1014 Barry PKA Bear

Barry is being fostered in Griffith, IN.<br/><br/>Meet this handsome red bi boy! At 3 years old and 45 pounds, he's the perfect mix of playful adventure buddy and loyal cuddle companion. He's always happy, loves being around his people, and fully embraces the “Velcro Aussie” lifestyle — if you're moving, he's probably following right behind you.<br/><br/>One of his favorite things in the world is playing with toys, especially durable balls. He loves and squeezes them so enthusiastically that regular balls don't stand a chance for very long! He has a great energy level where he's always ready for a game of fetch, but also understands when it's time to settle down while his foster mom works or when it is time for bed. During the day, he's content lounging nearby, keeping you company.<br/><br/>He's fully potty trained, has wonderful house manners, and can be left home alone without any issues. When you leave, he may give a few sad cries because he adores his people so much, but he quickly settles in for a nap. He rides beautifully in the car, happily jumps right into his crate for road trips, but also rides well loose in the vehicle.<br/><br/>He's incredibly affectionate and loves cuddling, belly rubs, and simply being close to his humans. He's also very smart and eager to please. Because he's highly treat motivated, training comes naturally to him. He already knows sit, spin, shake, lay down, leave it, and stay — and he's continuing to improve his duration with stay every day.<br/><br/>He enjoys walks around the neighborhood and does very well passing dogs behind fences or in homes. On busier walking paths, he can become excited when he sees other dogs and can't go say hello, so he's continuing to work on staying calm and quiet in those situations.<br/><br/>While he enjoys having dog friends visit and can coexist well with other dogs, he would thrive most as the only dog in the home because he really loves having his toys all to himself. He's looking for a home without children (or at least no children under 14) as the fast-paced energy and rough play style of kids can make him nervous and his herding instincts (a nip) kick in to try to stop the chaos.<br/><br/>This sweet boy is deeply devoted, loving, and happiest when he's part of his person's everyday life. If you're looking for a sidekick, best friend or loyal companion who will make you laugh, keep you company, and happily chase a ball for as long as you'll throw it, he may be your perfect match.
