This adorable and playful pooch is Barkley, a six-month-old Boxer mix from Hank’s Legacy Foundation, who’s ready for his forever home.

Katie Tanguma, Barkley’s foster, explains why the cute canine would be a wonderful addition to any family. He’s great with kids, other pets and is just an all-around good boy.

Plus – are you considering a puppy as a Christmas gift for your kids? Tanguma shines a spotlight on why that’s not necessarily a good thing. From financial responsibilities to a mismatch in lifestyles and schedules, adopting a puppy is a significant life choice that shouldn’t be taken lightly.
