Without further ado, let's all welcome Madalina to The Barking Lot team! I'll let her introduce herself---

Hello, my name is Madalina Ehret! I am 19 years old and a proud resident from Washington County. I am currently a student at Kaskaskia College, working toward my Business Management degree. I have had a passion for animals-especially dogs-for as long as I can remember! At just 16, I took a step further with what I loved and started learning how to groom dogs. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work at two different facilities in Shiloh and Nashville IL. I am so excited to be opening this new chapter in my life and can’t wait to have you all along for the journey-let’s make it a tail-wagging adventure.

So many exciting things happening at The Barking Lot the last few days....boarders having fun this weekend, a few cute ones available for adoption (including the kitten we named Blanche Devereaux), Dorothy Zbornak (also a kitten) got adopted!, and we hired a NEW GROOMER. We will post their introduction tomorrow....so exciting!!!

We have once again found ourselves without a groomer. We are working hard to find a replacement as quickly as possible and will post here when we are able to groom your pups again.

We apologize for the inconvenience for those that already had appointments booked.

Although we are a dog-only facility, we couldn't turn this little lady away when she showed up on our doorstep, in the middle of the night, asking for help! We have given her a nice, warm bath, and some yummy meals while she has stayed with us, but now we need to give her a new home as well! She is incredibly sweet, has no issues with other cats or dogs, and is just a complete and total love bug!

If you or anyone you know is interested in adopting this pretty, little lady, please contact us at 618-532-9255 or by email at [email protected]!

💃They say a shimmy a day keeps the sad away, so come dance the night away with miss Shimmer! 💃

This is Shimmer, a mixed breed, meatball shaped, goof full of mayhem and love! Here’s a list of Shimmers funny, little, quirk: she is missing part of her back foot, but she doesn’t let it slow her down any! Zoomies? Oh yeah, she’s got em. Floppy? The most. Couch potato in the shape of an actual potato. What could be better? She does tend to view the weather as her blood sworn enemy. It’s above 80 degrees outside? The floor is Lava. A little windy? Might as well be being sucked up in a tornado. Rain? What, you expect her to swim through a flood? On a more serious note, although she doesn’t prefer the outdoors, she will absolutely go outside and has had no accidents while staying with us!

Miss shimmer has been with us for quite sometime now and unfortunately because of that she is very fond of the people that work here and a little used to the day to day life of being here so she is quite shy and slow to warm up to new folks, but get her back to your house on a couch or bed and you’ll have a baked bean, looking best buddy for life! She does have a not-so-criminal past of not liking cats, or maybe liking them a bit too much 😬, so she will have to go to a home without any. As far as interacting with other dogs, she seems to be more interested in males but we are unsure how she will interact with others when out and about.

So how about you come let this little lady dance her way into your life, one little shimmy at a time! Contact us at The Barking Lot phone number 618-532-9255 or our email [email protected] for more information!

Happy Saturday from TBL- we've learned a few things the last few weeks. #1- we had to upgrade some of our furniture to items from K9 Ballistics lol. #2- we need to hire someone! We've been so busy with a full house of dogs, we need to add a part time person to our staff.
