BarkPark is located two miles north of Glick Road (Muirfield area) off Dublin Road. Look for signs.

We are back! Next summer BarkPark will open again to raise funds for animal welfare. We will now be a once per month event, but will continue to be a members only park. Your $100 membership fee (entry fee will be discontinued) will entitle our members attendance to five events per year. And as always 100% of the money raised by BarkPark is donated to the rescues we benefit in the park. If interested in joining our 2011 season or you would like more information please contact us at membership

When looking for that new family member please be responsible and do not purchase an animal from a pet store. Dogs from pet stores are raised in Puppy Mills. By buying from one of these stores you are not only getting a poorly bred animal with a high risk for health and temperament problems you are supporting the torture of helpless animals.
It is estimated there are ten million homeless pets in the United States. Shelters, Humane Societies and Rescues have many purebred and mixed breed animals waiting for a home. PLEASE MAKE ADOPTION YOUR FIRST OPTION.
If you feel you must purchase a purebred puppy make sure you research the breed and only buy from a reputable breeder.

Todd The Laptop Guy has been incredibly generous, once again.

This animal friendly business has donated a television program to help the dogs at Franklin County Dog Shelter and to support the efforts of BarkPark with our very own commerical.

You can view this information at On Demand from Time Warner or from the Zoe's Friends Website.

Thank You Laptop Guy!

The Pet plates will cost motorists $25 in addition to standard license fees. By state law $10 of the fee goes to the bureau of motor vehicles. $15 will go to the Ohio Pet Fund. Proceeds from the sale of the plate will be used for the spaying and neutering of dogs and cats to curb Ohio's pet overpopulation.
