Owner

Portia left the hectic world of internet marketing to join the Central Bark™ pack in 2006. From her pre-school days helping her next door neighbor - a Siberian husky breeder - to training with an Olympic equestrian trainer in her teens, Portia has been involved with large and small animals for her entire life. In fact, she reports that she can't remember a time in her life when she didn't have at least one four-legged creature to feed before her dinner!

After surviving the internet bubble burst in 2001, it was only a matter of time before she realized that she needed more than a few pixels on a page to keep her motivated. When she began searching in earnest for a business to help her realize her dreams of working with animals - and dogs in particular - she quickly decided a doggy day care - and Central Bark™ - was the way to go.

Portia is pictured with her two dogs, Yumi and LeelooDallas. Not in the picture are her two cats, a rotating population of exotic frogs and her husband, Anthony.

FAQ #16

Q: How are the new dog introductions handled?
A: During your dog's behavior assessment we will determine the rate at which your dog is ready for group play. Only when we and the dog are comfortable will group play begin.

Dog of the Month!

Congrats, Bailey!

Philadelphia, PA February Dog of the Month!

Bailey has been with us for quite some time and though we have wanted to make this sweet pup dog of the month our little man doesn't care for the camera to much . Never the less we got one and are so happy to finally have him as our dog of the month !

Our Foster Dog

Stoli

Stoli is a wriggly, happy pocket pittie full of love. She adores attention, but can amuse herself with a toy or bone while she lays near you. While she hasn’t had much practice yet, she shows a lot of promise in developing her couch potato skills after a long walk or jog by your side. She is a very happy girl – happy to meet everyone she gets a chance to, happy to see the staff coming in to our shop every day, and happy to eat her dinner. We’ve been working with her on the agility equipment and she picks up new skills very quickly – she’s highly food motivated! Read my story.
