Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Benedictine aka Benny! DOB: September 2020 Weight: 45 lbs Disposition: Sweet, Gentle, Loving This girl is an absolute reliable sweetheart! Benny is loving and friendly towards men, women, kids, toddlers & infants! She's engaging and listens and comes when called. Hanging with her humans and lounging on soft couches or plush dog beds. Excellent and trustworthy with dogs of all sizes, she loves to play with dogs as little as chihuahuas and as big as St. Bernards. She's playful and gentle at the same time. While we can only imagine the horrors of Benedictine's history, she is a thoughtful, appeasing and sweet little girl with a wonderful disposition and attitude. Her forever family will be very lucky to enjoy her gratitude daily and show her off as an excellent representative of a persecuted breed. History: Found with a chain Rescued by TBL from Kern County shelter when she was at risk of euthanasia. She was found with a massive chain and padlock around her neck and entropion (a painful eye condition where the lashes scrape the retina of the eye and create pain and scarring). She's now recovered from her entropion surgery and her eyes are looking great! Best Home: A family or couple looking for a dog friendly, loving sidekick who will make an excellent cuddle buddy!

Our goal to find the right match for each pooch based on lifestyle, energy level, exercise regime, environment and living situation.

The adoption fees include spay/neuter, up-to-date shots, rabies vaccination, microchip & microchip registration, de-worming and the benefit of getting a pooch who has been living in a stable and loving environment.

More about this rescue
The seed for The Barking Lot was planted a few years back when I took in my first foster dog, Patti Cake, in hopes of making a bigger impact by helping my favorite furry friends. Before I knew it, I was put on some rescue email list and received an email stating, "This dog to be put down on Tuesday at 3pm". I was utterly horrified and jumped into action figuring out how I could save her. Well, I did and I'm glad to report Raspberry (my nephew named her!) is living happily in Encinitas to this day! After getting her adopted, I thought, "That wasn't so tough." And so it goes...over 500 dogs adopted into loving home and 2 1/2 years later...we are now creating The Barking Lot.
As well as being wonderful companions, dogs are amazing teachers and we've learned so much from them...first and foremost that they all deserve a chance at a better life and their behavior will balance beautifully if their needs are meet and good leadership is applied. These pups will be the most grateful creatures you've encountered. We rescue our furry friends from area shelters, humane societies and Mexico as they are at risk of being euthanized and/or abandoned.
We are a small organization with a handful of key volunteers and we are just getting started as a 501c3 non-profit, so we're looking for more volunteers to add to the fun and reward! We need both people and donations to help our furry friends, so we'd be grateful for either. Please contact stacy@thebarkinglot.net
Thanks for choosing rescue,
Stacy, The Barking Lot crew and all the rescued recruits!
P.S. Patti Cake, my original foster dog, is among The Barking Lot residents as I couldn't possibly have given her up & I'm fortunate to call her mine! Yes, I'm proud to report I was a failed foster my first go around!!
