Barnacle German Shepherd Dog & Australian Shepherd Mix Isle of Palms, SC

Meet one of the crazy eights! Fostered near Charleston, SC.
Barnacle’s favorite things are exploring the great outdoors, the kiddie pool and napping. He has a special talent for wedging himself into small places, but he is anything but small, currently (5/22/24) pushing 15 lbs. He is a sweet, low energy boy who loves to observe and study his world, but eagerly engages in playtime as well. He has been socialized around children, several dogs and a variety of adults. Currently not interested in the cat but has never had a face-to-face. Doing well with pee pad training and transitioning to the great outdoors.

Born 3/22/24 to an Aussie mom and a German Shepherd dad, Barnacle and his littermates were surrendered to a rural KY shelter after their family suffered a house fire in which their dad sadly perished.
We always advise against children under 10 as he will be big and may knock small children over.
