Welcome to BARK

We’re dog people. Crazy dog people. BARK (that’s us) launched in 2012 with BarkBox, our monthly themed subscription of all-natural treats and clever toys. Since then, we’ve shipped more than 50 million of our favorite things to the dogs in our pack, and we’ve used that accumulated expertise to create our own products, experiences, and content.

At BARK, we know that dogs aren’t pets; they’re family. Our people, crazy dog people, believe that their dogs deserve the best. The best treats, the best toys, the best seat on the couch. Together, we’re driven to be the people our dogs think we are.

Dog people get it.

Who are we

Our founders

Meet the three crazy dog people who created BARK. More importantly, meet their dogs. Henrik, Carly, and Matt founded BARK in 2011, mostly as an excuse to write off "poop bags" on their taxes. BARK began in 2012 when three crazy dog people decided that their dogs deserved stuff that didn't exist yet.

Behind the scenes @BARK

BARK is what happens when a bunch of crazy dog people turn an obsession into a profession. Our office is filled with dogs barking and burping, wrassling and chirping. And laughter. Lots of laughter. Even when we're hard at work creating wonderful new ways to make dogs happy, it's hard to stay serious around here. Just look at that face.
