Noah’s Bark is a family-friendly series with some references occasionally thrown in for adults
The series follows Noah Singleton, a young man who has been willed a barely-in-business pet store by his late uncle, Throckmorton.
If Noah can run the store – named “Noah’s Bark,” after him – for two years and show a continuous profit, he will receive $2 million. The other condition of the will is that Noah not fire any of his uncle’s rather odd employees.
If Noah fails to meet the conditions of the will, the opportunity will fall to his would-be-British older brother Reggie, who is eager to inherit the $2 million himself – even if he has to stoop to subterfuge to make sure Noah fails.
Through an electrical accident at the store, Noah receives the power to communicate with animals. He considers this a nuisance until his golden retriever, Sam, clues him in on how useful such a power can be in the human world.
