We began our lives with a love of animals. Each of us knew that we would
incorporate animals into our lives. We were able to do just that, after a chance
meeting at a dog training class, where we both apprenticed, and ultimately taught,
dog obedience and behavior modification classes. In order to expand our
repertoire of skills, and reach the dogs who “fell through the cracks”, we began
attending seminars and workshops given by leading dog trainers, such as
Suzanne Clothier and Ian Dunbar. It was soon thereafter we founded Taming
Anubis, a dog training business dedicated to humane and thoughtful human-dog
interactions. Taming Anubis focuses on seeing each dog as a whole and finding
the appropriate training style for that individual dog. After a couple of years, we
realized that our clients were in need of an alternative to traditional kenneling for
their dogs. Our answer was to open our homes to our client’s dogs, thus the
creation of The Bark & Call Inn.
The dogs that stay with us become a part of our family; they are incorporated into
our homes and day to day lives. We form lasting relationships with each dog and
their owners. Our canine boarders recognize the drive to our homes and get
excited as soon as they turn down our roads. They know their days will be filled
with fresh air, sunshine, good doggie friends, and plenty of human affection. We
each have created an environment, in our homes, where dogs can be themselves
and their owners never have to worry.
Heather lives on a picturesque New England farm with her husband, Andrew,
three German Shepherd Dogs, six cats, four horses, and soon to be three goats.
Rebecca lives with her husband, Jeremy, their two children, Justin and Megan, a
Golden Retriever, a rescue Greyhound, a Boston Terrier, a cat named Sparrow
(but of course), a ball python, and a hamster. At our respective houses, we can
be found in our dog play yards, sitting in a chair, or swinging in a hammock, (at
least when we aren’t throwing Kongs, footballs, Frisbees, or tennis balls) a dog
on our laps, and a group of dogs happily dancing around our feet.
What began as a journey to find a balanced, thoughtful, humane approach to dog
training led us to create The Bark & Call Inn, an in-home boarding experience that
encourages every dog to be themselves. So many of our clients remark on how
easy we make our interactions with dogs look; we are so lucky that what comes
naturally to us, is what we do for a living. We would like to take this opportunity to
thank all of our clients for making The Bark & Call Inn the thriving business it is
today.
