Story
Hello, my name is Barbie Anne, or as my foster mom affectionately calls me, Barbie Girl. My favorite thing in the world is belly rubs. I’ll happily lie there for hours if you give me a good belly rub. My foster brother, Rudy, is my best friend. He’s my size, and we’re inseparable. However, my other fur siblings are much larger than me. My foster dad calls me “baby girl,” and that makes my heart swell with joy.
I’m protective of my territory and my foster family. I may bark and growl, but don’t let that fool you; I’m a gentle soul. I require slow introductions to people, as I have a lot of energy and love to run and play. My mom gives me medication to help manage my anxiety, and I’m doing very well on it.
However, I would do better in a home with fewer people coming and going. I get very nervous and react by barking, urinating, and growling. It takes me a minute to warm up to humans.
My life took a sudden turn when my owner passed away, and they didn’t find us for a few days. We were then placed in the Memphis Animal Shelter, where we stayed for two weeks before being rescued by a rescue organization.
When I get overstimulated, I need to be in my crate in a quiet, dark room. I’m a fluffy toy destroyer, so I love chewing on my super chewer toys.
Please give me a place to call my forever home.
