In the shelter’s words
Barney Dog friendly LOVESSSS people and absolutely thrives on attention Not a jumper — no surprise tackles Very treat motivated (the way to this boy's heart is through his stomach!) Loves car rides Crate trained cats are unknown Barney had a rough start in life. After his owners moved, he was left behind, chained to barrels, and underweight. Thankfully, an amazing Good Samaritan stepped in, took him in, fed him, gave him a safe place to stay, and showed him the love he always deserved. Despite everything he went through, Barney hasn't let his past steal his sweetness. All he wants is love, attention, and a chance to show off that happy tail! This boy is proof that even after people let you down, you can still have a whole lot of love to give. Barney has already overcome so much. Now he's ready for his next chapter: a forever home where he'll never be left behind again. He deserves a family who will love him, spoil him, and remind him every day that he's finally home. Who's ready to bring this handsome hunk home? If you are interested, complete the Adoption Application on our website at www.NeedyPaws.org and we will contact you. Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Barney’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip. We are a 100% foster-based rescue and all of our dogs live in approved foster homes. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will perform home visits and conduct veterinarian and reference checks for each potential adopter.

Adopters will complete an adoption application which is sent to the dog's foster parent. Their personal and veterinarian references will be checked, a home visit conducted, and then the foster parent will set up a meeting where the adopters will meet the dog. If the adoption is approved, the adopter will then complete an Adoption Contract and the dog is theirs! Adoption fees are $275 for most dogs.
