Canadian dog owners have seen the ads. You couldn’t help but laugh at the Instagram video showing how obsessed the dogs were with the loud donut and moose toys. Can we really say that the Bark box trend is worth getting on board with in Canada? see our website here!

Value must be prioritized. Shipping from the US adds about $9 CAD per month (though rates could change), so when you factor in delivery costs and currency conversion, each box will cost about $35–40 CAD. Two bags of treats, a strong chew, and a themed toy box are yours to unwrap every month. Bark makes strong toys that are usually one-of-a-kind and unlike anything you’d find at PetSmart. Consider poutine fries, raccoon plush toys, and hockey sticks. Themed goods typically include clearly labeled meats, such as antibiotic-free chicken, fish, or duck.

What about conventions? Amazing considering how much it cost. Toys retain their shape admirably, but “Super Chewer” packaging is necessary for dogs that rip through paper at tax time. Nothing is imported from other countries; all of the treats are created in the US and Canada. The majority of packages contain oat flour, chickpeas, or pumpkin.

I am wondering if the transportation is slow. Quite mildly. Ten to fourteen days from now should bring delivery to your front step or mailbox. Not blazingly fast, but it doesn’t seem that slow once the habit takes hold. Once or twice a year, you can get dinged for border fees and taxes, which is usually not a big deal. This is something to consider, but it is not a deal breaker.

Is Bark Box a good fit for dog owners in Canada because of the value it offers? Buying sweets and toys from chain stores costs about the same, but there’s more variety, excitement, and novelty every month. It is possible that the theme is just not to your liking. Maybe about two in a.m., you will tread on a squeaker and begin to second your choices about life. But the happiness in your dog’s eyes transcends their loonies and toonies in weight.
