Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 2-year-old Betty Lou.

Here is Baypath’s description of Betty Lou:

“Betty Lou has never met a stranger — everyone is an immediate friend! She is such a staff favorite and we love it when she helps us with office work. She just quietly explores the office, finds a bed and curls up in the sun. She truly loves to just spend time with people. She is one of the sweetest girls we know.

“Betty is a perfect walking buddy and loves to sniff everything on the trail. She is a very playful girl and loves chasing toys. When we play with her she tries to ‘talk.’ It is a cute playful hound language that makes everyone laugh.

Betty is very smart and food motivated! She can’t wait to continue training. She even loves nose work and has worked with a trainer!

Betty may do well living in a home with dogs, cats and kids. She would do best in a quiet area (she can be reactive to lots of cars going by and may react to dogs — we have only had her meet a few and she can be selective). A family with some dog experience would be advantageous. She is going to make her family so happy!”
