Barnacle was abandoned in a kennel. All of his hair was cut, but he still had the "face to die for." See his picture when he was first rescued.
He loves walks and all food (especially rice and ice). He eats dry dog food, but sometimes is allowed to have small "tastes" of other food. He hates bikes, motorcycles, skateboards, Dalmatians, and Brittany Spaniels.
