About Barbara
Attention All Beagle LoversBarbara is a beautiful senior girl looking for her forever family who is ready to accept all the cuddles she wants to provide. She came into our rescue after living a nomadic life. We have been told that she once had an owner who passed several years ago and that she has been on her own since. Since coming into rescue, Barbara is coming into her own, showing that even seniors can get zoomies. Barbara is 10 years old and doesn’t need long walks or hours of play to tire her out. She really wants nothing more than to take long naps and during her waking hours, spend time with you, be it at your feet while you do chores or settle in on the couch for a Netflix binge (she will not judge).More about Barbara: This senior girl is a nice size, a little under 25 pounds and becomes a wiggling bundle of joy when her favorite human returns home and when adventuring outside. Barbara sleeps quietly in her crate overnight. During the day, Barbara acts like a respectable Beagle: she loves to sniff the ground and keeps track of her favorite human’s location. Barbara is respectful of both dogs and cats. Her ideal home would include a private yard for her to explore at her leisure. Barbara would be happy to be your one and only canine companion or join a family with similarly inclined canines. Barbara’s Needs: Barbara walks well on a leash and enjoys short walks. Barbara loves to roll in the grass and sniff the air and will be very content to sun herself while you attend to yard work. Her ideal home would give her outdoor space to explore and have a fenced in yard so that she can roll and sniff on her own terms. Barbara is still recovering from her recent nomadic period and the lack of a consistent, healthy diet. She came into rescue positive for lyme disease. And while she completed one round of antibiotics, it is recommended that she be tested again and may need a second course of antibiotics. Additionally, Barbara’s kidney levels are high and she is on medication and a diet to help regulate her bloodwork. Since coming into rescue, good food and care have brought these numbers down but her bloodwork will need to be monitored. In addition to a like-minded canine sibling and a private yard, Barbara’s ideal adoptive family will include at least one human who is at home more often than not and is ready to provide and receive the affection that this lovable “Velcro” dog offers. Can you provide the home that Barbara needs and deserves for her senior years?Barbara is available now through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA 15144, KL#16182.
