March 2018 Barkbox Unboxing + Review

The theme for our March Barkbox was Academy of Fine Arfs. The toys, in particular, stayed true to the theme (and they're super funny/cute). The box included 2 toys, 2 treats, and 2 chews. The total value of the box is $47 USD (prices based on barkshop.com). Please read on to see what was included in our boxes, as well as a code for a FREE Barkbox!

TREATS:

13 (1 of 2)-2.jpg

Beef Woof Stix (value: $7 USD)

  • Made in the USA by Happy Howie’s, Inc
  • 2 pack, each stick is ~ 11” (net wt. 2.6 oz)
  • No corn, wheat, nitrates, or soy
  • Breaks easily into smaller pieces
  • Ingredients: Beef, rice flour, sodium lactate, salt, dried cultured skim milk, garlic, citric acid, natural mixed tocopherols, vegetable oil, and rosemary extract
  • Our Barkboxes typically only come with 1 chew, so this was a cool little surprise! One for Momo and one for Bear! This is by far Bear's favourite item in this month's box. Finally a chew that is long enough for a dog his size!

Painter’s Pallet Treats (value: $8 USD)

  • Round, soft & chewy treats
  • Net wt. 4.5 oz (127.57 g)
  • Made in the USA by Blissful Biscuit
  • Ingredients: Pork, oat flour, tapioca starch, brown rice syrup, glycerin, blueberries, carrots, rice flour, flaxseed, canola oil
  • Guaranteed Analysis: Crude protein min 11%, crude fat min 9 %, crude fiber max 2%, 5002 kcal/kg - 27 kcal/treat
  • Momo's pick for Treat of the Box - he loves soft, chewy treats that kind of just melt in the mouth. We like how easy it is to break these treats into tiny pieces for Momo's training sessions.

Starry Bites Treats (value: $8 USD)

  • Soft and chewy chicken treats
  • Net wt. 4 oz (114 g)
  • Made in the USA by Bark
  • No wheat, corn, or soy
  • Ingredients: Chicken, glycerin, salt, acetic acid (preservative), pea flour, zinc propionate, mixed tocopherol (preservative), rosemary extract (flavour)
  • Guaranteed Analysis: Crude protein min 28%, crude fat min 14%, crude fiber max 2%, moisture max 24%, 3900 kcals/kg - 8 kcal/treat
  • We also enjoy using this treat for training sessions because it doesn't produce massive amounts of crumbs when we break it into little pieces. 

TOYS:

Vincent Van Squirrel (value: $12 USD)

  • 8” in size - recommended for medium to large sized dogs
  • Long shreddable tail with tube squeaker body
  • This toy is super detailed and adorable. The big, bushy tail is meant for shredding, so this toy is perfect for Momo (he has a weird obsession with plucking fur from things).

Paint Tube (value: $12 USD) 

  • Comes in 2 sizes (we received size large): 
    • Small: 8” with rope, classic squeaker (for small to medium sized dogs)
    • Large: 10” with rope, grunt squeaker (for medium to large sized dogs)
  • T-shirt rope, soft and stretchy
  • Paint tube portion is stuffed with fluff
  • We (humans) really like this toy!  Momo LOVES to repeatedly squeak his toys and this grunt squeaker is not too loud or too shrill. It actually sounds a bit like ducks quacking. Super zen.
