My personality

My story

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

There is something about a senior dog that brings out the best in us. Loving an elderly pup who wants nothing more than to love and be loved is so gratifying.

Meet Barney, a 15 yr old mixed breed boy who is affectionate, gentle, wise...and blind. His loss of eyesight doesn't stop this handsome fella from exploring his safe environment - in between long naps, cuddles with humans, and the occasional snack.

This sweet boy shows his gratitude for pets and ear scratches by gently asking for more. And then, off for another long nap. Barney is house trained and asks to be let out to do his business. But as an older gent, he may "leak" in between potty breaks. His foster mom easily solved that fact of life by giving Barney a stylish diaper to keep him comfortable. Berry also receives daily (low cost) meds required for his advanced age, which he takes without protest.

A caring benefactor has generously offered to cover the adoption fee for the loving person/family who would like to give Barney a home.

Would you like to love a sweet, gentle soul during the last stage of his life? Barney will reward you with unconditional love and affection. Go to: www.AlmostHomeDogRescueNC.com to submit your no-cost/ no-obligation adoption application. An Adoption Coach will then reach out by phone to tell you all about this special guy.

More about this rescue

Almost Home Dog Rescue NC is a small foster-based rescue group in Western Carolina. After volunteering for years in a local county animal shelter, we could not turn away from the dogs that needed our help the most. We have created a home environment with comfy cabins for the pooches in our fun red barn and provide loads of fun, enrichment and training for the pups in our care. Our goal is to enrich the lives of both the dogs and their adopters alike! Want to learn more or interested in volunteering? Contact us! Interested in supporting our mission?
