Oh, it is so a puppy life.
Our pup, Sasha, is a spoiled rotten rottweiler Labrador. She’s crazy and sweet and naughty and lazy and hyper – sometimes all at the same time.
But she’s our baby so we continue to spoil her.
Enter the BarkBox.
Now Sasha’s got a brand new bag…o’ treats! Plus so much more and she couldn’t be happier. This sweet pup signed up for BarkBox and her first box didn’t disappoint.
For those of you who have never heard of BarkBox, go check out their website – barkbox.com – where they create monthly boxes of doggie goodies for your furry friend.
When the December box arrived early this month, we were more than pleased. I figured since we ordered in late December, our first box would be January’s – we were happily proven wrong.
Sasha knew instantly that the mail package was for her…of course, her puppy nose helped determine that.
After patiently waiting for me to open the box, Sasha was delighted to see all the tasty treats and fun toys waiting for her.
She grabbed the Lady Liberty Ball (Bark & Co) right away. In love, this pup was. The ball made to look like the top of the Statue of Liberty had the perfect squeaker and Sasha went crazy. So crazy, in fact, she didn’t hardly notice the good smelling Pepperoni Treats (Nootie No Grainers) but that didn’t last long.
She was so patient waiting for me to open up the box she definitely deserved a tasty treat.
She didn’t seem quite as enthused about the Pretzel (Bark & Co) until my husband showed her she could use it as a tug o’ war toy. Unfortunately, that caused the twisted pretzel shape to only last about one week before it turned into a pretzel stick. But she still wants to play with it, especially since she figured out there is a small squeaker at one end.
The Pawstrami and Rye (Feel Good Treat Company) were not her favorite but if it meant she got a t-r-e-a-t then she was happy. (I, personally, thought the name was a winner, but I guess pups don’t care about that sort of thing.)
The Bully Stick (Butcher’s Block LLC) is one of those treats we try to keep away from Sasha as much as possible. It isn’t for the lack of being a good product, it is more for the fact that our dog likes to scarf down food & treats as quickly as possible creating a choking hazard. This is a personal problem – not a product problem.
Overall, our December box was a tail-wagging hit.
