BarkBox & doogyLoot
..
“We are spoiled and overindulged hounds. Now use that computer and order us something.”
Ahhh…the things I do for the pups.
BarkBox is a monthly service where every month you receive a box in the mail with four or more carefully selected products and presents for your dog – anything from bones and treats to shampoos, leashes and innovative new gadgets. And don’t worry…they come in 3 sizes, so you get the right products for your particular pup.
We thought we’d give it a try. Our first box arrived in December.
Look how fun! It even has festive crinkle paper. A party in a box!
Each box comes with a card describing the products in that month’s BarkBox. In December we received…
Treats from Bocce’s Bakery.
Fresh Dog Oatmeal Shampoo. Freedom, Casper & Nikki were horrified that this came in a “treat” box.
Simply Fido Organic Pet Toy…a cute reindeer.
Puppy Cake . I must admit that Red Velvet has me a little concerned. We’re saving this for spring so the pups can eat it outdoors.
Another nice thing…A portion of proceeds from each box goes to help doggies-in-need. If you use this link to start your BarkBox service (https://barkbox.com/r/auAa1kDbui/), Freedom, Casper & Nikki get a free BarkBox and you’ll get $5 off your first subscription.
My friend, Amy, let me know about this cool site…doggyLoot. doggyLoot offers products at up to 75% off regular prices and delivers them straight to your door. My favorite part…all shipping is completely free. Last time we were with the Cross hounds (our friends), they received a package from doggyLoot. It was the Kygen Ginormous Invincible Snake. Nikki snagged it and wouldn’t let it go, so I ordered her one. It is her favorite toy. Since her favorite thing to do with Mr. Snake is squeak him, he’s not our favorite toy.
If you use this link (https://doggyloot.com/invite/29cbbc57) to place your first order, Freedom, Casper & Nikki get a $10 credit and you get $5 off.
Special Note…We’re not telling you about BarkBox or doggyLoot so we can get free stuff, but the programs are there so we figured, why not mention it.
“I love Mr. Snake.”
We have seen Barkbox on a few blogs now. We really need to get Mom to try it for us too. Lightning would love to sink his teeth into that snake and give him a good squeak too. Thanks for telling us about these two opportunities.
Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
Pee Ess – thanks for the nice compliment on our photo – Mom wishes she knew how to use Photoshop, but she can never figure it out.
Wow, lucky doggies. A special gift every month, awesome.
We think we need one of these bark boxes . . . They look great!
Why is it that often their favourite toys are the noisey ones?:)
That BarkBox looks good. Don’t think we have anything like that here.
We have not tried Bark Box before, but it looks like great stuff! I might would have to try the red velvet cake myself. We love Doggyloot. We have gotten some great deals through them. The first picture is great!
What a great box of treats, I bet the pups all enjoyed them!

Oh how great!!! I remember the days when I had a bundle of fabric sent to me every month for 14$$. It was so fun. It was fabric that I would not have bought for myself but ended up thinking of neat things to do with that fabric!! Those days were fun days!!! Smart idea for animals too!!!
I have lived in this house over 40 years, a lot of animals left me in that time!!
We ordered from the doggy loot…will you make sure that you get credit.

We got the credit! Thank you, Stella Rose!
Freedom, Casper & Nikki
I have been thinking about the Bark Box, but really didn’t know if it would contains that my greys would like. It looks like December’s was good.
Shampoo and treats don’t mix. Unless it’s lots of treats after getting a bath.
Thank you FINALLY! An explanation of what Barkbox is and how it works
I keep reading about these magic boxes and at first thought bloggers were being sent stuff for reviewing. So, a box of all that only costs $10? Amazing! A bottle of that oatmeal shampoo would set me back more than that here. Free shipping too. Stuff is so much cheaper in the States, it makes me very jellus!
Just so no one gets too excited…the big dog box is $17 a month.
Lucky hounds!

We love Bark Box and Doggy Loot

Oh, I do love that first picture! I wanna kiss the snoot!! xxx
Pity I don’t live in the US. Barkbox sounds fun!
We won a box from Pawalla, which is a similar service and the dogs loved everything inside! I think it’s fun, because you don’t know what’s going to be in there.

Way to demand what you want!

Oh, boy! Something new to checkout. Pawalla is new to me.
Boy are we SLOW! Thick even. It’s only taken us about a month to work out how to find you AND follow you! Sheesh.
We wish we could get Barkboxes. They always look so interesting and have fantastic stuff. Enjoy that snake.
XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
Well that looks great… but I agree it is MADNESS to put shampoo in a treat box! I also have a squeaky Mr Snake, though different from yours. He is my favourite too I think…..or maybe it is Lola the squeaky rabbit…hmmmm Deccy x
I haven’t heard of either of these services! I love the name Barkbox. Think we need to give this a try.
Your pal, Pip
I enjoyed seeing the dog’s face in the pictures, and you did a great job of explaining Barkbox!
Thanks!
I love this idea!
