🐾💙 Happy Father’s Day to all of our Bark Inn Dog Dads! 💙🐾

Today we’re celebrating the dads who:
✔️ Said “We are NOT getting a dog.”
✔️ Now let the dog ride shotgun

✔️ Swore the dog wouldn’t sleep in the bed
✔️ Somehow ended up with 6 inches of mattress

✔️ Said they wouldn’t spoil the dog
✔️ Now have a secret treat stash and 4,000 photos on their phone 😆

You throw the ball one more time, hand out extra snacks when no one’s looking, and somehow always become the favorite human.

📸 We want to celebrate with you! Drop a photo in the comments of your pup with their favorite dog Dad!

And of course… a Father’s Day Dad Joke:
Why are dogs terrible dancers?
🕺🐕 Because they have two left feet! 😂

Wishing all of our Bark Inn Dads a day full of wagging tails, puppy kisses, and maybe even a little room on the couch.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at Bark Inn Kennels! 🐾💙

🐾 Attention Bark Inn Families! 🐾
Did you miss last week’s rabies clinic? No worries, Fenton River Veterinary Hospital is hosting theirs next week, so you still have a chance to get your pets up to date! 🐶🐱💉

Fenton River Veterinary Hospital is hosting its annual Rabies Clinic for dogs and cats on June 20 from 10:00 AM–12:00 PM at the Town Hall parking lot.

💵 Cost: $13 per pet (cash only)

For everyone’s safety:
🐕 All dogs must be on a leash
🐈 All cats must be in a carrier

While you’re there, the Town Clerk’s Office will also be open for dog licensing, making this a great one-stop visit to get your pup up to date and official! 🏷️✔️

Please keep in mind that these clinics are usually very busy because of the low cost, so we recommend arriving early 😊

If you attend the clinic, we kindly ask all of our customers to please email us a copy of your updated rabies certificate and dog license once you’re done. This helps us keep your boarding records current and ensures we stay in compliance with state requirements.

📧 Please send updated documents to: [email protected]

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms out there, whether you’re a proud hooman mom, a devoted fur mom, or lucky enough to be both 💐🐾

Whether your little ones have two legs or four, tiny hands or wagging tails, today is all about celebrating the love, care, patience, snacks, cuddles, and endless devotion you give every single day.

To the moms waking up early for school drop-offs, potty breaks, breakfast demands, morning walks, and surprise messes (because apparently everyone loves keeping moms on their toes 😄), we see you!

No matter if you’re celebrating with your hooman babies, your fur babies, or both, we hope your day is filled with love, snuggles, and maybe even a little extra peace and quiet.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Bark Inn Kennels 💕🐶

Welcome to the Bark Side 🌌🐾

Today, all dogs are invited to train like Jedi masters… or embrace their inner Sith by stealing toys, hoarding tennis balls, and pretending they can’t hear us when it’s time to come inside. 😆

But now we need to know… if your dog were a Star Wars character, who would they be?
🐶 Chew-barka – big, fluffy, and fiercely loyal
🐾 Bark Vader – dramatic with a powerful presence
✨ Yoda – small but wise (and maybe a little bossy)
🚀 Han Solo – chaotic, adventurous, and lovable
🌟 Other – choose your own Star Wars character and tell us why they’re the perfect match for your pup!

Drop a photo of your dog in the comments and let us know who they’d be in a galaxy far, far away. We can’t wait to see your creative choices!

Need a safe place for your furry co-pilot while you travel the galaxy? Want to come scout out our base before booking? Call or text Diane at (860) 684-7436 to reserve your pup’s stay or schedule a tour! She’s standing by in mission control daily from 8:00–10:00 AM and 4:00–6:00 PM. 🚀🐾

May the 4th be with all our Bark Inn dogs today, and may the force guide them straight to the treat jar. ⭐
