About this Dog
Barney - Yellow Male, dob 3-24-21, 108 lbs. Hi there new friends! My name is Barney – big Barney actually and I am so excited to meet you! I am on the hunt for my forever family – could it be with you? I have not always had the easiest life. I used to live with a family…well not exactly a family…some people bought me as a cute puppy, but after a short time and because I was acting like a puppy, I was relegated to their backyard kennel alone. Day and night. Being a “papered” dog didn’t do me a lot of good. You know what the term “sold down the river” means? Yeah, that’s me and it ended when I was taken in by the defenders of dogs, the Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno! Up until recently, I had not walked on leash, which I am learning takes me to places I want to go and sniff the world. At my foster home I have been treated with kindness I had not received before, good food and a soft, clean place to sleep. Wow- talk about a lifestyle change!!! I am in Labrador heaven! Seriously, I can’t stop smiling - can life get any better?? My foster parents say, yes it can! They are helping me find a forever family where I will be a beloved family member – not just a lawn ornament, lonely and forgotten. Despite my rough past, I have nothing but love for people. I literally melt into you when you pet me – I especially love belly rubs. I have a lot of missed affection to make up for! I am learning about that round thing called a ball and doggie toys, and treats are so amazing. It is so great to be with people – I just cannot get enough of it! Barney is an incredibly resilient Labrador who is full of love and is ready to devote himself to his forever family. His loving spirit shines through constantly and warms your heart. This sweet boy has come such a long way and gets more comfortable and confident every day. Barney has been under socialized because his “family” chose to ignore him most of his short life so he has a lot to make up for. He needs continued socialization and a dog savvy family who will continue his training. Because he was bored while stuck in a cage, all he could do to pass the time was, well, eat. With no exercise he became too heavy, so he is on a doggie diet until he’s at a healthy weight. He does not like to share his food with other dogs, so if there is another in the home, they should be fed separately. He is great with people but because of his size, older children who are dog savvy is best. We do not know about cats or small dogs. This loving Labrador is happiest when he is cuddled up next to you. Do you have room in your heart and home to make Barney a member of your family? Apply to meet Barney today at www.labrescuefresno.org.

Adopt Barney and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Barney's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Barney's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Barney, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Barney's Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Barney was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Barney’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Barney’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Barney’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
