The Barking Dog - Hooksett

We require all dogs to be up to date on core vaccinations, including Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo (typically combined as Distemper-Hepatitis-Parvo), prior to boarding or daycare. Vaccination records are mandatory for enrollment.

Our highly qualified training staff provides behavioral counseling to assess and address your dog’s needs. We focus on building respect, confidence, and communication between you and your pet, using natural methods to encourage positive behavior.

We provide standard nail trims to maintain safe and comfortable nail length, as well as premium nail trims using a Dremel tool for a smoother finish. These services can be added to grooming packages or scheduled individually.

We provide anal gland expression as part of our medical grooming services to address discomfort or health concerns related to anal gland issues.

We provide spacious, climate-controlled indoor-outdoor runs for dogs, ensuring comfort year-round with radiant floor heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. Our facilities are cleaned and disinfected daily, and we offer personalized care, including individual potty walks and exercise options. For pampered pups, we provide cozy indoor pens with outdoor access.

We offer high-quality daycare with sport-turfed outdoor play areas and climate-controlled indoor spaces for safe, active play. Our programs focus on socialization, exercise, and positive interaction, with staff trained to evaluate and match dogs for compatibility. Our Hooksett location features an indoor pool for added fun and enrichment.
