Bark Shop

Bark Shop Our goal is to spoil your pet rotten by providing personalized, safe, and professional grooming! Our passion for opening Bark Shop came straight from the heart.
(120)

Our owner and self-proclaimed “crazy dog lady” had taken her dogs to the same groomer for over 10 years when her groomer moved away. After trying out several different groomers in the Des Moines area, she realized how lucky she was to have had a groomer that she could not only trust, but also listened to her concerns and treated her dogs with compassion. We decided to open Bark Shop with these key

attributes in mind. We saw that Des Moines needed a new grooming concept where the staff is compassionate to each animal’s situation and treats your pets like family. Habla espanol :)

As we gear up for the back-to-school season, it’s important to consider the safety and well-being of our pets. Here are some ways to help ease the transition:

🕗 Gradual Shift: Adjust your pet’s routine a week or two before school starts.

🐕 Exercise is Key: Ensure your pet stays active with regular walks and playtime.

👍 Positive Associations: Create positive vibes around your departure. Give treats or engage in fun activities just before you head out the door.

🧠 Mental Stimulation: Interactive toys and puzzle feeders can prevent boredom when pets are home alone.

🛏️ Safe Space: Set up a comfy safe spot for your pet to retreat to when they need downtime or when the family is out.

🎒 Put Away Backpacks and Lunchboxes: They often contain items that are dangerous for pets such as gum with xylitol, grapes, raisins, medications, and arts and crafts supplies.

🔎 Check the Chip Day is here! 🔎
As veterinary professionals, you know that microchips can significantly increase the chances of being reunited with a lost pet. But a microchip is only effective if the registration info is UTD!

Help us recognize by making sure to remind your clients to update their microchip information, or taking a little bit of extra time to educate on the importance of microchipping. 🐶🐱

Our microchip lookup tool can assist in finding registration companies: https://hubs.li/Q02Lq6pB0

Let’s make sure every lost pet finds their way home! 🏡💙

Where (and How Often) Do I Apply Sunscreen on My Dog?
Going outside? Grab that dog-safe sunscreen.
sunscreen for dogs

Dr. House says you should apply sunscreen to your dog anytime you go outside for more than a quick bathroom break.

Tips to applying sunscreen on your dog and protecting them from the sun:

Apply the sunscreen liberally, working it into their skin and coat, a few minutes before going out and then every two hours you’re outside. And while sunscreen should be a year-round necessity, you’ll of course want to be especially diligent about application during the summer months. (Sound familiar?)
Apply to sensitive areas, like your dog’s belly, nose and inside of the ears. "Also, some dogs like to sunbathe on their back, [putting them] at risk of skin cancers on their tummy—so be sure to apply the product there, too," adds Dr. House.
Stay in shaded areas and avoid peak UV index times (when the sun is at its strongest), which typically occur midday. Keeping your walks and outdoor exercise time limited to the early mornings, late afternoons and early evenings will pose less of a UV risk to your dog.
Check the pavement. Make sure it's comfortable enough for your dog to walk or run on. If it feels too hot to your hand after 5 seconds, then it’s too hot for your dog to be on, Dr. House says.
And don't forget to bring water with you!
