Meet the real boss—Bailey!
Our Russell Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, English Cocker Spaniel, English Springer Spaniel, and Rottweiler mix. He’s always right on time for the most important deadlines: breakfast, treats, dinner, and walkies!
Meet Bear, the office junior!
A Golden Retriever, Labrador Retriever, and Border Collie mix. Known for his mischievous antics and playful pranks, but always ready to dish out cuddles!
Duke, our inspiration
Our beloved little scamp and best friend, we miss you more than words can say. Thank you for leaving paw prints on our hearts that will last a lifetime.
RIP 1999-2019
Creating Bark Appétit has been a long-time dream of mine since becoming a certified canine nutritionist. I’m passionate about what I feed my fur-babies, and after seeing Duke thrive for 20 years, I’m convinced I was onto something. That’s why I created Bark Appetit—to share this knowledge with others.
