The love/hate relationship between three-legged dogs and a small purple dinosaur.
Jerry reminds all three legged dogs and their people to have very Hoppy Holidays, with his smiling photo from Christmas morning, 2007.
Jerry’s favorite present – aside from the Now* – was always that crazy singing Barney. No matter how many times it was re-gifted.
Jerry Christmas to Tripawds Everywhere!
*Now, present, gift, get it? 🙂
Hoppy Holidays KillBarney Fans! Stay tuned for more adventures of Jerry’s little purple friend in the New Year! In the mean time, check out where Barney has been, or let members know if you’d like him to pay a visit and why.
Celebrity Barney arrested for DUI on KillBarney tour stop in Bothell, WA.
As is the case with most celebrities out on tour, Barney’s popularity has apparently gotten to him.
We hadn’t heard from Barney since his visit with Holly an Zuzu. But we were just notified that he was picked up on a DUI and busted somewhere in Washington.
Last we heard he had jumped bail and gone missing again.
Hopefully we’ll get the full story soon in Lincoln’s blog …

The KillBarney Traveling Tripawds Barney Tour stops in Clarendon Hills, IL for a visit with Holly Jolly By Golly and ZuZu.
Attention KillBarney Fans: This just in from Holly Jolly By Golly!
We’ve sure been having fun with Barney here in Clarendon Hills! Let’s see… where did our adventure start?
Well, both Holly and Zuzu were quite excited to help open the box… and Zuzu was the one who pulled Barney out of the package. While on the surface it looks like Zuzu did the most damage – she continued to gnaw on his eye…(which I think Ginger had started) but was unsuccessful in making him a cyclops – in reality I think Holly did such an amazing job at scrambling Barney’s brains that she did more damage overall. Holly did the terrier thing of shaking him to within an inch of his life! So we now think that in addition to his external scars and bruises, Barney has scrambled brains. (check out the dumb smile he still has, though!)
The girls took Barney outside on a nice day, and he ended up climbing into the tomato plants to escape the torture. Unfortunately, Zuzu decided she wanted some of Gayles juju, so she ate one of the socks that Charon made for Barney. At first I thought I could repair it, but now I think I need to knit him another one. I’ll take care of that tonight.
We took Barney to Morton Arboretum, where he got left in a maze and was heard yelling for help for miles around!
We also took him into Chicago, but the pictures from that trip didn’t turn out because it was night and you couldn’t see any of the landmarks in the background. Except when he climbed onto a Chicago Tribune news dispenser. ok – I can’t seem to attach the picture with the tribune thing. 🙁 Maybe my attachments got too fat!
Both girls were incredibly obsessed with Barney’s feet. They kept asking me if his feet smelled like fritos. We’re all wondering if Opie passed that along to him…And there’s a picture of Zuzu and Barney eating orange stuff – the orange stuff is the pupcorn that Ginger sent to Zuzu and Holly!
As you can see, the girls had a great time with the purple beast. But it’s time to pass him along to the next lucky tripawd.
Thanks for all the fun! Stay tuned to Holly’s blog for complete details and more photos from Barney’s visit…
— Holly, Zuzu and Susan
PS: As I was writing this, Barney was sitting on the kitchen table and Zuzu was whimpering for “one last time” with the purple dinosaur! 🙂
Want Barney to pay a visit to your tripawd on the KillBarney Tour? Here’s a reminder of how the tour works and hint for how you might host him next.
Where, oh where has Barney gone?
Where, oh where could he be?
What will be the next stop on the KillBarney Tour? Only Ginger knows.
Where has the tour taken our little purple nemesis in the past? That’s easy, just check the KillBarney Tour map to see which Tripawds members have played host to Jerry’s traveling Barney doll.
Members have asked to be put on the list for a visit from Barney, but it’s not that simple. Here’s a quick refresher on how the tour works: Whoever receives Barney decides where he will go next.
So, the best way to try and sink your teeth into Barney is to make as many Tripawds friends as you can, and stay tuned to this blog to find out where he lands next. As soon as you know where he is, consider sending a PM to Barney’s host stating why you would be the best choice for his next stop on the tour.
Or, plead your case in this I Want Barney forum topic where any hosts wondering where to send Barney can choose from members hoping to sink their teeth into his purple fuzz.
Ginger has drawn first fuzz, attempting to blind Barney but only getting as far as one eye.
Let’s hear it for Ginger!
This just in from the KillBarney Tour …
Barney’s visit to Pontiac, IL is almost over. I don’t know if he had a good time or not – but I had a lot of fun torturing him 🙂
We showed him around our town, which as you will see, we are very proud of. He came along to the office to help Daddy work on Saturday morning. He was even here to go to the dog pawty at my cancer hospital.
I know Comet will be proud – I was chewing on his head when all of a sudden, white stuffing started coming out of his eye. Oops! My pawrents got him an eye patch so he could say he was just getting a jump on his Halloween costume – but I know the truth. Mommy is going to try to sew him up for the next tripawd.
Be sure to check Ginger’s blog soon for all the gory details! As the KillBarney Tour rules dictate, Barney will get stitched up before heading on his way with needle and thread in the box. (Some good member may wish to remove Barney’s remaining eye for safety’s sake. We all know what can happen once the fuzz starts to fly, and Tripawds is not responsible for any unattended choking hazards)
