Bartley’s for Dogs Review & Giveaway

Posted on April 7, 2014 by Ammo

Disclaimer: This product review & giveaway is sponsored by Bartley’s for Dogs.

My new friends at Bartley’s for Dogs recently sent me a fun package of goodies from their online shop.

Bartley's for Dogs Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

With a shop full of fun treats and toys there is something for every pup! My package included a Crinkit Water Bottle Toy, West Paw Hurley Bone, Planet Dog Orbee-Tuff Strawberry, and a Bully Stick!

Now you’ll notice from here on out there aren’t any photos of me with my Bully Stick….and the reason is I was so excited to chew it that mom didn’t even get a chance to take a photo of me with it before I snatched it away to have a chew. At least not one that wasn’t blurry! What can I say, I love a good bully stick!

Now before I get to my other fun treats I wanted to tell you about how Bartley’s isn’t your average online pet boutique. They have a special way of sharing their purpose – which is to help rescue dogs.

Bartley's for Dogs Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

With each order you will receive a tag like this with a cute picture of Bartley on the front, who by the way is half-dachshund!

Bartley's for Dogs Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

On the back of each tag is a unique number that can be used on their website to find out exactly what rescue dog you have helped to save!

After inputting the number you will see some cute photos and a story about the rescue pup (and the rescue they belong to) and how you have helped to save them. What a special way to help the animals in need!

Bartley's for Dogs Review & Giveaway // Ammo the Dachshund

One of my favorite toys that came from Bartley’s was the Crinkit Water Bottle Toy. This toy is unique in that you can fill it with an empty plastic water bottle so your dog can crinkle and crunch it without the fear of them breaking off pieces of the bottle.

I’ve been having a blast crunching my new toy, especially when my mom and dad sit down to watch tv. *wink*
