Barkley is a 3-year-old, large Lab mix with a soft spot for close human connection. Sweet and affectionate, she quickly bonds with the adults in her life and never passes up a good cuddle or hug. Barkley is housebroken, knows how to sit, and makes an easy travel buddy for car rides, so sliding her into your daily routine is a breeze. She shines with people who give her attention and thrives as a loyal companion—don’t be surprised if she follows you everywhere just to stay close. Barkley needs a home without small children, as she’s sensitive with her body and prefers a calmer space where she feels safe and respected. Introductions to other dogs should be done thoughtfully; she can make canine friends with the right start, as proven by her successful meet and greet with a neighbor’s dog. Her time in foster care showed everyone just how delightful she is in a home—her foster parent raved about her manners and gentle, loving nature. She enjoys going to work with her person and making friends wherever she goes. Her favorites? Cozy snuggles, showing off her playful side, and soaking in any affection you have to give. Barkley’s the kind of dog that wants to be someone’s everyday best friend—sweet, devoted, and easy to live with. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
