We investigate the structural, magnetic, and electrical properties of charge-spin co-doped Ba1−x−yLax+yTi1−xMxO3 (M = Cr, Fe, and Co). For Ba1−x−yLax+yTi1−xCrxO3, carrier doping induces short-range ferromagnetism, and we find a large negative magnetoresistance in these compounds. However, for Ba1−x−yLax+yTi1−xMxO3 (M = Fe and Co), the magnetism does not seem to couple with the charge carriers. The transport properties of Ba1−x−yLax+yTi1−xCrxO3 can be described by a three-dimensional variable-range-hopping model that implies itinerant charge carriers, whereas almost all the samples of Ba1−x−yLax+yTi1−xMxO3 (M = Fe and Co) exhibit high resistivity. It is known that only the itinerant charge carriers can enhance the coupling of two isolated magnetic ions. Therefore, there is almost no long-range ferromagnetism in the studied system.
