Calling all Barktoberfest Costume contest participants! 📣
We were so excited to celebrate today’s Barktoberfest with you that the day completely got away from us, along with all the pawsome costume’s!
The thing is, we still have awards to be given so we’d love your help!
Please share a photo of your pup in their costume at today’s event and we will choose some winners!
Thank you for joining us today. We saw many happy pups who likely are still napping from all the fun!

We’ve had some wonderful things going on here at the Barkery that you didn’t know about.. So, it’s time for some Barkery Brags. 2 weeks ago our summer training session ended with celebrating. pictures and fun. Our puppies grew physically and in their ability to work with their handlers and play with their friends. While our intermediate group honed their obedience skills. Coach Becki created an agility-like obstacle course to challenge each team.
