History: Barron is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Take a look at that sweet face—this is Barron! 💙 If he looks a little unsure, that’s because life is still very new to him. Barron came to us as part of a breeder release and is just beginning to understand what it means to feel safe, loved, and cared for in a home.
Barron is a gentle observer who likes to keep track of where everyone is and what’s going on around him. While he’s still warming up to the humans in the house, he has already found comfort and confidence in our resident dog, who is helping show him the ropes and teaching him that people can be pretty wonderful too.
He’s doing a fantastic job with potty training and will let you know when he needs to go outside. We use a belly wrap indoors as an extra precaution while he continues learning. Leash walking is still a work in progress, but Barron is a smart boy and improving every day.
Barron has tested positive for heartworm and will begin treatment in January. He’ll need a patient, supportive home to help him through that process—but in return, you’ll gain a loyal companion with so much love to give.
This good boy is ready to find his furever home, where he can continue to blossom and return your love tenfold. 🐾❤️

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
