I'm much more impressed with this month's box from DuraPaw. Though it's mostly just toys, each toy is unique, but can also be used for enrichment. We have a plush toy, a nylon chew toy, and a rubber toy, all touted to last a fair amount of time. DuraPaw Subscription Box Overview "The DuraPaw Ultimate... Continue Reading →
"Hygge, (pronounced hue-gah) is a Danish word used when acknowledging a feeling or moment, whether alone or with friends, at home or out, ordinary or extraordinary as cozy, charming or special." If you watch the video, you will know that we did not know how to pronounce it at the time. I love getting things... Continue Reading →
This is our first box to come from Saskatchewan! Now we just need to get The Maritimes and territories on board. If you know or come across any from those places, pass that knowledge on to me! Waggle Mail Subscription Box Overview "Canada's only vet-curated dog subscription box. Packed with purposeful toys, treats, and accessories."... Continue Reading →
Last week Ryan e-mailed me to do a 7-month check in to see if I was still happy with how my subscription is going. He asked if I wanted to make any changes, and to let him know if there is anything I'd like to see in future boxes. I'm still fantasizing about an eco-friendly... Continue Reading →

The appeal is the curated arrangement of products from small Canadian businesses. Acre 75 Gathered Subscription Box Overview... Continue Reading →
Why oh why would I add another dog subscription? It's more fun than spoiling children! Not that I have children, but I imagine it would be more fun, because a dog's excitement is consistent. They do need to fix their website though. Trying to go to their shop is not a good time. DuraPaw Subscription... Continue Reading →
Start: Summer 2022 End: Spring 2023 Total Spent: $501.76 including tax Total Value: ~$800 before tax Unlike most subscription boxes, The Maple Box does not do a lot of communicating. There are no annoying requests for feedback, or selling add-ons, no newsletters, or really anything. It's basically radio silence. There aren't even shipping updates. When... Continue Reading →
Manmade Boxer Briefs 7-Pack I decided to go for the 7-pack for these reasons: Free shipping over $30. The cost goes down from $24/pair to $22/pair. Tony goes through underwear almost as fast as he goes through socks. If he likes them, he might as well have lots of them. If he doesn't, he'll still... Continue Reading →
My favourite thing about Woof Crate is the three chews that I get in each box. It's immediate gratification for both me and my dogs. Woof Crate Overview Cost: $45-$55 + Tax + $10 add on toyMultidog options also available. My Cost: $60.40 Value: $65+ Frequency: Monthly Cancellation Policy: Cancel after minimum commitment or pay...
