BarkBox for Small Dogs - Review September 2014

BarkBox is a subscription service that sends treats and toys that are safe for your dog based on their size. They also donate to rescued dogs.

I have two small dogs, a Shiba Inu and a Puggle. They share just one box.

They got their fourth BarkBox a few days ago. The theme was "Yip Yip Hurray! Gimme a B-A-R-K!".



Loopies Letterman Jacket


This toy is a letterman jacket to go with a homecoming theme. It has a little squeaker in it and it claims to be durable. We let Snuggles play with this one for a little bit and then put it in Aki's pin. It's not that I don't believe it's durable, I just don't think the makers of these toys have ever met my dog and her power jaw.

Snuggles now has the lobster toy from last month that has managed to last this long in Aki's pin, despite Snuggles's many attempts to steal it.

UPDATE: Five minutes after I had published this, I caught Snuggles with this toy. The door to Aki's pin must have been left open and she helped herself to the toy she wanted. The sleeves had been ripped apart and the cotton inside was exposed. I had to throw it away. Durable is not a word I would use to describe this toy.

There's not a treat in this world that Snuggles doesn't love. In this picture, you can see Snuggles doing her "up" trick for the treat as Aki stands back and waits patiently.

Etta Says Rabbit Chew


This chew was devoured by Snuggles within seconds. Aki's is still laying in her pin, untouched.

Look at that happy face! Both of the dogs really liked the crinkling noise this toy made. It also has a couple of small squeakers inside that have no chance of surviving Snuggles's bite. This one will also go into Aki's pin so that it will last for a while.

As long as I had one of these in my hand, my dogs were on their best behavior! Both dogs absolutely loved these treats and continued to beg for them even after they were put away.


Overall

After a slightly disappointing Bark Box last month, this one was fun. The dogs, for the most part, love the treats and they couldn't make up their minds on which toy they wanted to use for play. Here's hoping that the toys will last at least as long as the lobster has.

Our next BarkBox is scheduled to be shipped on October 15, 2014.
