Nugget has news! We crossed a 1,000 followers on Instagram - yayyy! 🥳🥳🥳
We want to keep spreading the love, growing our Pack - and having some fun as we go!
Sooooo please add a comment to this post and mention a doggy (or dog mom or dad) who you think would love it at TBL. We’ll pick at random and the winning doggy gets 3 complementary days of daycare 🐶 and a Bath and Brush 🛁 💅 Aaaaaaaand so does your doggy! 🥳🥳🥳
Let’s goooo ❤️
As the sun sets on the first day of the new year, we want to say a big thank you to all of our doggies, cats, dog and cat moms and dads of The Barking Lot for everything we have shared together in 2022 and we are so so so excited for everything that is to come in 2023! Thank you for trusting us with your babies ❤️🥰
Happy New Year from me and my incredible Care Crew to you and yours ❤️
Love,
Di
Our Pack formed some very strong bonds in 2022 and we can’t wait to see new friendships being born at TBL in 2023! ❤️🥳
Our Pack is looking forward to 2023 like 👀👀🥳🥳
Today, the Barking Lot turns 6 months old ❤️As I take a moment to breathe during busy season to post this, I can't believe we have come this far.
We have built TBL from scratch. Brick by brick. All the while thinking about how best to cater to our doggies (and cats!).
Over these months, our Pack and our Care Crew have grown, but I will forever be grateful to my OG Care Crew who have stuck by me through all our ups and downs from before we even opened our doors. This one is for you, Miss Mau, Aldoy, Bobby, Tito and Marcel. I love you guys! ❤️
I'll never forget our first ever Daycare and Hotel guest, sweet little Piper and her moms Carys and Tiffany, who put their trust in us before anyone else did.
And to my darling hubby who simply said 'Let's do it!' when I told him it would be my dream to open a doggy daycare - thank you ❤️
I can't wait to see what the future holds for my beloved TBL and I'm so grateful for all the barks filling my ears as I write this 🙏🥰
Love,
Di
Santa was very busy this weekend doling out cuddles galore to our Pack.. Turns out everyone was on the nice list this year 😀❤️☃️❄️
Thank you to all our doggies and dog moms and dads for coming out to celebrate TBL's first ever Xmas. Our hearts (and tummies) are full!
Merry Christmas from our Care Crew to you and yours! 🎄🥰
Meet Kiko and Milo - these gorgeous brothers came to us from two beautiful, kind ladies who work tirelessly to help stray dogs and cats. They've been with us since July and are very much part of our TBL family.
We've been trying to help find them a home, but to no avail. And then came the BEST news ever - they have been adopted by a loving family in the US!!! We couldn't contain our excitement 🥳🥳
After a long journey, we're so happy to let you know that he has arrived at his new home and looks dapper in his little sweater. Milo will follow shortly and we can't wait to see them reunited.
It's been a long journey with these beauties and we had a Care Crew party to celebrate their time with us and all the adventures they are bound to have in their new home. It was a bittersweet goodbye and though there were tears, we are SOOO happy to have been a chapter in their story.
We miss you, Kiko. And we're taking the best care of Milo till he flies to join you, sweet boy ❤️
Love,
Di
❤️❤️❤️
Oreo: The weather is great but I'm feeling a bit chilly this morning
Toby: Say no more ❤️
🇦🇪
Meet Buddy - he's the cutest little boy and one of our absolute favourites! Buddy has endeared himself to all our Care Crew and our Pack and we're sure you can see why - just look at his little face! ❤️
He's always dressed to the hilt and ready to party with his besties 🥳
His sweet mama worries about him when he stays over at our Hotel because he tends to get anxious but our Care Crew is always eager to step in. At TBL, Buddy is hand fed and cuddled through the night 🙈❤️
We love this little boy and are so happy he's living his best life with us ❤️❤️❤️
🇦🇪
Glamour shots all day long with these cuties ❤️
Who says our doggies have to have all the fun? Say a big hello to some of the beautiful kitties of The Barking Lot 😻❤️
Care Crew: Hey Nubia, you seem to be awfully comfy with Sox. Are you sure he won’t mind you sitting on him?
Nubia: Of course not! He’s my new bestie 😃❤️
🇦🇪
Say Hello to our Pack of Posers🤩🤩
Meet Toby ❤️ - This one is very special to me. Toby is a TBL regular and our first ever Mansion guest!
He was adopted as a naughty 6 month old by a looooovely couple and has a cat, Tasvy, for a brother 🥰
A regular joker, he always has us in splits with his antics, especially with his besties Pudding, Ruffles, Oreo and Winston. We love him so much and are so happy his mom badgered me (😂) before we even opened to see pictures and videos of this new facility. She probably helped us get across the finish line faster 😂❤️
Toby’s favourite is our Doggy Express driver, Bobby, to the point that we regularly refer to our van as our Bobby Express 🚌❤️
Toby will forever have a special place in our hearts and will most definitely always have Mansion 3 reserved for him ❤️
Love,
Di
A slightly nervous Fluffy met Shadow for the first time today. True to himself, Shadow shared some jokes and put Fluffy right at ease. Shadow’s reward? Lots of wet kisses ❤️😍
🇦🇪
Cool winter days are here and our Pack is basking in it 🥳🥰
🇦🇪
Happy National Day to our home, the UAE! 🇦🇪The best home in the whole world! ❤️
Meet Caju and Mandioca, the friendliest siblings, whose names are Portuguese for Cashew and Cassava ❤️
They were rescued by a lovely couple from the streets of Brazil and moved to Dubai, where they are living their best lives ❤️😍 Lucky them and luckier us for getting to spend so many happy days of play with these two cuties 🥳🥳
Sundays are for kisses and cuddles ❤️🥰
🇦🇪
Koko: Hey Muchie, guess what?
