Review: Pet Gift Box June


Many of you know by now of my love for Pet Gift Box, and once again, Gregor and I were lucky enough to get one for June. I was so excited to be able to share new goodies with my pup, and to try new toys and treats.

The theme for June's box was Gone Fishing, with two fish shaped toys and three different treats for Gregor to enjoy.

While both toys squeak, one is made of burlap with crinkle material inside while the other is a smaller rubber toy that would be great for outside play as well as inside.

The treats were a bone shaped biscuit that was a salmon and mango flavor, some crispy salmon skin, and a bag of sushi treats.

Like most dog toys here, these two adorable fishies do double duty by being kid entertainment as well as puppy entertainment. 

The “Catch of the Day” rubber fish doesn't get played with as much, but the Muttface is sometimes picky about what he enjoys, and I think that most dogs would play with it more often. It will make for a good toy for visiting pups to play with.

The burlap “Gone Fishing” toy, however, always gets Gregor in a happy, playful mood when I find it and start squeaking it. He will actually chase and play fetch with it, like the football from January's box.

 Unfortunately, the kids also really like this fishy, and often squirrel it away in their rooms! These two toys are both welcome additions to our little bin.


There were three different treats in this box, each met with different levels of enthusiasm from Gregor.

The Salmon Mango Fish Bone was the first we tried. I ended up breaking it up into three bits, and didn't give it to him all at once.

This was a crunchy treat, and after an initial questioning of it, the Muttface ate it up with no problems.

He wasn't exactly begging for the rest of it, but the next time I brought it out, he at least showed some desire for it.

It didn't smell all that fishy, but neither did it smell sweet, both were kind of what I was expecting; it really just smelled like generic dog treats/food.

The second treat we tried was the Barkworthies Salmon Skin. Gregor acted at first like he wanted it more than air, but once he got this curly crispy bit of skin in his mouth, he decided he had no want for it at all.
I put it in his dog bowl for later munching, but he left it there, eating around it, for days. After a few days, the cat actually snuck into his bowl and stole it. At least she enjoyed the fishy goodness.

The last treats were Ocean Sushi. These treats are slightly larger than a quarter and smell the most like fish. Gregor likes the taste of these chewy treats, and is always excited when I bring out the bag. The only thing about these he does not enjoy is when bits of it stick to his teeth, although he has this issue with just about any non-crunchy treat.



Although the goodies in this box were a bit hit and miss for Gregor, I really enjoy having the opportunity to try out new toys and treats, and it is awesome watching your beloved pup get excited because he knows that the box in your hands is just for him!

You never know when you are going to find your dog's new absolute favorite thing!

If you would like to get the Pet Gift Box and try out new treats and toys with your pup, plans start at $18.99/month.

  2. Jessica, I can see how this pet box subscription would be a lot of fun for you and your pet. I also find it really funny that some dogs will eat up the salmon flavor like crazy, and for other dogs it's not such a treat. Too bad because the Omega threes, I'm sure, are good for their health and their coat. Really funny that the kids like the same toy that Gregor does, you may have to get a second one. Lol

  4. We don't have a pet at the moment, but this box looks like so much fun! Maybe I can figure out someone to gift it to, otherwise I just might plead for a puppy soon! So happy you continue to join us at #FridayFrivolity!
