My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You know those dogs you meet with giant heads you can’t wait to squish. Well our Barney would be the perfect candidate for best squish. He is a gorgeous one year old, brindle Mastiff mix, who is as goofy and silly as they come. Barney loves being outside, and can’t wait to go play, or roll around in our yards. He adores company in the yards and we have been looking for a pup who can match his energy. While he loves playing with other dogs, Barney does have some health concerns that have limited his play time and partners. He does need a harness when walking as pressure on his trachea does cause him to cough, sounding like grumbling, even if it’s not. He also has Hip Dysplasia which has him putting in a bit more effort than his counterparts when out and about. This doesn’t stop him though, as he is still young and full of energy. He is always excited when he gets a new toy, and has shown us his defluffing skills on his stuffies. He is not very treat motivated and does better with positive reinforcement. He is happy to roll over and get belly rubs, or try to lay down in your lap. He has no clue how big he actually is!
Barney would make a wonderful addition to any family, looking for a sweet, playful, silly big dog. If you are interested in meeting this handsome boy, please fill out an adoption application (no commitment) at Satchelslastresort.org.

More about this rescue

Satchel's Last Resort is a no-kill animal shelter/sanctuary whose mission is to Rescue, Rehab and Rehome dogs and cats with nowhere else to go because of breed, behavior or medical issues.

Each resident that comes to Satchel’s has its own unique and personal history. We get to know each one individually – favorite toy, favorite game, favorite foods. The dogs are housed in an airy shelter with spacious kennels, take three or four romps in the playard or walks per day, and even take car rides to let their fur flap in the wind. Cats are housed in two open cat room settings and receive social interaction with staff and volunteers every day. Most important to us -- we keep our dogs and cats safe from other residents and from humans who may want to harm them.

Trainers work with the dogs a few times a week to teach them that they can trust humans and other animals. Staff and volunteers work with our cats to keep them socialized or help them learn to trust again. We actively seek forever homes tailored to the needs of every individual pet so that they can live the rest of their lives among a family of their own.

At Satchel’s Last Resort, we believe that by harnessing the unconditional love that the dogs and cats in our sanctuary put forth everyday, the world becomes a brighter place for animals and people. Each and everyday we try to give a little of their love back – back to the pets and back to our community.
