Caldwells Pet of The Week: 4-Month-Old Barney

Barney is lovable, playful and all the things a young pup is expected to be, and is ready to be adopted from Orphaned Pets Inc. of West Caldwell.

This baby Yorkshire terrier mix is in need of a welcoming home. 

Barney is only 4 months old and he is very playful and active. You can adopt him now from Orphaned Pets Inc. of West Caldwell.  

Because Barney is still so young, he needs to be trained and is yet to be house broken. He is lovable and all the things a young pup is expected to be.
