Double the Fun: Last Week's Sibling Love at Bark ATL!

What's the only thing better than dropping off one excited, wiggling pup at Bark ATL's back door in the morning?

Dropping off two of 'em, of course!

As we all know, we dog lovers have a hard time stopping at just one canine companion. This week, we saw some of our favorite sibling pairs show up with two-tails-a-waggin'. From the teeny-tiny to the large and in charge, brothers and sisters brought the love--and the fun!

Lucy & Gingersnap
"What, you can't see the resemblance?"

















These two girls might play in separate rooms, but they are some of the sweetest sisters we've ever seen! Lucy, a golden doodle, is a good bit taller than her lil pug sister, Gingersnap. But Ginger's got enough sass to make up for the height difference!

Morgan & Riley













Another adorable sister set! This week, we welcomed Morgan and Riley to our pack (and to our ever-growing Vizsla Club)! They are two very sweet girls who didn't take long at all to warm up to the other dogs. Within an hour of first setting foot in our backyard, Morgan and Riley were dashing around Big Dog Way and making new friends! We love their sweet little howl that they do when they get excited. These girls look almost identical, but both have wonderfully unique personalities!

Madison & Presley













We could never write about sibling love without mentioning these two. Madison and Presley are just wild about each other, and about Bark ATL! The feeling is mutual, M & P! Big sis Madison always keeps a watchful eye on playful little brother Presley just to make sure he doesn't get in to trouble (which, of course, he never does). Madison & Presley love relaxing in the sun together and rooting each other on in their wrasslin' matches with the other dogs. We just love these sweet labs so much, and they adore each other!


Boo Boo & Mocha
These wild girls keep us so entertained (and keep their parents busy, we're sure)! Mocha was just a little girl when she first started coming to Bark ATL, and soon enough, her mom and dad had to get another adorable puppy. So Boo Boo joined the family--theirs, and ours! They are a riot together and love to run circles around the boys. You can be certain that if you bring your big dog to Bark ATL on the same day that these girls are here, your pup will be exhausted at the end of the day!

Hercules & Toby















Any Yorkie lover will tell you that even though these dogs are teeny-tiny, they think they're the size of a Great Dane! These two are no exception. Our friend Hercules brought his handsome brother Toby to Bark for the first time this past week. They are quite a pair together! Hercules (what a great name for a Yorkie!) showed him the ropes, and now they're ready to join our Yorkie crew's goal of taking over the world!


Charlie & Prue













Dainty Miss Prudence and regal Sir Charlie are our resident royal family! We think they look just like a duke and a duchess (see Charlie's duke portrait here). Whether they're lounging in a sunny spot or wrestling with YoYo and Olive, they are simply inseparable. We wouldn't have it any other way, C & P!


Piglet & Sadie Roo

These sisters may not look exactly alike, but they are equally sweet and loving. We adore both of them! We had the pleasure of watching Miss Piglet grow up (check out her puppy pic here) and she's still cute as a button. She loves to show off for her sister! Sadie Roo & Piglet both love every single human (& dog) at Bark ATL and always greet us with wagging tails and lots of lickies!


Mr. Solomon and Luicy

Oh yes, that's Mr. Solomon to you! We love this sweet Shih Tzu boy for his fun-loving attitude and his sharp tuxedo, and now we get to love his sister, too! Mr. Solomon's mom rescued little Miss Luicy several months ago, and she wasted no time getting to know and love all of her Bark ATL people! Like the Yorkies, these Shih Tzus imagine themselves to be about 60 lbs bigger than they actually are. But we love them just the way they are--perfect lap size!


Thank you all so much for sharing your wonderful doggie families with all of us at Bark ATL! See you next week!

Snow Dogs!!!






What an interesting 2010 this has been so far! We had a "Georgia Blizzard" here at Bark ATL and the dogs absolutely loved every second of it! Some were trying to catch the snowflakes as they fell, some were trying to dig the leaves out of the frozen water on the ground. To some of the dogs, this was their first real snowfall! We were glad we got to see their reactions and how they dealt with this changing of the seasons.


"Dakota paws at the snowflakes as they were falling!"


Some dogs even have their very own winter wardrobe! Some of the highlights of winter fashion week were Prada's Juicy jacket and her UGA sweater, Puppi's pink sweater with a light pink trim and Watson's fashionable orange sweater, perfect color to match his auburn hair!



Here are some more adorable pictures of our snow dogs!




"Rosie the Brittany couldn't get enough!"









"Bette Davis would take big mouthfuls of the snow!"







"Boo's an old pro at this snow thing since she's lived in Colorado before!"








"Ripley treads lightly, a change for him!"





We would like to thank everyone for making 2009 the best year yet here at Bark ATL! In a world of corporations, we appreciate your patronage and will always deliver the best in customer service, quality care and LOTS OF BELLY RUBS!!!
