📖 Rescue Story
🐶 Barry’s life changed forever when his owner passed away, leaving him without the home he knew. He was found fending for himself among larger dogs, scavenging for food. Rescued and brought from war-torn Ukraine to the UK, he hoped for stability and love. He has now in the UK looking for a confident owner with experience to dogs that just need instruction and where his needs can be met, but it’s clear he needs a quieter environment away from the bustle of city life. London is too over stimulating for him.
That's what his current Foster family say about him: " Barry is a brilliant dog with tons of potential He was reactive with other dogs out on a walk, but this is now been addressed and he takes instruction really well he deserves a quiet life and to be supported by an owner who has taken care of rescues and is patient with him. So ideally, he would be with an owner in the countryside, with a garden he can relax and feel safe. He loves going for walks just a quiet stroll and he’s very happy 😃
