HOME ALONE
Do you worry about your best friend home alone all day - bored and getting into mischief or feeling guilty leaving them in a lonely small kennel?
Dogs are social pack animals that need interaction with other dogs and people to remain happy and healthy. No matter how many hugs and kisses you give them when home – your leaving for the day can major anxiety trigger for your pouch. Separation Anxiety in canines often leads to pet parents have returned home to stressed out pups.
The common systems of Separation Anxiety include:
-
Digging and scratching at doors or windows attempting to reunite with their owners
-
Destructive chewing of furniture and personal items
-
Howling, barking and/or whining
-
Urination and defecation (even with otherwise house-trained dogs)
Your dog isn't wild or untrained - they are simply scared and in panic mode unsure what is happening. The Humane Society of The United States says.... "Doggie Daycare is one of the best ways to soothe separation anxiety in dogs."

The Fine Print

AGE / WEIGHT: All dogs must be at least 6 months of age and no more than 65 pounds* In addition, all dogs must house trained (accidents happen) - our floors get steamed cleaned every even day with pet friendly natural products and all guests have 24-hour outdoor access).
We unfortunately can NOT care for Dobermans, Pit-bulls, Rottweilers and/or mixed breed's from this list. We believe there are no bad dogs - just dog parents. However, our approval with the Town of Lansing Planning Board included a "no aggressive dogs" clause.
MEALS: The Barksville Inn serves only premium, grain-free dog food rated 5-Stars by DogFoodAdvisor©. Brands we serve include Blue Buffalo, Natures Variety's Instinct & Taste of the Wild.
You are welcome to bring your dog’s food from home - in any container you choose - to avoid possible digestive issues. Please no bowls or measuring cups - we have quite a large Lost-n-Found basket.
PAYMENT: Payment for Services is due at Pick-Up in the form of cash, check, debit/credit card or via Venmo ($barksville) and/or previously agreed upon payment method with the Innkeeper.
No deposit or prepayment is required. The Barksville Inn never charges additional fees for cancellations, late pick-ups, meals, administering medications, weekends or holiday stays.
VACCINATIONS: Like humans, vaccinating your dog could save them from preventable deadly canine illnesses. In addition, dogs should be treated for flea and ticks (in the summer months at least) as Lyme and other diseases are preventable.
