BarkBox is a monthly subscription box for dogs. Each monthly box contains a combination of 4-6 treats, toys, and hygiene products that have been hand-selected and approved by Scout (the dog), head product tester for BarkBox. All treats included in the boxes are sourced from the USA and Canada, and chews are sourced from the USA, Canada, South America, Australia and New Zealand, so you can be assured that your pet is only getting safe, high-quality items. Boxes can be customized based on the size of your pet, and you can add an extra toy to your box for an extra $9/month. We have been getting BarkBox for ages and have always been satisfied with them.

BarkBox ships via DHL Global Mail (starts out with DHL and is delivered by the Post Office) and took just a few days to arrive this month. I generally expect it to arrive on or around the 20th of the month.

BarkBox does such an amazing job with their themes each month.  Everything fits together perfectly from the information card to the products to the interior packaging paper.

The December 2017 BarkBox theme was “Dogsmas in the City.” Our Small BarkBox included the following items:

~Clark’s Fuse Free Lights ($10):  A tummy-safe t-shirt rope toy with two squeaker bulbs with and one loaded with corn starch.  I foresee lots of tug-o-war with this!

~Norm the Nutcracker ($10): Norm is double stuffed with fluff and has a classic squeaker inside.  He’s also adorable and will be great for fetch.

~My Doggy Soft-Baked Cookies (Salmon) ($10): These treats are made in the USA out of only the highest-quality ingredients.  They are soft and my chewy – just what my dogs love!

~Koha Jerky Strips ($12): These are made in the USA without corn or soy.  And they were another huge hit with my dogs. Buster (you can see him below), could barely sit still long enough for a picture with these next to him!

~Butcher’s Block Pet Treats Beef Knee Cap ($3): Once again this was made in the USA and was another huge hit with my dogs. There was a big fight about it, and I don’t know who got it first, but I have seen each of them chewing on it.  Maybe they figure out how to share?

All totaled the December 2017 BarkBox had a value of $45.  I just love BarkBox and can’t say enough great things about the quality of the items or the value of the boxes.  Also, I have never had an issue with a missing item, wrong item, broken item, etc. and that is saying a lot because I have been a subscriber for over five years.
