Pet Treater June 2018 Review
There’s not a traditional information card with this subscription so there’s not always a stated theme, but you will occasionally see some commonalities running throughout the box contents. This month, I honestly wasn’t sure, but then Nyx doesn’t care about themes:
Vegalicious Healthy Treat Bar in Peanut Butter Blast (2 oz) – Retail Value $3
This has buckwheat flour as the main ingredient, and it’s vegan, so I think Nyx is going to get to try it in little pieces, but I just gave her some other new treats and I can’t give her too many new things at once. I already know she will love it – she is a huge fan of peanut butter.
Petprojekt Dog Log - Retail Value $12.03
Nyx thinks this is awesome. It’s a soft rubber squeaky log toy with a fuzzy tail. She is mostly interested in the tail. I am amazed, but she hasn’t destroyed it yet.
Foustick Protect Paw Balm – Retail Value $4.99
This is a balm for paws and noses. Nyx mostly walks in the grass where we live but I will save it for times we may have to go on pavement (like bath weekends when she has to stay in the driveway for 10-15 minutes with her medicated shampoo). We’ve received this before; it is also good for winter time.
Crinkle Monkey – Estimated Value $12
I spent a very long time with Google image search and turned up nothing. Except for the fact that there are a WHOLE LOT of monkey-shaped dog toys with dangling limbs (but I did not find this one). Anyway, naturally, Nyx loves this toy, although she did manage to pull a leg off fairly quickly. (Pet Treater does not promise to provide toys suitable for heavy chewers. But their toys are generally size-appropriate even for large breeds, which is nice.)
Heavenly Hounds Peanut Butter Relaxation Square (2 oz) – Buy a 3 pack for $17.99
This has a few calming herbs like passion flower and valerian root, which do sort of work on people anyway. I guess they’re also safe for dogs? I’ll pass this along to a neighbor since the base is wheat flour and it also has barley. I know it’ll be useful for subscribers whose dogs get nervous around the sound of fireworks.
LootCrate December 2015 BB8 Star Wars Socks – Retail Value $9.95
There is always one “for your human” item in Pet Treater and this month it is these socks. This is probably a good time to point out that Pet Treater gets a lot of its items as closeouts (which is why I often link to third-party sellers on Amazon and the Walmart marketplace in these reviews). The socks are fine – they fit and all, and I do like to wear novelty socks around the house – but they have probably been sitting on a shelf somewhere for 2.5 years.
Mydoggy Soft Baked Cheesy Training Treats (5 oz) – Retail Value $7.49
This is a new brand for us. They are free of wheat, corn, and soy, but they are not grain free (contain rye). They have two different kinds of cheese as well as eggs, but they are free of meat proteins, so they will probably work for a fair number of dogs with food sensitivities. Oddly, they have ginger and molasses, but dogs’ taste is definitely different from mine and I’m guessing they think that these are pretty good. These come in a resealable bag, are made in the USA, and were not expired.
You get some pictures of dogs so that’s always fun.
Here are some pictures of Nyx with the dog log toy.
Verdict: There were 7 items in the June 2018 Pet Treater box. I was unable to find values for one of them, as a few were closeouts, sold out, wholesale-only, etc. , and one wasn’t available individually. This subscription costs $24.99 on a month-to-month basis, so you are paying about $3.57 per item this month, which seems like a decent deal, even if one or two things don’t end up working for you. Large dog toys typically cost quite a bit more than $3.57 each, as do full packages of treats. The toys were size appropriate (if not particularly durable) this month, and those are always the main draws for Nyx with any dog subscription box. I was also pleased that the treats are all currently in production (and available to purchase again if they work for you).
