The Kport Crew ❤️Barney(rip 12/17/22), Nia, Moji, Teddy, Tootie(adopt6/14/23), Olive & Arthur. We R the KPort Crew❤️ On Thursday, April 14th, 2011, I seriously injured my back.

2021 UPDATE: Since my siblings are an equal part of the pack, mom and I decided to rename my page to include them (they were gettin' kinda jealous that I had my very own page and they didn't) So now the page is called "The Kport Crew" cuz we live in Kennebunkport, Maine. Mom also made a TikTok with the same name so please find us there for fun vids of us. Luv you guys!

Hi, I'm Barney! I'm a 14 year old black and tan mini dachshund with a great sense of humor! On Saturday morning I was rushed to Phoenix to get emergency surgery after my condition deteriorated to such a state that I was paralyzed from the mid section back. The surgery was a necessity....my mom couldn't just let me be paralyzed and put me down. I'm the coolest dog in town and the love of my mom's life. Over the course of that year I recovered remarkably well and could walk, run and even jump a little. And then it happened again. On Thursday, March 29th, 2012, I went down again. It was probably my fault. I was at a boarding facility with lots of other weenies and I think I overdid it with the playing with all of them. Fortunately, mom caught it really early and immediately crated me and got me a prescription for Prednisone and Tramadol for pain. Once again, I couldn't walk or potty on my own. I had to sit in a traction crate, motionless for 8 weeks while my back healed. It was awful and my mom was really scared. But she didn't have the money to get me another expensive surgery so I was just gonna have to heal on my own. I'm happy to report that with some time I once again learned to walk! I walked like a drunken sailor for many months after my second time going down but I worked really hard and now no one makes fun of the way I walk. I still wear a belly band (a fancy word for a diaper) but I wear a long shirt that covers it a little bit. I'm gonna try reeeeeel hard to stay healthy and not hurt myself again. Mom created this page for my friends and anyone else who likes to look at my funny ears and read my silly posts. I love making people laugh and it's kinda cool being a facebook celebripet.
