Yeah, yeah, yeah …. I know, I haven’t done this series in forever! 🙁 Forgive me, but life has been a bit busy and Bruce Wayne’s health concerns took priority over everything!
Needless to say, we are bringing this series back …. Because, why not? It’s fun for us to showcase our feelings about the month’s subscription boxes and fun for us to give away our favorite box to a friend of ours.
For October, we had the pleasure of receiving boxes from BarkBox, PoochPerks, The Dapper Dog Box and Pet GiftBox. If you are interested in purchasing any of these boxes, I will include links and discount codes at the end of the post.
Below is our “ranking system” for the October subscription boxes we received. I’d like to remind everyone that this ranking system is just for fun and completely based on Bruce Wayne’s preferences. As many of you know, Bruce Wayne is extremely picky and what he likes, your dog might not like and vice versa. This is our way to give back to our supportive friends and let you try a box you might not have had the pleasure of trying yet. 🙂 Keep reading for a chance to win a box!
| Box Name | Toys | Treats | Extras/Accessories | Overall Value | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BarkBox | 1 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
| PoochPerks | 3 | 1 | n/a | 1 | 1 |
| The Dapper Dog Box | 4 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
| Pet GiftBox | 2 | 4 | 2 | 4 | 4 |
Bottom Line: For the month of October, our favorite subscription box was PoochPerks! I absolutely loved the treats that came in our box. Bruce Wayne is still chowing down on the pumpkin treats and the pumpkin puree was a huge hit in aiding him to eat his chicken and rice meals when he had to eat a modified diet. The ZippyPaws bat toys were the perfect size for Bruce Wayne and he has actually still been throwing them around the house, lol.
While we would honestly recommend any of these boxes, this PoochPerks box for October really won us over!

WINNER: Thank you to everyone that participated! We appreciate your support. If you didn’t win this time, check back in a few weeks as we will be rating and giving away our favorite November subscription box. Congratulations to @zorro_and_zeke for winning our random drawing.
Hey Bruce! It’s @harleysperfectio’s human! I’d think I’d spend about $25-$30 at most on a subription box. I’ve seen many out there, but they are around $50.😩😳
We completely understand. It can get costly quickly. One of our favorite things about PoochPerks is that they offer many different boxes to fit your budget.
Thank you for your entry and good luck!
Hey Bruce Wayne! Graham here, Evie’s lil bro. I think the Momager would spend $20-25 a month for a pup box for us. She’s just not sure which box would be best for us. Your review of the boxes helped, maybe for Christmas we will get a box subscription.
Great review! Thanks dude, Graham

The best part of subscription boxes these days is that you can order just one-time without a long-term commitment. It certainly is a benefit for special occasions. 😉
Thanks for your entry and good luck!
$20-$25 we are @nanook_aspen_the_pomsky
Thank for your entry and good luck!
Hey BW and Little Lady!
It’s the @four_mutts HuMom here. I would probably spend $30-$40 a month on subscription boxes for the kiddos, but with a pack like mine, they just don’t last long enough. We would love to try a Pooch Perks box!😄
I completely understand. We have the completely opposite problem here, BW can’t destroy any of his toys, so we have a house full, lol. Thanks for entering and good luck!
Hi! We have two pups that can chew through anything as well as one with certain protein sensitivities. If we could find a box that accommodated all of our needs, we’d be willing to spend about $35 a month.
P.S. We ABSOLUTELY love following you on Instagram! You can find us here: @blissisbeingaweasel
That certainly is a tall order. Recently, BarkBox has released a heavy chewers box, but there treats aren’t as accommodating sometimes. Sometimes, a smaller company can provide a more personalized box for you. I know that is something we struggle with as well on the treat side of things.
Thank you for your entry and good luck!
Hi Bruce! My two dogs love your blog and instagram it helps me (the dogs’ butler) pick out better toys and treats for the pooches. We would probably spend up to $30-35 a month on a subscription box.
Love and Licks from the dogs @pnwmutts
LOL, Thank you very much! One of the best things about IG is that we have found so many great items from recommendations of friends that we otherwise might not have known about.
Thank you for your entry and good luck!
Hey Bruce! Hope all is well with you (and of course the Little Lady). Anyway, we’d be willing to spend $20-25 on a box. Mom and dad do like to spoil us but we are very picky, so they usually don’t make huge investments in us! We hope to win this so we can sample some of the awesome items that are in this box. This is @zorro_and_zeke , and our moms email is gabrielabetanzos@icloud.com We hope we win! Have a great day.
Hi Zorro & Zeke! We certainly understand that dilemma, Bruce Wayne is a picky eater as well and I’m even pickier about what I give him. The good thing for us though is anything Bruce Wayne doesn’t or can’t eat, we can give away to our friends that aren’t as picky 🙂
Thank you for your entry and good luck!
