Verne the Vulture

We make toys to make your dog go hog wild, with a dog-dazzling array of materials. This Vulture features many of our faves: crinkly wings, a body stuffed with plush and squeakers, and long feathery hair for gripping, tearing and thrashing.

Consuela the Cactus

We craft our original toys with a sense of humor, to surprise and delight your dog—and you! This durable, smiling cactus toy is squeaky, bouncy, and endlessly fun. Underneath, there’s a spiky ball bonus toy—and a not-so-happy cactus!

Dyn-o-bite

Our tugging toys are made with tummy-safe T-shirt ropes, so that your dog can chomp, chew, and tug with less worry for pup-parents. This BARK TNT toy has a tenacious rope pull, which features T-shirt rope and a squawkin’ giggle stick.

Featured treat

Cowboy Cut Steak

We offer mouth watering morsels, made and sourced in the USA. Like many BARK Snacks, our small-batch Cowboy Cut Steak snacks are baked with a grain-free, soy-free, filler-free recipe; they're super-soft and totally craveable.

Pork and Beans

Our very own office dogs, like Noodle the nine-year-old Pug, are the best taste-testers we have on staff. This hearty, high-protein pork snack is made in the USA without wheat, corn, or soy—and Noodle loves ‘em. We bet your pup will too.

Frank’s Flank Steak

A top-grade dog deserves top-grade chews. That’s why we partner with folks like Butcher’s Block, who hand trim and slow roast their steak chew for 3 days, with top-grade beef from Angus cows born and raised in America.
