Biography
Barnie with his BFF Fred were found as strays and taken to a local shelter. We pulled them from there. We think most likely the pair were purchased as cute, fuzzy pups and within a few months of life, put outside when they proved to be more trouble than they were worth. After all, house training and leash training and all the things are hard work. When you just want cute, fuzzy and adorable you don't want all the work that goes with it.
Barnie was so badly matted with months of long, unkempt hair that he has to be sedated to be shaved down. Unfortunately, because he was not introduced to grooming early, he still is a sedation groom to this day.
Barnie is well loved by his caregivers but we know he's not to be trusted. He is a touch me not. Since human physical touch was not part of his upbringing, he now has no interest in it. But Barnie is lovable. He is also an absolute character. His energy and his love of his ball are legendary. He hits the ground running in the morning and takes off into the yard every day with zest and gusto. His underbite smile makes all of us laugh every day.
Barnie loves his life at the poodle farm and we're glad we can give it to him.
Sponsorship
Can’t have a dog of your own? Have a soft spot for old, sick or hard to place dogs? It only takes a $20 a month donation for me to be your virtual dog! I need at least 10 virtual adopters (sponsors) to help cover my monthly costs. If I have medical challenges I need even more! The caregivers at Carolina Poodle Rescue will do the rest. Just think, without ever having to leave your home, you can have your very own online dog that will send you update emails, make Facebook posts, and be eternally grateful for your support!
