Bark of the Month – Bark-A-Bout

Congratulations, Bark-A-Bout’s October, 2023 “Bark of the Month,” Slinky!

March 2022 – A Star is Born at Bark-A-Bout

Slinky, the dashing dachshund, has been making hearts melt at Bark-A-Bout since March, 2022. With his irresistible charm and boundless energy, it was only a matter of time before he stole the spotlight and secured the prestigious title “Bark of the Month” for October, 2023.

Speedy Slinky: The Fastest Weenie in Southeast Michigan

Slinky’s favorite pastime is racing, and he’s no ordinary weiner dog! In fact, he’s a two-time champion of the Frankenmuth weiner dog races, earning him the title of the fastest weenie in Southeast Michigan.

His lightning-quick legs and unwavering determination make him a force to be reckoned with on the track.

Master of Tricks: The “Leave it” Maestro

When he’s not racing, Slinky loves to show off his intellect. His best trick is the “leave it” command, a testament to his discipline and sharp mind. Slinky won’t touch a treat until he hears the magic word, “yes.” He’s no pushover, though; he won’t be fooled by words starting with “y” other than the one he’s waiting for. Learning new tricks is his passion, and he’s always eager to work with the handlers at Bark-A-Bout to showcase his cleverness.

Pup Cups and Grand’Paw’rents: Slinky’s Favorite Treats

Slinky also enjoys the finer things in life, like trips to Starbucks

for a Pup Cup and visits to his great-grand’paw’rents, who spoil him with an abundance of toys, treats, and, of course, heaps of attention.

A Cozy Canine: Slinky’s Snuggle Routine

Slinky is all about comfort. His day begins with breakfast, and then he promptly returns to his cozy den, tucking himself under the covers. At home, he won’t rest until he’s nestled on or under a blanket, enjoying the warmth and security it provides.

The Great Indoors: Slinky’s Preferred Habitat

While Slinky loves his outings, he’s undeniably an indoor dog at heart. When taken to the park for a walk, he often “puts on the brakes” or tries his best to lead the way back to the comfort of home or the car, showing his preference for indoor activities.

Slinky’s Human Crush: The Handlers at Bark-A-Bout

Perhaps the most endearing trait of this lovable dachshund is his affection for people. Slinky adores humans more than his fellow canines. If you happen to catch him on the Bark-A-Bout cameras

, you’ll often find him playing a spirited game of follow-the-leader with his beloved handlers, proving that his heart is as big as his ears.

With his speed

, smarts

, and heartwarming personality

, Slinky is undoubtedly deserving of Bark-A-Bout’s “Bark of the Month” for October, 2023. This charismatic dachshund has captured the hearts of everyone he meets and continues to spread joy and laughter wherever his little paws take him.

Congratulations, Slinky, on your well-deserved recognition!