Muchie: What?
Koko: IT’S THE WEEKEND!
Muchie: YAYYYY!!! 🥳🤩🎉

Bestie goals at The Barking Lot ❤️❤️
It’s amazing how our doggies form such a deep bond with all our Pack, but they surely have their favorites 😍🤩
Our Pack is growing and we love getting to know our beautiful doggies every single day. Meet some of happy new faces at The Barking Lot 😃❤️
Waiting for the weekend like…. 🤪🤩❤️
Same same, but different ❤️🥰 Our darling Pack of happiness
Meet our Halloween winner, Dupree! 🎃👻
Dupree is one of our regulars and the sweetest boy! He lost his eye tragically when he was attacked by a much bigger dog and went through three long weeks of surgery to try to save his eye. It was eventually removed, but don't please don't feel an ounce of pity for this champ! He licked his mama's tears away when she visited him at the vet and hasn't in any way let the experience dampen his spirit.
He dressed as a pirate for Halloween and we are obsessed! So many lessons to be learned from this darling boy. In his mama's words, his energy made them heal ❤️
We can't think of a more deserving winner of our first Halloween! We hope you enjoy your three free nights in our Mansion 🥳 We love you!
Pinch me! Four months in and we have been voted Favourite Doggy Daycare in the UAE at the Pet Industry Awards 2022.
As a new business owner, I know what they mean when they say it takes a village - in our case, it’s our beautiful and talented Care Crew who make our dogs (and dog moms and dads) happy every single day. We are nothing without them.
To our amazing clients, thank you so much for trusting us with your babies and for all the love you give us. We are nothing without you.
To my darling hubby who supports my dream every step of the way, thank you. I am nothing without you.
We promise to keep learning and growing and being the best we can be to all our doggies, now and always ❤️
Love,
Di
Posing our way into the weekend like…
Our doggos came dressed to seriously impress this Halloween! What a gorgeous Pack we have ❤️ Thank you to our dog mums and dads for all the effort. It made our day and we had a lot of laughs! 🥳
The winner for best dressed will be announced this week once Care Crew votes are in 😂
We better see our Mediums and Bigs bring it for our Xmas party! 🥳🥳
We've had an amazing day hosting and at their Rehoming Day ❤️ Lots of happy hearts and wagging tails.. It makes everything we do worthwhile, especially since our Bella came to us from an event like this.
We'll never stop supporting these beautiful souls who work tirelessly to find forever homes for our doggies 😍Thank you for the opportunity to host you, Fatima and Rawan.
Find us a a more photogenic Pack of cuties.. We'll wait! ❤️ Part 2!
Happy Friday and almost Doggo-ween from us to you 🥳🎃
Sooo guess what? This tiny, starving cutie was crying under our Doggy Express on Friday just outside The Barking Lot and we knew we had to do something......
We're having him vet checked and vaccinated and he will be our official house cat. We put his name to vote with our Care Crew and it's been decided.
Meet Officer ❤️ The sweetest, cuddliest little guy and we couldn't be happier!
To say we've had the best day is an understatement! It's Friday and we had an impromptu splash party for our darling Minis... What fun we had! We live for the days we make our doggies super happy ❤️ What an amazing start to the weekend 🐶
How many Care Crew did it take to capture these Cavie cuties? 🤔
Tis the season! 🥳🎄Mocha, Toby and Oreo are getting a head start on holiday carol practice and they are (kinda) very melodious. All doggies are welcome to join their cheery choir 🤗☃️❄️
On that note, our Hotel suites are fast booking out, so please get in touch at 050 454 BARK (2275) to make your bookings over the holiday season ❤️🤗
Meet Batman - yes, you read that right! 😂❤️ He's the happiest little guy and it makes sense. He has the best mum!
She lost her dog tragically a year earlier and was still grieving when she got a call about this boy - starving and left to die in the desert! 😩 She knew it was fate. He needed her and she needed him. Lots of vet visits and TLC later, Batman is looking and feeling his best and we are super lucky to have him in our Pack!
He enjoys his naps so we worry he'll miss the Bat-Signal but with a face so cute, he's easy to forgive ❤️
Meet Juno - our absolutely gorgeous Border Collie mix who has lived in four different cities with her loving mum and dad.
She is a very young mum herself and was found roaming the streets in Brazil with her young puppies - which explains her name (from the movie, Juno!)
She is a lucky girl to have found her forever home with a beautiful couple who brought her all the way to Dubai, where her adventures continue. We're so happy to have you in our Pack, you stunner!
Come join us on Sunday!
