We stumbled upon this lovely shop by chance next to Pizza Hut on Saturday and oh my goodness are we glad that we did. The owners were fantastic as was their beautiful dog. We brought out boxer with us and were greeted enthusiastically and felt very welcome. It is important to my husband and I to buy local and support local artists and this is one of the only places I have found Alaska made dog collars. We have been holding out on purchasing our dog's permanent collar for a month now as we were considering special ordering a leather collar from a leather store in town, but when we saw the Alaska made collars we knew that we had to choose one. We purchased a BEAUTIFUL collar for our dog that is absolutely stunning. It complements his coat beautifully and it suits him so well. It was meant to be, I'm certain! It is wonderful to know that this stunning hand-made collar is one of a kind and my boy is so thrilled.
The owners keep plenty of Alaska made items including collars, leashes, and artwork. They also carry pet clothing, human clothing, and lovely little accessories for you or your pet. They're top notch! We will be returning if we ever need anything and will continue to shop locally first before entering a big box store. Their prices were very reasonable and competitive. You won't be disappointed and neither will your...
Read moreI went somewhat hesitantly into this store prepared for the high prices that high quality comes with. I wasn't sure if we were going to buy anything at all, but did want to look around. I thought it would be a bunch of overpriced cutesy stuff, but a friend recommended I stop in, so stop in I did..
I was shocked at how knowledgable the staff was in all of the items. I wondered around in amazement for a few minutes, but was quickly helped. The staff went over in detail what the pros and cons were of each dog coat that I was looking at. They went as far as to take things out of packages to answer my questions. I enjoyed the conversation and felt welcome while my daughter and I looked around the store. Staff made fun, witty comments.
I left with two sizes in jackets for my dogs. One fit perfectly on my small dog and the other I will be exchanging (with dog in tow to try the next one on). They said they welcomed that I bring him. We were at the store for at least half and hour and spent at least 3/4 of that time with someone actively helping me, which out pushing for a purchase. We will definitely be returning in the...
Read moreI’m a big fan of AK bark. They offer very friendly knowledgeable service. Also as a local business they support other local businesses with the products that they sell. I also appreciate that when they are out of something That you’re looking for they take the time to contact you when it’s back in stock.
Checking back in with another 5 star review. Today is December 29th, 2020. I have to say I don’t really write reviews for places unless I really have something great to say. I truly love this store. They alway give you personal attention. If they don’t have something they will help you find out where to get it or if they can order it. Local, local, local, it is important that we support one another in our communities. Ak Bark truly support other local businesses...
