Barrie was rescued from Syria by the incredible Sean, a former soldier, who heard a childlike cry coming from underneath the rubble of a destroyed school. As the bomb disposal team lifted a giant concrete plinth they were surprised to find a small and frightened puppy, surrounded by the bodies of her siblings and mother.

Sean befriended the puppy, whom he named Barrie, over the next few days and then took her back to base where she started to lift everyone’s spirits, especially at the most difficult of times. Sean decided that there was no way he could be parted from Barrie, and he fundraised to bring her back to the UK. Their story touched so many hearts and Barrie and Sean have appeared on national television and also have also written a book about their unique bond. She was even nominated for the Friends for Life award at Crufts!

Barrie has helped Sean through his PTSD and provided so much joy to people since she was rescued that becoming a therapy dog seemed like the perfect job for her! She is now living the high life in Essex and you can follow her adventures on Instagram at @barriespaws.
