Additional info:

Barney is a very sweet, gentle boy who wanted out of the shelter more than anything. He is a complete cuddlebug who looks like a little teddy bear. He'll make the perfect lap dog, and companion. When he came to us, he found a small bag and crawled inside and sat in it for over an hour. He obviously was a purse dog at some point. He sleeps well in his crate. He was a little growly with another dog but we think that he was just unsettled by his shelter experience and the discomfort from neutering. He has a little leash aggression towards other dogs when walking but we are working with him on this. He is ready for his forever home right now.
