Dog Walking Zen



I just found this organization called BARC literally blocks from my home. They allow the public to walk the shelter dogs from 9am-1pm and then 5pm-8pm Tues - Sat...it is so much fun! So far I have walked a young Pit Bull named Ruffles who took a shining to Aaron...and I walked an old little muffin called Diego. This is part of our nightly thing now...walking these dogs...it's great. Some more info below on this fabulous organization.

The BARC Shelter always needs financial support to help us help homeless dogs, cats, and other pets. Donations go toward the cost of food, board, vet exams, toys, litter, toys, leashes, collars, training crates, etc. Unless specified under one of the categories listed on this page, a donation is considered unrestricted and undesignated.

The Brooklyn Animal Resource Coalition (BARC) is a 501c3 not-for-profit, no-kill, privately funded animal shelter, located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Established in 1987, BARC receives no subsides from the city, state, or federal government. We meet the needs of homeless animals through the assistance of dedicated volunteers, revenues generated from the success of our pet supply business, and from private donations from people like you.
