Very disappointed

I bought the cake for my dog i payed over £10 i wasn't pleased with it, i wanted to put a candle on but it was so hard to get the candle on, it was very dry, if you put cake on the box you would expect it be a cake not a rock hard cake. Very disappointed

Well apart from my mistake of not ordering his cake a wee bit earlier Mr Rafferty McCafferty my Miniature Schnauzer absolutely loved his cake ....he wolfed it down ..always a good sign that the ingredients were good.So the cake itself was beautifully decorated with a lovely ribbon and I did a short video with the candle lit.A great product.

Really easy to order, items arrived broken sadly though

Really easy to order. Unfortunately the baked items arrived, with some of them broken. As they are gifts it has detracted a little from overall impression. Efforts were made to reduce this through using bubble wrap in the packaging but they still arrived broken nonetheless.

It is excellent treats for dogs.

It is easy to order from a good rage of treats. My dog loves all the treats I have bought so far. The company makes treats to suit all festivals such as Halloween, Christmas, dog birthdays and others. I Would recommend Barking Bakery to anyone.

Cake rock hard, dig wouldn’t eat it

Purchased an Iced Woofin cake for my dogs birthday, it was a special celebration as he survived spinal surgery and we didn’t think he’d be here for his birthday. Cake was so hard, difficult to break apart and icing was solid and my dog couldn’t break it, he wouldn’t eat it ( and he normally eats anything). Complained to Barking Bakery and still waiting 3 days later for any response. Really disappointed and poor customer service 😡

Why would you put an air freshener in with food!

Air freshener in with the dog food for me a big no no, made everything smell off. The cheesy popcorn that is usually very pungent in it's cheese aroma just smells like the air freshener. Also please update your website to separate the hen popcorn out of the section labelled pupcorn, garlic is poisonous to dogs and is just not worth the risk.
