Barkley

2012-2025

Barkley was more than a beloved family dog—he was a loyal companion, gentle guardian, and quiet healer. He was adopted into our family in 2014. For 11 years, he stood faithfully by our side, offering comfort, strength, and an unspoken wisdom that left a lasting mark on everyone who knew him. His soulful stare, unwavering love, and courageous spirit continue to inspire everything we do at Barkley House Publishing.

Barkley House Publishing was founded in honor of our beloved pup, Barkley, whose loyal, gentle spirit inspires everything we do. After publishing two books of our own, we experienced firsthand the challenges and triumphs of independent publishing. That journey ignited a passion to support other authors who are ready to share their stories but may not know where to begin.
