🐾 Barksby for a Cause: Running for PHAB
At Barksby, we’re not just passionate about caring for dogs — we’re passionate about making a difference in our community. That’s why 100% of our profits will be donated towards the Barksby London Marathon Charity Fundraiser, supporting the incredible work of Phab.
About Phab
Phab is a UK charity that brings together children and adults — with and without disabilities — to enjoy activities, build friendships, and create opportunities for everyone to thrive. Through clubs, residential holidays, and inclusive projects, Phab helps break down barriers and make inclusion a reality.
LONDON MARATHON - APRIL 2026
Barksby will be taking on the full 26.2 miles of the London Marathon in April — dressed in a giant inflatable golden retriever costume 🐶.
Yes, you read that right! Our team will be bouncing, waddling, and tail-wagging their way across London’s streets to raise vital funds for Phab — proving that a little bit of silliness can go a long way in supporting a serious cause.

About Us
Welcome to Barksby – Where your Furry Friend gets the Ultimate Tail Wagging Experience!
At Barksby, we believe that dogs aren’t just pets — they’re family. Our mission is simple: to bring joy, comfort, and convenience to dogs and their humans through memorable, supportive walks and thoughtfully designed accessories that cater to every part of a dog’s day. Whether it's mealtime, playtime, bedtime, or walk time, we’re here to make life more fun, functional, and fabulous for your furry friend.
We’re not just another dog walker or pet store. Barksby is a curated space where quality meets personality. Every walk is thoroughly thought through and catered to fit around you and your dog's needs. From cosy beds to squeaky toys, and from stylish collars to hilarious costumes, every product is chosen with love, tested for tail wags, and backed by our commitment to quality. Oh, and did we mention? We offer free shipping on every order, and all profits are being donated to a charity fundraiser for PHAB, because pampering your pup should be simple, stress-free and full of benefits.
Barksby Walks!
Barksby Walks provides every dog with the perfect blend of exercise, companionship, and care — from energetic countryside group walks, to one-to-one walks/check ups on older dogs or younger pups. Our fully insured, DBS-checked, pet first aid-trained team tailors each experience to your dog’s needs, remembering their favourite routes, quirks, and happy tail wags.
With training experience for both puppies and adults, we welcome dogs of all sizes and personalities across Oxford, Abingdon, Wantage, Didcot, Reading, Henley, Newbury, and surrounding towns and villages within 10–12 miles. Contact us today via the 'Barksby Walks' page or 'Contact Us' page.
Eat: Happy Bellies, Happy Dogs
Food is love, and at Barksby, we believe that mealtime should be more than just routine — it should be a moment of joy and connection. That’s why we offer a carefully selected range of bowls, bottles, and feeders designed to make eating a clean, efficient, and delightful experience for dogs of all sizes.
From stainless steel anti-slip bowls to portable hydration bottles perfect for hikes, our products are built to last and easy to clean. Our slow feeders encourage healthier eating habits, especially for pups who eat like there’s no tomorrow. We know how important it is for your dog to get the nutrition they need, in a way that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.
Play: Squeak, Tug, Chew, Repeat
There’s nothing better than seeing your dog zoom around with pure excitement. At Barksby, we’re passionate about playtime — because it’s more than just fun; it’s essential for mental stimulation, emotional bonding, and physical health.
Our Squeaky Toys are a fan favourite, bringing the perfect amount of chaos to every day. If your dog loves a good chew, our Molar Toys are designed to promote dental health while keeping those chompers busy. We also carry Training Toys that help reinforce good behaviour through interactive play, and a whole range of Fun Toys just because your pup deserves it.
Whether your dog is a relentless chewer, a fetch fanatic, or a tug-of-war champion, Barksby has the toy to match their playstyle — and their personality.
Sleep: Dreamy Comfort for Every Dog
A well-rested dog is a happy dog. After a long day of barking, playing, and tail-chasing, every pup deserves a cosy retreat. That’s why our beds, blankets, and mats are designed with comfort, support, and durability in mind.
From orthopaedic memory foam beds for senior pups to soft, snuggly blankets for those chilly nights, our sleep products offer the perfect spot to rest, nap, and dream. Our mats are ideal for crates, travel, or just an extra cushy layer on the floor. Stylish enough to blend with your home décor and cosy enough to keep your dog coming back for more snuggles, Barksby sleep accessories are love at first flop.
Walk: Strut in Style and Safety
Every walk is an adventure — and your dog should be equipped for it! Our collars, leashes, and harnesses combine functionality with flair, giving you peace of mind and your pup a chance to show off their style.
Whether you're exploring the city streets or heading off-trail, our gear is designed to be secure, comfortable, and easy to use. From adjustable no-pull harnesses to reflective leashes for evening strolls, we focus on safety without compromising on aesthetics. And because we know every dog is different, we offer a range of sizes, styles, and materials to suit all breeds, shapes, and temperaments.
Walking your dog shouldn’t be a chore — it should be a moment of connection. Barksby makes it effortless.
Wear: Fashion Meets Function
Let’s face it — dogs look adorable in outfits. But at Barksby, it’s not just about looking good. Our costumes, T-shirts, and jackets are designed to keep your dog comfortable, warm, and protected from the elements — while turning heads, of course.
Whether it’s a spooky Halloween costume, a fun slogan tee, or a waterproof jacket for rainy days, our clothing line is made with soft, breathable, and easy-to-wear fabrics. Our designs are vetted for wag-approved fit and comfort, with sizes that range from teeny tiny to extra large.
We believe that style should never come at the expense of comfort. That’s why Barksby wearables are made for real dogs — ones that run, roll, scratch, and snooze in their outfits.
The Barksby Promise
We started Barksby with a simple idea: dogs deserve the best. And dog owners? They deserve a place that understands how deeply we care about our four-legged friends.
Every walk, or product we sell, is an extension of that belief — that dogs are family, and family deserves the best.
Whether you're here for a dog walk support, puppy caring, a stylish new collar, a cosy blanket, or the toy your dog will never want to put down, we’re so glad you found us. From our family to yours, thank you for choosing Barksby.
Join the pack. Wag more. Bark better. Welcome to Barksby.
