MEET THE FINALISTS FOR CHAIRDOG

Big changes are happening around here—this summer, BARK officially declared what we've always known: dogs do more than fetch—they help build the brand. BARK is now truly co‑owned by dogs. 

We've invited our furry friends into every corner of decision-making BARK. Dogs aren’t just customers—they’re partners, advisors, and even leaders.

Now, the search for the ultimate Chairdog is coming to a close! This special pup will sit in on quarterly leadership meetings (with a little help from a telepathic dog communicator) to lend real canine voice to the direction of the company.

Without further a-doo, here are the ten wag‑worthy contenders that have earned their spot at the top of the pack.
