Barney came into our care some time ago and Carolyn fostered - and then adopted him. Unfortunately a change in personal circumstances mean that Barney needs to find a new home. Here’s his profile:
Meet Barney – Your Loyal Golden Shadow 💛
Barney is a 10-year-old Golden Retriever with the gentlest soul and the biggest heart. He’s a true people-dog who just wants to be near his human, whether that’s curled up nearby while you relax or tagging along on a quiet walk.
He enjoys sniffing around the garden, pottering about outside, and going for walks at his own pace. He’s not a big player anymore, but he loves his naps and will happily snooze the day away as long as he knows you’re close by.
He is fully house-trained, very sweet, and absolutely adores people and children, whether familiar or strangers, he’s always friendly and affectionate.
He can be reactive around other animals, especially dogs when out on walks, so he would do best as the only pet in the home. For his comfort, walks are best in quieter areas or at quieter times so he can stay relaxed and focused on his person.
Ideal Home:
A calm, loving home where he can be someone’s constant companion. He’d suit someone who’s home a lot, a family with children, or anyone looking for a loyal, low-energy best friend who just wants to be close to you.
If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted dog who will always want to be by your side, Barney could be your perfect match. If you’d like to adopt him please complete an adoption application.

We were even more surprised when Petstock presented us with a cheque for $15,000 for our Pay it Paw-ward Program – helping us to “Keep pets and people together”.
We are very grateful for Pet-Stocks support of local communities and small charities making a direct difference to the wellbeing of their local community. Click here to see the segment.
