Memories

‘Sometimes you never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory’

Our beloved dogs are with us for such a short time in our lives that we think every moment spent with them is precious. That’s why the The Big Bark team go to such great lengths to create days out that leave a paw print on your heart!

Over the course of the last few years, we’ve witnessed lots of heart-warming, awe-inspiring, thought-provoking and downright hilarious moments at our dog-inspired events. Here we’ve created a trip down memory lane for you to enjoy. If you and your dog visited one of our events, you might even spot a picture of two in the Gallery. that we want to treasure.

Enjoy!
