Ryan Cooper is the co-founder of Barking Orders – a free online resource dedicated to helping reduce the number of
abandoned pets on the streets and in shelters because their owners were
unprepared or unable to care for them. Through education Barking Orders (The Canine School for Humans) hopes
to build awareness in dog owners in a fun and informative way. The services and information they offer will help many families who adopt pets.
Our Toby was a rescue dog, who we adopted when he was five years of age. Learning more about his breed, Chesapeake Bay retriever, helped us help Toby.

Barking Orders was inspired by Jake
the dog, and Ryan’s desire to help dogs thrive in their family situations. A recent guest on my PAWsitive Radio show, Ryan
shared some great tips for pet families.
Barking Order tips for pet families are:
- Ensure your pet gets enough exercise, and the right type of exercise
- Do your research before adopting, know the breed and choose the breed that is the best fit for your family and lifestyle
- Invest in a seat belt for your pet. Having a seat belt saved Jake’s life.
- Choose a good quality leash, and safe toys, and
- Ensure your dog has a healthy diet and good quality food.
