Barking Mad Dog Care

01/10/2026

There’s really nothing quite like the love of a dog 🐶💛

The loyalty, the companionship, the excitement every time you walk through the door… they have a wonderful way of making us feel like the most important person in the world. 🐾

We’re very lucky to have them!

We’re creating our next Barking Mad Calendar, and we need your lovely dog photos!

Whether they’re posing perfectly, enjoying an adventure, or simply looking adorable, we’d love to see them!

🐾 Six runners-up will each earn a spot inside the calendar and receive a £20 Amazon voucher.

Plus, all seven winners will receive 5 copies of the finished Barking Mad calendar! 📅

IMPORTANT:
For the best chance of being selected, please make sure your photo is:

🐶 A great shot that really shows off your dog’s personality!
📸 When sending your photo, please remember to include your dog’s name too.

September might nearly be over… but there’s still plenty of time for cuddles! 🐶💛

And with these cosy autumn days, what better time to welcome a four-legged guest into your home?

If you love dogs but can’t commit to having one full time, becoming a Barking Mad host could be the perfect way to enjoy some extra companionship, walks and of course, plenty of cuddles. 🐾🍂

Our furry friends deserve a holiday too this autumn! 🍂🐶

While you’re off enjoying your own break, your pup can be making memories of their own with a loving Barking Mad host. Think crisp autumn walks, plenty of fuss and a cosy home from home to curl up in afterwards. 💛🐾

Because holidays should be something the whole family can enjoy!

Dogs really do make life better 🐶💛

They make us laugh, get us outside, keep us company and somehow always know when we need a little extra love.

We might look after them, but they give us so much in return. 🐾

At Barking Mad we have a solution; our hosts get to enjoy the companionship of a dog without the financial or emotional commitment of being a dog owner ❤
