Congratulations to our Bernie’s Backyard Doggy Daycare Team on completing their professional training as Canine Carer Specialists with Barkademy Manual.
We can’t wait to get started with our new program and sharing the love with the beautiful 4 legged friends we are entrusted with each day.

✨ Congratulations to the Team at Bernie's Pet Barn ✨

We’re thrilled to share that the staff at Bernie’s Backyard Doggy Day Care have now officially completed the Canine Carer Specialist (CCS) Training through The Barkademy Manual.

This team has fully embraced the enrichment-based approach to group care — and it shows.
They’ve been implementing structured daily activities, building confident playgroups, and supporting each dog’s emotional wellbeing with patience, clarity, and genuine care.

This isn’t just “more activities.”
It’s a shift in philosophy.

Staff are supported, skilled, and present.

Bernie’s Backyard, we are so proud of the effort, the enthusiasm, and the heart you’ve put into this. Your daycare dogs are in wonderful hands. 🐾

Welcome officially to The Barkademy Family.
We’re so glad to have you.
