🐾🔨 A LITTLE PAWS-ITIVE CHANGE IS COMING TO BARK INN KENNELS! 🔨🐾

Remember when we mentioned we were looking for a company to update our kennel flooring? Well, we’ve found one, and it’s time to get this project rolling! 🐶🧡

Bark Inn Kennels will be closed November 14th–21st while the professionals at Happy Coatings install our new flooring system throughout the kennel and we make a few other improvements. A big thank-you to Happy Coatings for helping us give our facility a fresh new look! 🛠️🐾

We’re making these upgrades to keep our home away from home comfortable, clean, and welcoming for our four-legged guests. After all, our pups deserve the best! 🐾❤️

We’ll reopen on Sunday, November 22nd, with fresh new floors and a few improvements, ready to welcome our furry friends back for the holiday season!

📱 Planning a holiday stay or have a question? Please call or text Diane at (860) 684-7436. She’s available daily from 8:00–10:00 AM and 4:00–6:00 PM.

Thanks for your patience while we spruce things up! We can’t wait to welcome your pups back for more tail wags, treats, and happy stays! 🐶🧡🐾

We are looking to have epoxy put down on the kennel floors. Prefer to have someone local and someone that has done work for you. Do you have any recommendations?
