Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Barney is a 1 and 1/2 yr. old Maltese/Poodle mix who is an amazing dog that deserves an amazing family. He is an active young fella who loves to run around, roll for fun, but mostly enjoys spending endless hours with his family whether that means going for long walks/jogs, following you around the house to make sure he's up-to-date on all that's happening, or simply sitting by your side at the couch or on it if you let him. He is cautious when meeting new people but he quickly becomes devoted to and protective of those he loves. Even though he takes a bit of time to warm up to people and other dogs, once he does, he makes friends for life. He really enjoys playing with another dog and would love to have a brother or sister in his new family. At his foster family, he learned to sit, lie down, roll, and shake hand within a week. Barney is always open to receiving more treats and not picky about his food. He is a fast learner. Generally doesn't bark unless letting you know that someone's at the door. He loves car rides, as long as he’s allowed to be free and not crated.
Barney is truly a joy to have around and would be best for a couple or a family that has plenty of time to give to him. He'd be a good friend to take to work with you as well as he always prefers to be with his people rather than crated at home alone.
He is neutered, crate trained, house trained, great on a leash, good with other dogs, cautious with people at first, quick learner, treat motivated.
