Earl and Pearl Barker

"May a cold nose always warm your heart" – Pearl Barker

About Me

Howdy, Friends!

My name is Pearl Barker. My mate, Earl and I live on a farm just a bone's throw from Dogtown, USA.

Farm living is the life for us.

Our fur-free friends, Cindy and Kirby Pringle, have written two books about us:

Happy Tails:
Earl and Pearl on the Farm
This delightful ABC book shows us as we go about our farm duties, from picking corn to baling hay to driving the tractor. It will definitely tickle your funny bone!

Happy Tails: The Call of Nature ..
HOT OFF THE PRESS!
When my twin sister Earlene moved out west for her dream job of being a Cat Show Judge, I bought a computer and cell phone to keep in touch. Soon, I became an addicted tech-hound and neglected my duties on the farm. The Barker farm begins falling apart, and Earl decided it was time for action. He took me on a vacation to visit Earlene, in order to disconnect me from technology and reconnect to nature. Look and read about the adventure!
