Barbie - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Merrillville, Indiana

💔 Barbie’s story should have ended with a family... but instead, she’s still waiting for the one who will never give up on her. 💔

Barbie is 4 years old, and this sweet girl has already experienced more heartbreak than any dog should ever know. She was left outside to fend for herself for two long months before she was finally scanned for a microchip. Her owner was found... but they never came for her.

We thought Barbie’s next chapter had begun when she was adopted through Big Dogs Don’t Cry. We believed she had found her forever home. But sadly, she was returned because her adopter felt she didn’t get along with other dogs. The truth is, we don’t know exactly how Barbie feels about every dog she meets — but we do know something important...

Barbie deserves a chance. She deserves someone who will see her heart, not just her past. ❤️

Her foster family wants everyone to know the amazing dog Barbie truly is:

✨ She has had no accidents in the house
✨ She doesn’t chew on things that aren’t hers
✨ She has incredible patience with children
✨ She is gentle and thoughtful in how she plays and interacts with kids and adults
✨ She loves going for walks
✨ She is a great car ride companion and enjoys adventures
✨ She is learning and adjusting, just like any dog who has been through so much

Barbie has dug a few holes in the backyard (hey, some dogs garden without permission 😉), and she does bark at the neighbor’s dog — but she has shown no desire to hurt anyone. She’s simply a dog communicating and still learning.

After everything Barbie has endured, she is still loving. She is still trusting. She is still hoping someone will choose her and mean it forever.

Could you be Barbie’s person? Could you be the family who shows her that being abandoned and returned isn’t her story anymore?

Barbie is waiting. ❤️
