PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I don’t know about you, but I just loooove getting mail. And when it’s a package, oh boy, that just totally gets my tail wagging! So when I got the opportunity to test out PetBox, a monthly delivery service that sends treats and toys and goodies right to your front door, well I think my tail was about to fall off from wagging too much!

Now PetBox isn’t your average pet subscription box, see they actually allow members to choose their own products that go into their boxes each month. So you can opt to choose exactly what goodies your dog is getting or let it be a fun surprise, which is what I did.

When my box arrived I was surprised to see how many goodies were actually packed inside!

PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

So lets take a closer look and see what I actually got inside my PetBox…..

PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Pet Rescue Decal ($5.99) – these exterior window decals are designed to keep your pets safe incase of an emergency. Mom said she used to have one of these on her door at home when she was a kid and completely forgot that we don’t have one at our house. Well thanks to PetBox now I have one too!

NoviPet Multivitamin ($11.99) – these vitamins provide the essential nutrients for optimal pet health. As I get up there in age I’m sure adding a daily vitamin to my diet can only help! Gotta keep this body in tip-top shape!

Aussie Naturals Duck Toy ($14.99) – this jute and leather toy is designed to be “hard to kill”, and so far so good in my tough paws, because we all know what a “killer” I am!

Earth Heart Canine Calm Spray ($12.99) – this natural remedy mist is easy to use by lightly misting your fingertips and gently massaging the dog’s outer ears or abdomen. I’m pretty sure mom will be taking this along on our next vet visit, as I must admit I get a little anxious when the word “shots” is mentioned.

The Honest Kitchen Smooches ($7.99) – These low calorie sweet treats are made of all human grade ingredients with no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors. When they’re made this healthy you can bet I’ll be getting to eat even more of them!

Clear Conscience Sliders & Tenderstikz ($11.99) – These are the first tender moist pet treats with NO glycerin or “vegetable” glycerin, NO propylene glycol, and NO sugars or syrups. They had me at tender and moist for sure!

Healthy Dogma Cookies ($5.95) – These pet teats are a natural and healthy alternative to processed treats. They’re also the perfect petite size for mom to carry with her during my training sessions.

Now if you add up all the products in my PetBox you would come up with a total of over $70! But guess what, you can get a PetBox subscription for as low as $29 a month!

PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

As you’ll notice from the top of my PetBox, one of my guiltiest pleasures is COOKIES – I’m pretty sure I would stuff myself silly if Mom weren’t there to make sure I didn’t over-eat and only ate the healthy ones. It’s a good thing my PetBox came stuffed to the brim with cookies of the healthy variety!

PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Yummy yummy yummy in my tummy tummy tummy!

PetBox Monthly Dog Subscription Service Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Oh and as an extra bonus, once your PetBox is empty it makes for a super awesome fort (just the right size for little Dachshund bodies) – and don’t worry, you only have to wait a couple more weeks for another box of goodies to show up at your doorstep if you sign up for a subscription.

You can even use the code AMMO20 for a 20% discount on your PetBox subscription.

But my very favorite part about PetBox is that this month PetBox is running a Profits For Paws December campaign. For the entire month of December, PetBox is giving back 100% of it’s profits to pet charities across the United States. Now how can you not love a company that helps animals in need?

My Bags are Packed

My Bags are Packed // Ammo the Dachshund

Last year for Thanksgiving I headed south to North Carolina to visit family. My road trip was so much fun that I’ve decided it was time for another adventure this Thanksgiving. So today I’m on my way (with Trooper too) to Charleston, South Carolina for a couple of days of fun with my family!

I’m sure my days will be filled with lots of adventure, I’m especially looking forward to playing on the beach with Trooper! Don’t worry, when I return I’ll be sure to fill you in on all the fun I’ve had, but in the meantime I’ll be sure to post pictures of my road trip on Facebook and Instagram as I travel.

And if anyone knows any fun dog-friendly adventures in and around the Charleston, South Carolina area post them in the comments section!

Build your own DIY Pet First Aid Kit with Ammo the Dachshund

I’ve meticulously packed my bag with everything I might need for my trip. You can check out what I typically pack for a road-trip, and I always make sure to store the phone numbers for emergency vets in mom’s phone as well as bringing along my DIY Pet First Aid Kit.

I was also super excited when just in time for my trip my November Barkbox showed up at my door.

Packed full of goodies perfect for a Thanksgiving feast of my own I could hardly wait to dig right in!

Of course she let me have a little goodie before the trip to wet my whistle – even the dental chews were mighty tasty.

Barkbox Review & Giveaway

Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Barkbox.

I had heard great things about Barkbox, a monthly subscription plan of goodies for your furry friend, and I was super excited when they offered to send me a box.

Last month I received my very first Barkbox delivery, and since it was the month of October, mom was determined to get a photo of me in my Halloween costume with my box of goodies.

Barkbox Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Only when I got a sniff of all the glorious things inside my October Barkbox, I just couldn’t be bothered to sit pretty in my Ninja Turtle costume for photos. So I ripped off that mask and dove right in!

Barkbox Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

Barkbox is one of those companies that I can really get behind, because not only do they provide a great product, but they also donate 10% of their proceeds to dogs in need.

Barkbox Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

With subscription plans starting as low as $19 a month, there is something for every budget!

Barkbox Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

For such a small box I was surprised at how much they were able to fit in there! And I can’t help but think these would make the perfect gifts for all your dog loving friends this Christmas.

Barkbox Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

I loved the pack of shareable Halloween treats, which I even shared with a few of my doggie friends. And the Mutt Meatballs look like a blast (all you have to do is add a pound of ground beef to the mix and cook).

Of course I wasted no time showing my new toy how we do things in my house.

Friday Fetch: New Products from Molly Mutt

molly muttMolly Mutt is one of my go-to shops for all my bedding needs. Their revolutionary dog duvet & stuff sack make creating & maintaining a stylish, comfortable, and clean dog bed easier – and less costly – than ever before. So I was super excited when I heard that they’ve just come out with three brand-new product lines & a new pattern for their dog bed duvet covers.

First up is the Armor – waterproof liner, perfect for those dogs with a bed-wetting problem (Don’t worry, I won’t tell). Designed specifically to be used with the Molly Mutt beds, this liner will keep your dog’s sleep spot dry from the elements! Check out the video here.

The next new product is the Pillow Pack, it attaches to your Molly Mutt dog bed giving your pup an added pillow. Because pillows aren’t just for people you know! Check out the video here.

Also featured is their brand-new crate covers! I’m not a crate dog myself, but if I was I would totally be dawning one of these. Designed in fabulous patterns it even has a roll-up front door flap for easy access.
