Barkley, the Dog of the Day
Name: Barkley
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Male Breed: Siberian Husky, Labrador Retriever
Home: Port Richey, Florida, USA
 
   Barkley is more than just my dog, he's my companion. In the morning, I wake up and he greets me with a series of kisses. Then we begin our day. He's always right by my side, no matter what. Sure he's stubborn at times, but what dog isn't? Of course, every dog is different, and Barkley has some peculiar habits. For instance, he's afraid of thunderstorms. Yet, he's lived in Florida all of his life. When he's afraid, he chews things, like the corner of the wall.He has dropped this habit luckily, but he has another. If its nighttime, and its raining and thundering out, he will lay directly onto of you! It takes some time to get him off and calm him down, but he is just showing me that he loves me. He also doesn't like men, since his former human father was abusive. Luckily he is curing this habit now, since my mother is getting remarried, and he likes her fiancé Rick. Then, at the end of the day, we both hop up onto my bed and sleep. First thing I see every day, last thing I see every night. Overall, Barkley is a lovable and faithful companion. My companion.
