A new internet superstar is taking over social media, and he comes in the form of an irresistibly adorable tiny Pomeranian-Poodle mix. This little fluffball bears a striking resemblance to the beloved Star Wars icon Chewbacca—if Chewbacca were much smaller and far less growly.
I don’t know about you, but after watching this clip, consider me absolutely smitten. This little dog is utter cuteness overload.

This precious pup belongs to the TikTok account for @Pomapoo.Barney, and little Barney has basically stolen the hearts of everyone. One person simply exclaimed, “Chewbacca!” Another person added, “The fur and his face looks so adorable. Looks like a little Chewbacca.”
Someone else responded, “A real life teddy bear!” If I didn’t know better, I’d almost think little Barney was an AI creation because he’s just that cute! But nope, here’s another clip of the little guy!

I keep repeating to myself I don’t need another pet, I don’t need another pet, because if I had my way I’d have my own little Chewbacca, I mean, Barney, running around my house. He’s just ridiculously cute. I mean, need more proof?

I’m not sure how Barney’s mom gets anything done with this little guy around because I think all my time would be split between staring at him in awe and cuddling him. One of the best things about a mixed-breed dog like this is he should stay pretty small, which means he’s totally portable! I’d never be able to leave him at home.
So whether you think he resembles a teddy bear or Chewbacca, I think we can all agree he’s totally cute.
Star Wars inspired names for your pup
Choosing a Star Wars name for your dog is a fun way to show off your love for the galaxy far, far away while giving your pup a name that stands out. Whether you go for a classic like Chewie (perfect for a fluffy dog), Vader (for a big, intimidating-looking pup), or Leia (for a regal and fearless fur baby), there’s a name to match every personality.
You could also try Obi, which would be a cute choice for an older dog, or a dog with a white shaggy beard. Baby Yoda would be cute for a little puppy, or Luke after Luke Skywalker. You could also do C3PO!
Here are some other fun dog name ideas to inspire you. Whatever you name your pooch, you’re in for days filled with so much pure love!
