What Is PupCrate?
PupCrate is a monthly subscription box for dogs.
Their treats are from the USA and their toys come from all over the world. They will send you 4-5 items in each box.

They have three size categories of dogs to choose from. Something that I like about their subscription box is you can choose what types of toys you want in your boxes. The categories are Plush Toys, Chew Toys, or Mix.
They have a month to month option, 3 month option, or 12 month subscription option.

The Details of THIS Box
**THIS BOX WAS PROVIDED TO ME FOR REVIEW**
I believe this is the Large size box, with the mix toy option.
What's In the Box?
Here is what the box looks like when it is delivered to you. I love the paw prints on the side!

And here is what the box looks like on the inside!
They include a card explaining each toy which I always love. Shows that they take the time to make their boxes and don't just throw random things together.
Treats
Buy A Bone Bone Help Give A Dog A Home Peanut Butter (2.5 oz) - $2.49
This treat was a huge hit with the pups. It was gone in seconds. And as you can see on the packaging it is wheat, corn, and soy free. I only wish there was more of it. It was good sized, but definitely something that you have to use soon once opened since you cannot seal it closed again.
Snicky Snaks Cinnamon Crunch Bar Organic Dog Treats (1.9 oz) - $2.26
Ours arrived broken in half but that's not a huge deal. It's still a treat that my dogs can eat whether it's broken or not. They really enjoyed the treat though. Again, I wish there were more treats but they loved it so it's ok! And it looks like it's organic, which seems like a plus.

Toys
Booda Softies Turtle- $3.39
This toy was a huge hit, not only with the dogs. When I was unboxing this my baby snuck by, sneakily took the turtle to the other room, and gave it hugs and kisses. So she had dibs on it for the first few minutes. Once the dogs got to it though they loved it too. My dogs seem to like plush toys the most. They like destroying them but this one seemed to last a while surprisingly.
Heggies - ~$8.00
This hedgehog toy made me so happy when I saw it in there! They had a Large one of these we bought from Walmart (was a different type and company) and they loved it. So I knew they would love this one. When it is squeezed it makes a grunting noise. They both took turns fighting over it. Somehow Darwin pulled our the longer hair pieces and made him bare in that spot, but this toy is still going strong in the backyard.

Earth Rated Dog Waste Bag - $0.87
We are always in need of dog waste bags so this was a good thing to receive! I also like that they went with the Earth Rated brand. There are 15 bags per roll so that will last us about 15 walks! Darwin doesn't like to go potty while we are on walks...I have no idea why.

Final Thoughts
Ok it's time to calculate the value of the box!
- Buy A Bone Bone Help Give A Dog A Home Peanut Butter (2.5 oz) - $2.49
- Snicky Snaks Cinnamon Crunch Bar Organic Dog Treats (1.9 oz) - $2.26
- All-Natural Chicken Jerky Strips (6 Medium Strips) - ~$4
- Booda Softies Turtle- $3.39
- Heggies - ~$8.00
- Earth Rated Dog Waste Bag - $0.87
That's almost $8 under the price per box on the monthly plan, and about $6 under the cost per box on the yearly plan. Buyers like to be getting more than they paid for the box, but it's a little difficult to do with the dog boxes. I feel like the toys were a little on the small side this time, and the value of this box is lower than last month's. However my dogs still loved every item in this box so it wasn't a total loss.
It would be nice to see the box have a higher value in the future though.
