At Barkey Barkerson we like to think beyond the breed and let our dog's personalities shine through. We specialize in Dog and People Gear that expresses a dog's true personality. We got our start when we realized when pet parents are asked what kind of dog they have, most people respond with, “a Golden, a Beagle, a Lhasa, a Lab, a Mix, a Newfie, a Chihuahua, a Bulldog, a Cairn, a Boston…”
But when asked to describe their dog, it’s a different story. People then have, “a lover, a licker, a digger, a couch-potato, an athlete, a snuggler, a slobber-puss, a bed hog” – their dogs are, “brave, shy, protective, gentle, loving, intelligent, eager to please, have a big heart, love life, and on more than one occasion are pretty full of themselves”.
We figure we wouldn’t describe our kids as ‘a red-head’, a ‘blonde’, or ‘blue-eyed’, so why should we limit ourselves to a breed when asked what kind of dog we have? Don’t our devoted four-legged partners in crime deserve more? Our mission at Barkey Barkerson is to encourage all dog parents to ‘think beyond the breed’ and let their dog’s personalities radiate and define who they are, rather than what kind of breed they herald from (not that there’s anything wrong with that…). So the next time someone asks what kind of dog you have, you can quickly say without hesitation, “Why an Over-Achiever, of course!”
