Barkery (bark + bakery)

A “barkery” (bark + bakery) provides baked treats for animals (especially dogs). A riddle was printed in a 1989 book:
 
Q: Where do you buy fresh dog biscuits?
A: At a barkery.

 
“Barkery” began to be popular by the late 1990s.

At a barkery.
 
20 June 1998, The Gazette (Montreal, Quebec), “For canines with class,” pg. W10:
Gourmet treats for dogs (and horses!) are available from Bugsy & Basset, a 6-month-old catering business unleashed by Roberta Rasori and Laura Starnino. First they went to dog shows with their veterinarian-approved, preservative- free products, which range from $2.50 dog popsicles (with a rawhide stick) to a $4.99 dog-biscuit line (featuring 10 flavours including Three Cheese and Peanut Butter and Jelly). Now their “barkery/ patte- isserie” is delivering products to pet-supply stores around Montreal and at one Ottawa location.
 
27 December 1998, Ottawa (Ontario) Citizen, “Yappy New Year,” pg. D14:
From Woof Woof Waffles to Barkery-fresh Poodle Noodles, the Three Dog Bakery Cookbook (Andrews McMeel Publishing) is filled with 50 recipes for all-natural paw-licking treats

Pg. 83:
“The Barkery,” Alana repeated. “It’s a dog supermarket on Columbus Avenue.”
 
“You mean a pet shop?”
 
Alana shook her head. “Not exactly. This place bakes its own treats and grinds its own meat.”
