Barkley is a dog with a quiet, unwavering spirit and a past that hasn’t always been kind. At around 5 years old, this Mountain Cur mix has faced neglect and hardship, yet he still believes in the goodness of people. Since arriving at FDHS, Barkley has shown us just how loving and gentle he can be—earning a place as a staff favorite for his loyal, eager-to-please nature. He gets along well with other dogs and approaches each day with a sweetness that defies everything he’s been through.
But now, Barkley faces another struggle. He’s heartworm positive and urgently needs a calm, steady environment to begin his treatment and recovery. Unfortunately, the loud, busy shelter isn’t the right place for him to find the peace he needs to heal. Barkley is holding on with the hope that someone out there will see him for the survivor he is and give him the safe, loving home he’s been waiting for.
If you’ve ever thought about opening your home to a dog who truly needs a second chance, Barkley is ready to be that dog. With a little patience and a lot of love, you can show him what it feels like to be safe and cherished. Please consider fostering or adopting Barkley and giving him the quiet, comforting space he deserves to heal and finally begin his new life.
