About BARRY - $300

BARRY was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas, where dogs generally have just 3 days to be saved before they are killed for space. BARRY is neutered, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, heartworm tested negative and micro-chipped. He has an estimated date of birth of 19 August 2013 and at the time of rescue in February 2018 weighed around 8.6 pounds. Barry has been listed as a Chihuahua mix, however, we are not able to say for sure what breed he is, it is up to you to look at his pictures and decide what you think he looks like. Barry is a sweet, loving affection little man. He lives in the small dog area with 8 other dogs and he gets on great with them all. There are pee pads down that they all use, but will go outside when it is a nice day and the door can be left open for a while for them to go and play outside and explore. He gets on great with other dogs of all sizes and ages and has never shown any sign of aggression at all. We do not have cats or livestock at the rescue so cannot comment on how he would behave near or around them. Barry although small is still an active boy and would love an active family, he would benefit from some training as do all rescue does and we recommend that the family work with him on basic obedience so that personality, boundaries and body language can be learned from each other. He loves to snuggle and will cuddle up on your lap enjoying the love and he is happy going on adventures or just hanging out. As long as he is with you he is happy. ��%BD'��%BD��%BDWe do not recommend dog parks for several weeks, if not months, it is so very important for families and dogs to form a strong bond and get to know each other before exposing them to the potential dangers of dog parks. Although all GaDaH dogs are very well socialized with other dogs, lots of other dogs have not had the benefit of this socialization and do not always know how to play and act with other dogs. You also do not know the control the other families have over their dogs and you should always have a good recall for your adopted dog before going to dog parks. BARRY is available for adoption from Give a Dog a Home, German Shepherd Dog Rescue for an adoption fee of $550. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.
