Review: Pawsome Box

Posted on Tuesday 4 August 2015

We can never turn down the chance to do a Pawsome Box review.

What could be better than receiving a box of goodies and surprises from the Postie?!
Nothin' I tell you!

Check out our other Pawsome Box reviews:

Our first review (plus Pawsome Box background)

Our Christmas Special Pawsome Box review

We were very impressed with the amount and variety of toys, treats and other items we
received in our box. The box was practically full to the brim!

Here's a detailed list of what we received:

(photo taken from the back of the booklet received in our box)

What did we make of the contents?

The treats went down... well, a treat! (Of course).

This toy is our favourite item from the box. Perfect for playing tug of war with my human baby brother. I love it so much that mum's had to re-stuff and sew it back together a few times for me. She's ace like that :)

Some other items include:

A blue rubber bone toy which has been taken ownership of by my human baby brother, I wasn't so interested in it but it seems popular with him!

A green pop-up water bowl which is going to come in handy for our walks.

And a tube of multivitamin paste to support a healthy diet.

Overall; compared to the first Pawsome Bo x we reviewed, the products in the box seem of much higher quality and variety... Meaning, the boxes are getting better every month! We also really like their website; the interface is incredibly user friendly, it's eye-catching and easy to understand when it comes to who they are and what they do.

Another brilliant box, thanks Pawsome Box!

Pawsome Box provided me with one of their boxes for review, but did not otherwise compensate me for this post. The views and opinions expressed in this post and on this blog are entirely my own.

Review: Meaty Sweeties by Pure

Posted on Tuesday 14 April 2015

Another review from Pure!
This time we've been given the opportunity to try out and review their brand new product; Meaty Sweeties!

Here we have the Chicken & Coconut flavour. They also come in Duck & Apple flavour. These treats are grain free, naturally dehydrated and are "made with nothing but fresh human grade ingredients with a consistency not too tough, but not too crumbly."

Just like their food, these 'Meaty Sweeties' contain "No rendered meats or derivatives, no wheat, corn or soya, colours, taste enhancers, sweeteners or any other nasty bits".

Our first impressions of the treats were very good indeed! We particularly liked the texture, the smell and the packaging.

Let's take a look at the ingredients:

Chicken (65%) Honey, Coconut (10%) Coconut Oil & Organic Molasses

We really like the fact that these treats contain Coconut Oil as we already use this alongside meal times. If you didn't already know, Coconut Oil has loads of benefits for dogs! (And humans too!)

And finally.... The all-important taste test...

...Deee-licious! That went down a TREAT! =P

Pure's New Recipe

This being the third review we have done for Pure Pet Food, we must say how delightful it has been exchanging emails with the company over the past months. Their customer service has been friendly and the products have always been sent out to us quickly.
Thanks again to the guys at Pure!

Review: Pure's new recipe

Posted on Thursday 12 March 2015

The guys over at Pure Pet Food have sent us a box of their brand new Turkey Terrific food to review! Yum! - and just in time! We've only gone and run out of our usual food again.

We did a review for Pure back in December when we first got to try out their delicious food - we weren't disappointed: Pure Review

We were fans of Pure back then and we still are now! We like how easy the food is to prepare (Check out our previous review for a step by step preparation guide) and also how little cupboard space the box takes up!

Let's take a quick look at the new recipe:
Turkey (20%), Potato, Parsnip, Carrot, Beef Liver (8%), Green Beans, Apple, Cabbage & Minerals (All ingredients dehydrated)
A well balanced, healthy food! A big paws up from us!

"Mum, can we stop posing next to the box and get to my favourite part of the review, PLEASE!"

"Mmm, yummy! This is just, well... Terrific!"

We only have one problem...

Their trial boxes need to be bigger!
:-D

Valentines Review: BarkBeats (and £5 off voucher code)

Posted on Saturday 14 February 2015

Happy Valentines!

We have a review for you today from BarkBeats!

(There is a £5 off voucher code for you all at the bottom too! Should you wish to subscribe - which we recommend you do!)

BarkBeats is a monthly subscription box full of goodies for your furry friend. They got in touch with us and asked if we'd review one of their boxes for them... Of course we would!

Let's check out the goods! They sent us out their Valentine's box! How very lovely!

We're a fan the packaging inside and out - a lovely touch

What's in our box?...

I (Bernie) went for the Dog Lips before anything else, we all know how much I love my soft toys so this was a big hit!

I've just run out of my normal Shampoo so this Oh My Dog! Shampoo couldn't have arrived at a better time! My last bath was a super soapy one... Something to do with fox poo...

The Heart Oreo Cookie looks fantastic and tastes even better!!

A Doggy Chocolate Bar?! Better not tell mum that humans can also eat it!

These Goodogs Snacks smell delicious! They're soft and chewy too!

My little human brother helped me in getting (well, tipping) everything out of the box

The Ancol Plush Dog Lips are just hilarious!! It has a squeaker in the back which encourages the dog to hold it this way around in their mouth. Teeheehee

The Heart Oreo Cookie went down an absolute treat and there's still crumbs in the bed for later!

Overall, we're very impressed with the contents of the box! We really like their website also - It's very easy to navigate and we especially love the gallery of happy recipients on their homepage.

How does it work?

Just 3 simple steps!

1. Select the size of your dog; Small, Medium or Large

2. Choose your plan; 1 month, 6 months or 12 months

3. Enter your delivery and payment details

Oh and 1 more thing!...

Don't forget to use this special code at the checkout to get £5 off your order! 'BERNIE5'

Review: Pawsome Box Christmas Special!

Posted on Sunday 11 January 2015

Yes, we know it's late! We only received our Pawsome Box on Friday and we're only just posting this now to allow ourselves two days to test out all the goodies! We're guessing the postman must have been reeaalllyy busy over the Christmas period!

You may remember us doing a review on one of their boxes back in September: Review: Pawsome Box

So, what's in the box?

We like The Paw notes booklet that comes with every box. This edition contains doggie news, how to protect your Xmas tree from your curious dog, doggie themed buys (lot's of frenchie and pug themed stuff!) and some info on Xmas foods to keep out of reach of your dog! Plus, on the back is a list of everything you've received in your box!

And we got a neat stocking to put it all in! (Also doubles up as a head-rest!)

Let's get those goodies back out the sack and take a closer look at them!

The Super Plush Santa was an immediate hit! Nothing beats a good game of tug with a good soft toy!

Mum really likes the grooming glove and so do I, it feels lovely and gets out so much loose hair! I can't have the rawhide candy canes so we're going to gift those to my friends, Bella and Boris. The Christmas tree squeaker and the tough candy cane toys are also brilliant!

And the chicken fillet treats were even better! For a dog who has a habit of swallowing things whole, these treats broke up really nicely!

We're big Christmas lovers so receiving this box to review was an absolute delight! Thanks Pawsome Box!
