I was 13yrs. old when Barry was born.Of five children he was the youngest.Dad bought "Jess" our white Alsation bitch while Barry was a baby and because they grew up together they were inseparable.Dad always said he needn't worry while they were out because she protected him and wouldn't let anyone hurt him. He even tested the theory on a few "Doubting Thomases" much to their dismay ! Barry was a premature baby but ended up the biggest of the brothers.He was quiet and thoughtful - our gentle giant.
