My story

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

Soprano is a strikingly handsome boy with a gaze that seems to look right into your soul. While he may be a little nervous at first, give him some time and you’ll see his loving and affectionate side. In no time at all, he’ll be cuddled up to you asking for butt scratches! Soprano is a good boy on his leash and constantly check ins with his person on walks. Soprano seems to be housetrained here at the shelter and knows “sit.” He is perfectly happy with a treat or affection for rewarding his good behavior!

Soprano enjoys playing chase with his dog pals. He requests to meet any potential doggie roommates to be sure they are a good match.

***Due to a recent increase in respiratory illnesses, BARCS is temporarily suspending meet-and-greets with resident dogs. Once these resume, Soprano will be able to meet your resident dog. In the meantime, he can only be adopted into a home with no other dogs. ***

If you’re looking for a loyal friend who just needs a little patience to show his true colors, Soprano might be the perfect match for you! Come to BARCS to meet Soprano or one of his friends!

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

Address: 2490 Giles Road, Baltimore, MD 21225

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. See below 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.

**Please note: Animals listed on our adoption pages may still be on stray hold and pending reunion with their owners, or have an existing pending adoption application.

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.
