About Barney
Barney, cat-friendly little guy with the blonde mohawk!
Barney is a very sweet little Dachshund x Poodle weighing less than 5kg, but he certainly makes an impression! He's a quirky-looking little fella with a gorgeous blonde curly mohawk that gets plenty of attention when he's out and about. He's guaranteed to bring a smile to the faces of people he passes.
Barney absolutely loves people of all ages and sizes. His favourite place is on someone's lap, soaking up the love. He's a real little snuggle bug! He feels the cold, so you'll usually find him sporting a jumper, although when the sun is shining he'll happily find a sunny spot to stretch out and snooze.
He enjoys the company of other dogs once he gets to know them. He can be a little nervous initially and may have a grumble, but he's a gentle little soul. He's currently living happily with a cat and a teenager, and would love to have another animal companion rather than being the only pet, as he can get lonely and anxious on his own.
Barney would suit a home where his people are around most of the time, and a dog door would be a bonus. If he has a canine friend, he'd prefer someone calm who isn't into rough play, as his long little back needs some consideration.
If you're looking for a tiny companion with a big heart, a very distinctive hairstyle and an endless supply of cuddles, Barney could be just the little man for you!
