Barney - Not Beethoven

I am here for Friends

About Me

My name is Barney and I just turned 1 year old in January. Gosh where does time go? Seems like just yesterday I was only 9 weeks old. I'm apparently the cutest puppy ever, according to my mommy!!Mom loves to write about the silly things I do so she made this page for me so she can keep a blog about our wonderful time together.

Check out the video mom uploaded of me playing! (Click on View my Videos up by my profile pic!)

What's your mommy/owners name? Danielle
What breed are you? Saint Bernard
How much did you cost?? a lot but worth every penny!
What's your facorite toy? tiny dogs..hehehe
Tap water ot bottled water? Honestly? Toilet water is my favorite! I drive mom nuts trying to get into the toilet - I even learned how to lift the lid with my head!
Do you always walk or are you always carried? uh..walk. mom quit carrying me when I was 3 months old. she couldn't carried me if she tried.

Do you wear clothes? no!
Long or short hair? short
Indoor or outdoor? i go outside when i want, i come inside when i want
Do you sleep with your mommy or in your own bed? on the floor next to my mom
What's your fave color? i don't care!
Do you chase cats or get along with them? i love to slobber on them and try to play with them (chew on them)
How old are you? (in people years) 10 months
Do you like to go swimming? i've never been...i'll ask mom to take me!

Do you believe in interbreedal mating? everyone should spay & neuter their pets and leave breeding up to breeders who take the time to learn about breeding and genetics and those who breed to BETTER the breed, that conduct the appropriate health tests, etc. Yeah my mom has taught me all about breeding and the pet over population.

You Know You're A Saint Lover When...
*You don't own anything that's easily broken.*
*The seats in the back of your estate car are constantly down.*
*Your wardrobe consists of mainly light and tan-coloured clothing.*
*You traded in your super fast sports car for a mini van.*
*The walls of your house are textured...unintentionally.*
*You have gone through 3 vacuum cleaners within 6 months.*
*And, when vacuuming you have to stop twice to empty the bag.*
*Your "dog pen" consists of the whole back room or yard.*
*You have locks on all your kitchen cupboards--including those fixed 5 feet up.*
*A peaceful afternoon consists of your dog NOT snoring.*
The water bowl is really a 5 gallon bucket.*
*You can no longer see in or out through your vehicle side windows.*
*Your legs are covered in bruises from your dog's favorite pastime of "bulldozing".*
*You buy your dog food by the bag rather than by the pound.*
*You gave up on the coffee table 6 months ago and assigned it to the attic.*
*Even though the car has come to a halt, it is still gently rocking.*
*You carry a piece of towel with you everywhere you go.*
*You have come to despise summer and can't wait for winter to return.*
*You concreted over the lawn 6 weeks after getting your dog(s).*
*When sitting on the toilet, soggy tennis balls being dropped into your underwear are a common occurrence.*
*You know there's just no way you'll ever get a dog car crate that's big enough.*
*Heavy breathing no longer bothers you.
You have to pick up the dog mess -- everyone in the neighborhood will know where it came from.*
*You used to think German Shepherd's were big dogs.*
*YOU ARE LOVED AND IDOLIZED BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT*

Other doggies and people who love doggies.
