Saturday Snapshot invites bloggers to share photos. Since I have started sharing my photos here, our new critters have received lots of attention. As a result, Barnaby has been feeling neglected. So now it’s his turn! Here’s to the dog who helped me see that poodles have personality plus!

I’ll start with two of the earliest photos I have of Barnaby.

From the start, Barnaby has been an affectionate dog. He gets along with pretty much everyone, including our all our diverse pets. Barnaby even tolerates Gizmo, a senior foster dog that we adopted who can sometimes steal his spotlight. 🙂 Oh, and he is friends with our toys too!

Barnaby also likes to play. One of Andy’s favorite photos of mine is of him playing “monster” with Barnaby. Of course, all that activity tires Barnaby out. It’s a good thing he loves naps too. 🙂

Of course, being a poodle, Barnaby is also comfortable with being pampered. He is also fine with the fancy outfits!

Anyone local who knows Barnaby also knows that he is an agility star. Barnaby loves to climb, tunnel, jump, and run.

We love you Barnaby!

Fun! I love the one with the stuffed animals. And he looks very talented in that collage from the competition!

My husband and I are very proud of Barnaby. He’s a very loving dog who happens to also be a natural at agility. 🙂

Love all your photos, but the one of Barnaby among the stuffed animals is my favorite. What a cutie!

I have a few close-ups of Barnaby in the middle of toys which I didn’t post. One is of him nestled within my plush wolf collection. The photo makes one look twice!

What a lovely dog. I like all the photos, but especially the ones where his ears fly out.

Barnaby looks just my aunt’s old poodle Fozzie but he was more orange.

My husband’s parents have also had a white poodle, black poodle, and red poodle. They’re a poodle family. 🙂
