Hey – it’s Barnaby Jones - Investigator extraordinaire.
His next case? . . . Locating his forever home. This
inquisitive boy loves exploring and pokes his black
squishy nose into every door, drawer, cabinet, cubby,
drain, bag, and hole he encounters. A true detective,
he does not disturb the scene but merely observes and
takes mental notes for potential future reference.
Barnaby loves to go for walks which counterbalances his treat tooth and cause he is a hefty 27 pounds. He politely greets other canines but sometimes they find his terrier stare rude. He loves going to the pet supply shops, tail up, methodically sniffing out any trouble-spots and graciously vacuuming up dropped treats from other patrons. Unlike the other dog shoppers who gravitate toward squeaky toys, Barnaby feels compelled to investigate and peers under the shelving and twists himself around the backs of display cases to get the real scoop. He will play with squeaky toys but would much rather go for exploratory walks or do whatever his person is doing. During work or tv time, he prefers a good healthy chewy or smoked knuckle bone to keep him busy. He enjoys car rides and “shotgun” is his favorite spot but the backseat is ok too, as long as he gets to come along. Barnaby likes to see the world whether from car windows, a walk, or just looking out the window from home sweet home. He particularly enjoys if you hold him up to a window to look out together. It’s a sure way to squeeze in a work-out while entertaining your terrier.
Barnaby is neutered, vaccinated, Heartworm tested and on preventative, fecal checked, blood panel, received Frontline and is micro chipped. He also had a full dental cleaning and while under had two fatty or benign growths or cysts removed. He was picked up as a stray and was pretty dirty and matted with a good case of flea dermatitis to boot. Not a good scenario for a breed prone to allergies. He is currently being treated for an ear infection and getting his skin and coat back to its once beautiful luster. Barnaby is approximately 5 to 6 years old, is housetrained, mild mannered, and polite and would love to find a friend and day-to-day companion.
Thank You Kelley from Bloomington, IN for giving Barnaby a ride to Rescue!
