BarkBox is the pet pick on this list. The Classic box sends 2 plush toys and 2 bags of healthy treats on a new theme each month, from $24 a month with free shipping, and BarkBox was adding a free extra toy in every box for the first year when we checked. Dogs that shred plush toys can switch to Super Chewer, and there are also Combo and Treats Only plans. The FAQ covers allergies, toy preferences, what happens if a dog destroys a toy, and how to skip a month or cancel. BARK says the brand is trusted by 8+ million dogs. The limits are obvious: it only suits dog owners, and the heavier-duty plans cost more than the Classic. For a dog owner who wants a steady supply of new toys and treats, its price and the included shipping are easy to compare with buying the same items in a store.
