About

Bark n’ Roll is more than a canine care service. More than a daycare. More than a training center. We are an opportunity for your dog to be his or her best self; mind, body and soul. Our mission at Bark n’ Roll is to bridge the connection between human and dog and honor the unique experience of the individual through the power of choice. Through a positive, reward-based training philosophy, species and breed-specific enrichment opportunities, and free-spirited social interactions based on solidly built relationships, your dog is able to harness his or her true potential while learning to co-exist harmoniously. Francine Coughlin is a certified dog trainer, CPDT-KA, as well as behavior consultant (IAABC). She is a Massachusetts native. She is the proud mother of rescue pups Teeny (passed on), Nelly, Finnegan, Bettie, Sugar special needs pup Stewie, Squiggy, Mickey Finn, & Pinky as well as one lovely human daughter Ophelia. She is an ABC (Animal Behavior College) certified dog trainer (Honors Graduate), a Associate Certified Behavior Consultant (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants), A certified Cooperative Paws Service Dog Training Coach, an American Kennel Club (AKC) Certified Canine Good Citizen (CGC) and S.T.A.R. Puppy Evaluator, and Founder and President of BnR’s Rock n’ Rescue, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit rescue organization. She is a Past President of the Reading North Reading Chamber of Commerce and a recipient of the 2020 Commonwealth Heroine Award. While living in Los Angeles for five years and working in the film industry, Francine got involved with volunteering at various dog rescue organizations and shelters and found this to be an interesting and incredibly rewarding way to devote her time. In 2010 back at home on the East Coast, she created Bark n’ Roll to incorporate her love for all things canine into a service that promises to bring some free spirited and friendly fun into its clients’ daily routines by getting to know their dogs and giving them the rock star treatment. She specializes in behavioral modification training work with even the most challenged of pups, who she finds are most often just misunderstood by their humans.
