Our August BarkBox has arrived and that means it’s time for this month’s BarkBox review, where Daisy and I give you an insider’s look at all the dog toys, treats and surprises that come with the world’s most popular dog subscription box.

Each month’s BarkBox has a new theme and this month, in keeping with the season, the theme is Fairground Hounds.

Full of tasty carnival snacks, games and prizes, the August BarkBox is a real winner!

Step right up for a chance to see what was in Daisy’s box and then snag a coupon to get an extra BarkBox FREE for your own lucky pup.

As with each month’s dog subscription box from BarkBox, this one included 2 fun toys inspired by the theme, plus 2 full-size bags of dog treats and a tasty meat chew. You can expect a value of $30-$40 worth of dog toys and treats in each month’s BarkBox, for as low as $21/month including Free US Shipping. Read on to see what we thought of our August BarkBox.

Daisy gets the large dog box which is shown in all our BarkBox reviews, but whatever size your dog is, they will get the same number of toys and treats in appropriate sizes. Treats are also customized based on whether you specify food allergies in your dog’s BarkBox profile.

We hope you’ll stay for our BarkBox review but if you are just here for the BarkBox coupon, promo code WOOFWOOFMAMA will get you a FREE extra month added to any order of 1-month or more at BarkBox.com/woofwoofmama.

August BarkBox Dog Toys

Ice Cold Chewski Dog Toy ($10 retail value) Packed with fluff for your dog to de-stuff. This giant squeaker toy turns any time of day into Happy Hour!

Cockapoodle Do Dog Toy ($10 retail value) Fun sounds from the crinkle material and ready for a game of tug.

BarkBox dog toys are always super cute and unique, and the BarkBox folks never fail to surprise and delight us with something new in each month’s box. Not every dog gets the same toys in their BarkBox, so here’s a look at some of the variations.

August BarkBox Dog Treats

Pork Dawgs Dog Treats ($5 retail value) Delicious real pork is the the first ingredient in these tasty treats.

Fair Day Duck Dog Treats ($5 retail value) Duck is always a favorite flavor at our house, so these were the first treats we opened!

Pork Stick for Dogs ($3 retail value) This simple pork chew is made in the USA with natural ingredients including Pork, Chickpeas, Pea Flour and Coconut.

We think this month’s BarkBox deserves a BLUE RIBBON, but if you ever receive a toy or treat that doesn’t make you happy or that isn’t suitable for your dog, know that BarkBox will send you a FREE replacement with no questions asked. You don’t even have to send back the unwanted item. They encourage you to donate or share it, and will send you a replacement more to your dog’s liking! It’s part of their Scout’s Honor Satisfaction Guarantee that comes with every delivery.

There are always extras and cool surprises in each BarkBox, so be sure to check the inserts that come with your dog’s box. This month’s extra surprise is a fun Carnival Game for your dog. Spin the wheel and win a prize!

BarkBox Cost and Value

By our calculation, this month’s BarkBox had $33 worth of dog toys and  treats if you were to purchase them all separately.

That’s a great value when you consider that subscription prices start at $21/month with free US Shipping.

In addition to saving money, we also love the WOW-factor and excitement of getting a new delivery of surprises each month. It’s a chance to discover new dog treats and toys that we might not have known about otherwise. And the BarkBox toys are really Instagram-worthy, making them the perfect photo props in addition to some amazing and unique dog toys!
