Young Barney the Shepherd/Terrier Mix Is Ready to Be Your Sweetheart

Meet Barney, a 2-year-old male Shepherd/Terrier mix, he's our B101.7 Pet of the Week with the Humane Society of West Alabama!

Barney has a thick brown and black coat. He's a medium-sized dog, weighing about 30 pounds, and this is full-grown. Barney was pulled from our local animal shelter, where he was picked up as a stray and no one came to claim the poor boy after over a month of being there.

Barney is a very sweet, friendly, happy dog! Barney can be a little shy at first but quickly warms up.

The Humane Society notes that Barney loves to play and should make a great family dog. They believe he would be okay in an apartment, but only if he got daily walks. He will require a fenced in yard if left outside any unattended. Barney seems to do well with other dogs and should be fine with children 6 and older.

Crate training has been started, and Barney is up to date on his vet care, neutered, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is on heartworm and flea/tick prevention.

Let’s find this sweet fellow a wonderful new home, how about yours?
