Bartholomew is the kind of dog who makes you slow down—in the best way.At 13+ years old, this handsome flat-coated retriever mix has traded in puppy chaos for something much sweeter: quiet companionship, gentle tail wags, and a heart that’s completely devoted to his people. His glossy black coat is beautifully dusted with a “sugar face,” a sign of a life well-lived and so much love still to give.Bartholomew is a happy old man through and through. He greets each day with a calm, content spirit and a soft enthusiasm that’s impossible not to fall for. He knows how to sit (a true gentleman!) and is always eager to please—especially if there’s a cozy spot nearby where he can relax afterward.He’s recently had his teeth cleaned, is neutered, and is ready to settle into a home where he can enjoy the good life. Because his hearing isn’t what it used to be, Bartholomew would do best in a quieter home where sudden noises and lots of commotion won’t startle him. He’d be happiest with older, respectful kids who understand that he’s in his golden years and deserves a gentle touch.What Bartholomew really wants is simple: a soft bed, kind humans, and a peaceful place to spend his days. In return, he’ll give you steady companionship, unconditional love, and the kind of quiet joy only a senior dog can bring.If you’ve been waiting for a loyal, loving soul to share your home and your heart, Bartholomew is ready to meet you.If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.My adoption fee is $100.
