Corporate Overview
Bark Buckle UP is the recognized innovative leader and experts in pet travel safety. Bark Buckle UP is touring the USA and Canada educating and promoting awareness for pet safety while traveling with our pets. National safety statistics conclude the number of pets traveling in vehicles is now at an all-time high. Most animals travel unrestrained, the corresponding risk to vehicle occupants, pets and first responders called to an accident site is of growing concern. Because more pets now travel with their owners there is a genuine risk. For first responders called to render aid – the challenge of securing a frightened or injured animal before treating victims can be of equal concern.
