My story

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

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Hi there! My name is Barkley! 👋

ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL?
I'm a boy! 💙

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
I am about two years old as of April 2024.

WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
I am an English Bulldog.🐶

HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
I weigh about 47 pounds.

WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
Oh, I am SO handsome, if I do say so myself! I have a squishy face with beautiful eyes that will mesmerize you and melt your heart. And my red merle coat is stunning! Everybody that sees me exclaims, “Wow!” 🤩

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
I like my Royal Canin kibble. And if you have some “good boy” treats that you want to give me, I won’t turn you down!

WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I am a sweet little boy that likes everyone. I haven’t met a human I don’t like, and everyone says I’m just the best boy they’ve ever met! I think that’s pretty cool, don’t you? 😊

DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
My perfect day is hanging out with my human (food, fun, and cuddles, please!) and playing with ALL the toys!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
I have a large purple ball that I absolutely LOVE! I am so entertained by all the toys, though. Let’s play! 🟣

DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I know how to sit and lay down. I’m a bulldog… work smarter, not harder, right? If I’ll get the “good boy” rewards for the basics, let’s stick to the basics!😆

WHAT SCARES YOU?
I'm very cautious of new things. I approach them very slowly until I figure out what they are.

HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?
I have been around children and they’re cool. But I think it would be best if I was only around older kids, because I’m kind of a tank and, once I get going, I might knock some littles down. 🤭

DO YOU LIKE CATS?
I'm not sure about cats. I have two that stay in the same room as I do, but I don't really pay any attention to them. 🐱

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I love other dogs that want to play with me. Of course, proper introductions are the way to set me up for success, but once I meet new friends, we will have lots of fun!

IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
I love getting cuddles and attention, so I would want to be pretty much anywhere that I can be next to my human.

HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
My health is great! I had surgery to widen my nares (nostrils) and I had soft palate surgery, so now I can breathe! I feel like a whole new dog!

WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?
I live with my foster mom, four doggie siblings, two cat siblings and one other foster doggie. I love spending time with my foster mom because she gives me lots of loves. 🤗

WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
I hang out in my crate.

WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
I sleep in my crate like a good boy. 😴

DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I love to walk on my leash. Let’s go explore! 🦮

DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
I do tend to jump up on my humans to give hugs, but I'm learning that I can sit at their feet to get those hugs and loves. 💞

ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
I am house trained!

DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I'm not a big fan of water. With my smooshy face and stocky body, I’m just not built for water activities, so I should be kept safe from pools and other bodies of water, please!

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
My foster family has given me a safe home with lots of love.

WHAT WAS YOUR LIFE LIKE BEFORE BEING BROUGHT INTO NORCAL BULLY BREED RESCUE?
I'm not too sure, but I was passed around a little, and was overheating because I couldn’t breathe very well. NorCal Bully Breed Rescue took me in and got me the surgery that I needed to help me breathe. Now I am feeling GREAT and ready to live a fun-filled life with a family all my own! I will love you forever if you let me! 🥰
