barbie

Barbie is a sweet, 7-year-old, 32-pound gal with the most expressive eyes and a gentle soul. She may be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her personality shines through. Barbie loves treats (and takes them very politely!), knows how to sit, and enjoys quiet walks where she can take in the world at her own pace.

She’s more of a people-focused pup than a social butterfly with other dogs, so she’d do well as a solo dog or with a well-matched, respectful canine friend. Barbie can be sensitive and may bark when she’s unsure, but with patience and reassurance, she continues to relax and gain confidence every day.

If you’re looking for a gentle pup with a lot of love, Barbie might be your match.
