BARBIE LUVS KIDS

  It’s hard to imagine how confusing and lonely life must feel in a small, noisy shelter in the middle of nowhere. For six long months, Barbie waited in a tiny kennel in rural New Mexico, not knowing what tomorrow would bring.  Then hope showed up in the most unexpected way. A kindhearted woman who drives a 40-foot tractor trailer for a living learned about Barbie and her companion Kenny. In the middle of her route, she stopped, loaded them up, and refused to let their story end there. Thanks to her determination — and the helping hands at Critter Cavalry Rescue — Barbie finally got her second chance.  Barbie is a 3-year-old, 46-pound fluffy Border Collie mix with a heart as soft as her coat. At the vet’s office, she won everyone over with her affectionate, gentle nature. She simply wants to be close to her people — soaking up every bit of love she missed while waiting in that shelter run.  After her first grooming, she pranced around like she knew she was beautiful — clean, brushed, and finally feeling special. And she is special.  Barbie does well with other dogs her size, though smaller pups may trigger her “squirrel radar.” Mostly, she just wants a home where she can belong and she would love to have children to play with and love.  Or maybe even just to have a person or family to love deeply and faithfully. She will happily learn your routines, follow your lead, and repay you every day with devotion and joy. Barbie has waited long enough. Now it’s her turn to be someone’s everything.  Interested?
