"Ring! Ring!" It's for you Murphy!

Woof! Woof! or Bark! Bark!

Every dog has his day,
and today was that day for my sweet Murphy.

I wasn't sure if it was actually going to come this month

since I signed up late on the 10th of June.

But today when the mailman came to the door,

he knew that this delivery wasn't from Amazon...

and the contents were definitely not for me.

No, it's not his birthday.

But every furry companion should be treated special

and this is a fun way to make that happen.

Before the box was even opened there was a

wiggly-waggly nose sniffing the edges like a crazy dog.

Since Murphy isn't a "food driven" dog,

I knew there must be something extra tasty in there.

That was definitely the case.

Beer Murphy?  Really?! Fine...you can have a sip since it was made just for you.

So what is this fabulous box with Bowser Beer, you ask?

None other than the "BarkBox" of fun!

I had seen advertisements for this company,

but I really didn't know if it would be worth it.

Then, I learned that there was a Groupon for a 3-month trial membership

and figured that it was worth a shot!

At least from the first box, I can tell that it's going to be totally worth it.

And from the excitement and eager anticipation from Murphy...I think that I was correct.

What was in his box besides the doggy beer?

Wonderful things!

1. Heartland Premium Bone: Murphy has been chewing on this bone since the box was opened!
2. Bowser Beer:  They suggested putting it with crushed ice for a pup slushy and that's exactly what I plan to do.  He'll love it on a hot and steamy day.
3. Puppy Cake: Paptato Chips made from dried sweet potatoes...Murphy adores sweet potatoes!
4. Whole Life Burger Treats:  Oh man, we cracked this bag open right away and even a Murphy who isn't that into food, loved 'em.
5. Dale Edger's Calm K9:  I know that these are going to be good because they were made right her in Portland, Oregon.  It says that it will help to soothe frighteded nerves and help pups with anxiety...I can't wait to see if it will help my sweet but fearful Murphy.  Good thing it arrived right in time for the 4th of July!

So how does it work and how can your pup get fun treats too?

Pretty easy, huh?!

I can't help but spoil my best

furry friend every once in a while.

He saved my heart initially,

and continues to make my life

complete each day.

Happy Un-Birthday Murphy!

From me and BarkBox

Woof! Woof!
