We are sad today as everyone learns ... Barney is back in care.

Here are some things to note about Barney or any dog you are intending to adopt ...
1. Dogs are dogs! They will do doggy things ... bark, drool, jump, chase and more.
2. Animals are not perfect at the drop of a hat! They need patience and training to get there. Sometimes perfect is only a dream.
3. GIVE YOUR NEW ANIMAL TIME to acclimatize to their new situation before introducing them to children, children's toys, other pets, other pet's toys, other family members, dog parks, rides in the vehicle ... These are all strange to your new furry friend.

We don't want to set up our animals in care for failure. We can only take people's words that they will follow their good senses when taking our furry friends' home.
Every time an animal is taken out of care and returned it adds to their complex list of human failures, and they suffer just one more time.

Please please please ... let the animals rest, take in their new surroundings. Let them get used to things, let them be the best pet they can be without adding more stress right away.

We know someone will come along and love the dog Barney is. Please share this boy with everyone you know.
