participate in an adoption class where you will learn all of the details about your new adopted family member, including their known history and medical records.

What else to expect: Animals who are already spayed/neutered and past their stray hold (if applicable) can often go home with you the same day. Pick-up arrangements for unaltered animals and/or animals still on a stray hold will be made during your adoption class.

More about this shelter

BARCS is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization operating Maryland’s largest animal shelter and pet adoption center. We are an open admission shelter, granting refuge to every abandoned, neglected, abused, lost or surrendered animal that comes through our door. A staggering 30 or more animals are surrendered to BARCS every day. No matter what the circumstance, we do not turn away any animal in need of shelter, food, medical care and a loving touch. Yearly, this equates to more than 12,000 dogs, cats, kittens, puppies, and even wildlife and exotic animals that need care and placement.
