About Barney

Meet Barney! He’s one of three little Flintstones, and like his friends, he’s had a rocky start to life. Left neglected and starving, Barney and his pals were found in dire condition, but they are now safe and thriving in foster care. Born in early June, he is a young Shepherd mix full of energy and spirit. Barney is searching for an active family ready to embrace puppy antics, training, and plenty of adventure. He gets along well with kids, dogs, and even cats, making him a versatile addition to any home. Now that he’s on the path to recovery, Barney deserves all the love, belly rubs, and comfort a forever home can provide. Could your home be the Bedrock he dreams of? Ready to adopt?
