Store Hours
Our hours have changed.
Effective immediately, we are no longer open until 8pm on
Thursday evenings. Beginning Monday, October 9th, we are
bumping up our open time from 7am to 8am. Please make note that our new hours of
operation will be 8am to 5pm Monday through Saturday. We do apologize for any
inconvenience this may have caused.

New Format
The newsletter gets a name, a stylish
look, and some cool features.
Our newsletter has been given a
much needed face lift. We are using a new tool that allows us to send the
newsletter out safely and abides by the
CAN-SPAM Act of 2003.
Our mailing list members'
information is a top concern of ours, and we wanted to provide a means of
protecting that information from illegal spammers who would collect your info
and bombard you with junk. With this new tool, your information is very secure.
We also now provide you with a means to cancel your subscription - if you no
longer wanted to receive mailings from us. A link to unsubscribe can be found at
the bottom of the page.
If you wanted to send a copy of
Barking Dogma to a family member or friend you can do that through
another link found on our newsletter.
We have taken the steps to
provide you with a professional looking and informative periodical that we hope
you will enjoy.

encouraged to bring your favorite cooked Pumpkin Recipe to be judged.
Bring your lawn chairs and
blanket and stay for the double featured movies: "It's the Great Pumpkin,

Name The Dog Contest
Our mascot needs a name.
This contest has been extended to
run through October 31st. We ask that you post your suggestions in the
Contest Forum on our website. Feel free to post more than one entry! There
will also be a drop-box at the Barking Dog for those who feel inspired on the
spot. We will post these 'on-the-go' inspirations to the forum for you.
After October 31st, we will pick
our top 10 favorite suggestions and post them to the forum. You will then be
invited to return to the forums to vote for the name you like best. You are
welcome to post your own feedback along the way, especially if there's a name
that you think is particularly apt.
The winner of the "NAME THE DOG"
Contest will win their choice of a Barking Dog T-Shirt or a $15 gift
certificate. The first and second runner up (2nd & 3rd place) will each get five
dollar gift certificates.
