Barkley

Hi! I'm Barkley and I didn't come into the shelter looking this sleek and handsome (I was handsome - just not THIS handsome). I went straight into foster so I could get some 'meat on my bones' which is exactly what happened. I am now a healthy 62 lbs., love dogs and humans, and was potty trained within 2 days (I use the dog door like a champ.) I am very food motivated (I was actually starving prior to rescue) and guard my food a bit- I'm getting better after only 3 weeks. I play really great with the other 2 dogs in the house and share toys without issue. I am learning not to jump on everyone when I meet them (I am just so darn excited to meet you!). I have met small dogs too without issue. I did almost take out foster moms knee with my hard head when running into the house (I didn't see her...sorry and she's fine btw) so a house with older kids if you have any would be better for everyone. I have a bit of separation anxiety and am learning that the humans do return - so I will settle down after making a little ruckus. The hairdryer is a demon - you can't tell me otherwise. I need someone who understands I am strong and still need ongoing training support but I am a super awesome doggo - won't you let me show you?
