This year the Great British Bark Off focuses on how ‘You’re Never Too Small to Make a Difference.’
We’re doing this with our incredible Bark Off mascot, Daisy Therapy Dog!
We are thrilled to announce the return of the highly anticipated Great British Bark Off 2025! With over 1,000 schools and 300,000 children taking part so far, this year's event promises to be even more exciting.
Join us in June for a fun-filled, barking bonanza of a month. Not only will you have a blast, but you’ll have the opportunity to make a difference by contributing to the welfare of our furry friends.
Mark your calendars and get ready for a barking good time!
Get involved with Bark Off and start small to make a huge impact this June!
Join us for an inspiring event that proves You're Never Too Small to Make a Difference! Designed especially for schools, this event empowers children to see how their actions—big or small—can create positive change in the world. Through the incredible example of dogs, who show kindness, empathy, and unwavering loyalty, pupils will learn how these qualities can help them make a real impact. With interactive activities, heart-warming stories, and a whole load of barking and baking fun, children will discover that by leading with compassion, understanding others, and spreading kindness, they can shape a better future. Don't miss this unforgettable opportunity to inspire young minds to make a difference—just like our four-legged friends do every day!
