Hey all! Iām excited to announce that a new dog boarding and doggie daycare facility will be taking the place of Barks & Rec at the exact same location! The Bark Spot will be opening March 6! Please check out their page for more details! I am so excited for them! Please give them a try and support local!
As our last couple days wind down, we do have some items that will be for sale. If you have any interest, please send a message for more details.
It is with a sad heart that I announce that Barks & Rec's last day of business will be Sunday, Nov. 13th. I highly encourage you to take advantage of our services until then.
I personally want to thank all of you that supported this business. Not just the fabulous pet parents, but my staff, family and friends. I still believe this is a much needed service in this area, but with labor shortages and other challenges, I am not able to provide the exceptional service you and your dog expect and deserve.
God bless!

We are not asking for any thing that needs to be bought or costs a single penny this week. We are asking for your help to share this post anywhere and everywhere you can. Our shelter is full. We have no pending applications. We are at a total standstill of being able to help another dog until some of these animals are adopted. Share it to your FB, your Twitter, Insta, send to your dog loving great aunt, put it in your email signature, share it everywhere!!! Anyone know an aerial sky-writerš©?
