Squishy, splooty, and spectacularly unbothered, this is Barney. A low-riding, soft-hearted gentleman with a built-in off switch and a very serious commitment to comfort. Barney is estimated to be around 4 years old and weighs about 60 lbs. He looks like a bulldog/staffie mix with that perfectly smooshy, huggable build, but as always, rescue rules apply... breed and birthday are our best guess. Barney has mastered the art of being chill. His foster describes him as easygoing, affectionate, and wonderfully low-key. He lives with multiple dogs of all sizes and ages and gets along beautifully with everyone, happily coexisting and minding his own business. Barney doesn't need the spotlight. He's more of a "I'll be right here if you need me" kind of companion. He's confident and loving with people, happy to accept affection. He greets the world with a calm curiosity, takes everything in stride, and if something isn't his vibe, he simply turns away and carries on.
Ideal Home
Barney would thrive in a home that appreciates a slower pace and doesn't expect playful, high-energy antics. He would do best in a home without lots of stairs due to his sturdy build and low-to-the-ground frame. A cat-free home is a must. He's a perfect companion for a retired couple or a quiet home with a comfy couch.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Barney is perfectly house-trained and trustworthy. Crates aren't his favorite, but his foster has found that giving him freedom and comfort works beautifully for him.
