My Dog Received Her First Bark Box!

Back before Christmas, we lost our 12 year old dog Buddy. We also have a 6 year old dog named Millie, which did not take his death well. She was lost for days. She cried a lot and was just not doing well.  I decided to purchase her a Bark Box in hopes that she cheer up. Bark Box is a monthly subscription box for dogs. You answer a few questions like size of your dog, any allergies the dog may have etc. I received my bark box back in December. The introduction offer cost me $14.00 USD, because I was a new customer. I did purchase the the deal that was going on at that time for an extra $5.00 to receive another toy. Millie LOVED it. Now, I will not be purchasing the added toy because I found that she just doesn't play with toys, so there is no way she needs more, but the treats are bang on!! She freakin LOVED THEM!! Here is her very first box.

She was so excited when I brought it in from the delivery service.

The box comes nicely wrapped with the cutest wrapping paper.

I couldn't believe how much came inside the box. It was full with fun stuffies and treats. Even Bruin the Cat had to get in and check out the goodies.

Here is what was all in her box.

So the Butcher's Block Bone was quite the thing. Thank goodness I READ the label as it did state that you should not have your dog chew the bone on carpet.  So I put an old comforter from my son when he was little, under her before I gave it to her to chew. But as she started chewing, there was red stain everywhere. I quickly grabbed it and tossed it outside for her to eat, as I just didn't want her to move somewhere to chew it and I not know.

Millie really enjoyed the above treats. They were a great snack size for her and they smelt good. I wish that you can customize the box and get more treats then toys. That would be a great feature.

This newspaper toy is everything.  She does play with it a bit, but the articles are hilarious!!

This toy confused me..... I know it's a ball of some sort, but really not sure what the hell it is.  It confused Millie as well, as she hasn't touched it.

This stuffed owl is Millie's favourite of the whole box (besides the treats of course). She loves playing with it. It is very well made and hasn't come apart yet. I'm super happy with workmanship of it. I was super surprised at how well it was made. I thought with the amount of toys in the box, that they would be not as good quality! 

Millie has told me that she would love to receive this box again. Like I said, if I can structure the contents of the box to include more treats, less toys, then I will definitely be purchasing another month.  Have you purchased a animal subscription box?  What others are out there?  Let me know your thoughts!

Until next time


Millie & Cheryl
