The furries September BarkBox arrived a few days ago (during one of my crazy mail days) and the furries were SO excited! Okay, fine. They actually had no idea that any of the box were for them. They just like when the mail lady knocks on the door. And OMG if they actually get to talk to her? They go crazy!
Barkbox ships via DHL Global Mail and took, goodness only 3 days to get to me (NY to MI) once it was actually picked up from BarkBox! It was impressive and gives me hope for DHL to improve their shipping times.
Ohh, I was loving the first look! I saw a bunch of things that, well, I’d never seen before! I love discovering new problems so when I see a box full of “new stuff” I am a happy girl.
The September Barkbox is inspired by back to school and included toys to get the mind stimulated, chews to keep occupied, yummies inspired by the cafeteria lunches and even first aid goods for boo-boos on the playground (okay dog park). I also received a little card that said that I did not receive everything on the information card and got something else my dog would enjoy. Baxter and Buddy don’t mind, so neither did I.
~Wagatha’s Organic Dog Biscuits ($5.48): Is it wrong to admit that I am DYING to try these? I’m not going to of course, but do they really taste like pizza? It’s not like Baxter and Buddy are going to tell me! I’ll actually probably give these to my brothers dogs (he now has 3) because my furries prefer soft little treats.
~It’s Purely Natural Dog Treats ($3.60): This is the item that is not on my information card. I consider these to be more of a chew than just a treat because it takes my dogs so long to eat them!
~VetraCare Pet Liquid Bandage ($7.99): Ohh, I can think of a handful of recent occasions we could have totally used this! It’s not like you can just stick a bandaid on a dog so you basically have to hold something to it to until it stops. I think we’ve used vaseline too? Either way, this is better!
~Aussie Naturals Floppie Koala ($7.99): This.is.perfect! WB and Buddy (he’s the dark brown dog) love to play tug of war and this is perfect for them. It’s soft enough for WB to hold, but also strong enough (it’s got a rope toy inside instead of stuffing) for them to be rough with. Love it!!
All totaled, the September BarkBox has an estimated value of $25.06. It was more than the monthly cost of the box (which again is $18/month if you subscribe for 6 months or more), but wasn’t the most “valuable” box to date. Do you subscribe to Barkbox?
