He was always such a sweet dog despite his terrible background. His foster mom who I got to know well (she placed a second cocker with me a few years later, so I had two!) had rescued a lot of dogs on her life and she said that poor Barney was by far the messiest, took her a long time to get him at least cleaned up. But you can see that he cleaned up beautifully and we hit it off right away, I had to pass muster with his foster mom. That's the only pic I have of him online. That was right after I had surgery and it was painful to leave him while I was hospitalized. He also had a few quirks, like thinking he could make friends with a lawn sprinkler and when we went on walks we had to give parked cars a very wide berth, but learning about him was endearing.
