Hi, my name is Beth
And this time we’re going to do the May 2013 barkbox
Here ya go!
It feels kind of like a light box this time
Oh look, they’ve got paper covering everything this time
Let’s see what it is
And there’s the card and all the items
Let’s take a look at it
Ok It has four items again
This time for Planet Dog, Loving Pets, Bocce’s Bakery and Barkworthies
Now Barkworthies and Bocce’s Bakery are two brands that
I already know from previous barkboxes
And I know that my dogs absolutely love them!
They gobble em up every single time
In fact barkworthies has a bone that my dog will
Actually break into the box to get it - get to it
So I know they like those
So let’s see what it is.
Ok – Here is - Bocce’s Bakery
And we’ve had these before with the same trademark green label
Um this is spinach – kale – apples – spirulina – mint – flax seeds
Sounds really uh – vegan to me
So if you are on a vegan diet with your dog
This sounds interesting
It’s called uh Green Juice
A biscuit revulation
Wheat free – no preservatives – extra yummy – 100% USA –
Low fat – and vegan-pow!
So I was right this is for a vegan feed for a dog
And uh the ingredients are very simply oats, organic rye flour, organic spinach
Apples, kale, flax seeds, spirulina mint - and that’s it!
Very simple list of ingredients
And I know my dogs like um things from this company
They’ve just never had the vegan ones
So I’ll see how they take to this
Ok this I bet - yep! This is barkworthies
But this is more of a generalized bone
Not the rectangular ones that my dog likes so much
This one is – 6 inch odor free thick
Uh – what is it? – Oh!
Free range grass fed 100% beef
That’s all it says – it’s very simple
And I know my dogs are gonna want this
In fact he might come over here in a little while to get it.
And this is Orbee-tuff product
ah Produce?
Oh I see it’s a little rubber thing that looks like a raspberry
Planet dog with treat spot
Oh I see it’s um got a hole in the bottom
So you put treats inside
It’s a very rubbery little thing that’s in the shape of a raspberry
And it says 2% of your purchase funds canine service programs
See your 2% in action at – planetdogfoundation.org
Ok – looks like fun
Uh – another one from barkworthies
Very similar but this one looks more like uh particles
That’s been stuck together in this shape
6 inch natural treat stick – original recipe
Uh where is the - oh this one has a list of ingredients it’s not just beef
it says um.....
in fact I’m not going to read it all
I’ll just put it up on the frame around us
It’s got a long list
So I was right this is a bunch of things that have
been formed into a stick shape
It’s very hard though
So it’ll be really good for chewing
Um here is – Ahhh Loving?
Loving pets I think it is?
Yeah, loving pets with a heart on it
It’s called Grillicious all natural beef treats
And it’s made to look like it’s come off the grill
For the dogs - they’re little round patties
So they look kind of like little hamburgers or something
Ah – it is 100% all natural beef with sweet potato
Gluten free – no by-products – and no preservatives
From lovingpetproducts.com
100% USA ingredients and USA made
And it has the little symbol up here
Bite size – I can’t find the ingredients
Ah!
Well if I find em I’ll put them up on the frame here
But let's see now
Looks like that’s it the last thing in here is a little card
Um it’s – oh I guess it’s a comic card – not trying to sell anything
Just from the barkbox company
It says “Explore”
It’s two astronauts one dog one person
And the dog says “Are you kidding? I only came along
Because I thought it was made of cheese!”
I don’t know if you have a dog that likes cheese
Most of my dogs have always liked cheese – but
One or two of them didn’t
Um it says activity
“our dogs love their goodies, but their favorite thing
in the world is to spend time with their humans.
A great spring activity is to simply take out the leash and
go exploring to a new park or neighborhood.
Send us photos of your adventure!
So I guess you can go to the uh barkbox.com website
And send photos of you and your dog on your
outing together
That sounds fun I might try it.
Let’s see – Yep!
That’s everything in the box
So that’s It for May
And the weather’s warming up now
And so we’ll see what it is for next month
Thank you for listening
Bye
