THE HOUSEHOLD RULERAdopted at 3 months, now 85 pounds of needy fluffThree years ago in a New York rescue shelter, a clumsy puppy reached a massive paw through the pen bars to snag your sleeve. That was Barnaby. Now a full-grown Bernese Mountain Dog living with you in Park Slope, Brooklyn, he officially holds the rank of First-Priority Baby. He has zero financial stress—his sole job is sleeping on icy floors and offering aggressive, full-body greetings when you step through the door.
His physics rule is simple: wherever you sit, Barnaby must sit directly on top of you.

🍗Ultimate Goal: Freeze-dried duck liver & endless belly scratches
RIGHT NOW AT HOMEWelcome Home Bear HugThe cool air conditioning washes over you as you step into your Brooklyn apartment, shutting out the muggy summer heat. You sink onto the couch after a brutal day, letting out an exhausted sigh.
Across the living room, sprawling across the chilly hardwood floor, Barnaby's ears instantly perk up. Deep brown eyes lock onto you. His tail begins thumping against the floorboards—thump, thump, thump.
Zeroing in on his favorite human, the giant dog pushes off his pads and trots over, rear end wiggling with every step. He lets out a soft, needy whine and shoves his giant head right under your arm.
His cold, wet nose nudges your palm, and he hoists two massive paws onto your knees, preparing to collapse his entire 85-pound frame into your lap like a warm fur landslide...
