    Barney

    Hey Barney, you and your person seem like a great team. I am convinced by my own experiences and you guys are also a testament to the notion that LOVE can accomplish great things. What it has done for you two is amazing and wonderful. To Barney's person: Whenever I see a dog that's in need of a home and a family, I think they have the same potential that Barney has shown. I have three rescues that turned-out tremendously well and they all get along like the loving family they are. I am very thankful when a dog like Barney gets a new lease on life in the form of a good home and loving family. Love can surely conquer some of the most formidable foes. Back to Barney: Congratulations of being our very worthy Dog Of The Day. Me and mine wish for you and yours a long and happy life together. I'm very glad that your person is cancer free, so you keep up your nursing and rehabilation duties and keep that cancer chased out of there. Cheers.

    Hello Barney, I have tears in my eyes after reading about the accomplishments of you and your human. How fortunate for both of you that you ended up together. It's just amazing how patience, caring, time, and love can help us all--dogs and people. You are a beautiful dog and your human takes great photos and I enjoyed every one of them. I hope you two have many more years together and that your human stays cancer free. You two are meant to help each other. Congrats on being DOTD!

    This is really an amazing story. I also had tears in my eyes while I read it. This was definitely a match made in heaven.

    Congrats on being Dog of the Day Barney!! And congrats to your person for beating cancer and being such a wonderful person.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I love to see each and every dog of the day. Today I felt compelled to comment because it impressed on me so much the truth of how much dogs (animals!) give to us, and how much this guy has helped his owner, whose family had it in their heart to take him in when nobody else would. The dog has probably been such a support in fighting with cancer, where no person may have been able to provide just that kind of comfort that a dog can. Bless you, and bless your dog. And the photographs are so pretty! Thank you for sharing this. I hope you are feeling well now!
