Box subscription services are pretty popular these days. I’ve tried a few different kinds – organic food, meal/ingredients, a technology/programming box, even a box for “cat ladies!” The latest box service I’m trying is for Olive and Artie – it’s called the Urban Dog Box and we received a box to try this week and a box to giveaway to readers/followers!
Artie couldn’t wait to dig into his Urban Dog Box!
The Urban Dog Box is based right here in Edmonton and ships across Canada.
It was created back in 2015 though has just been recently been starting to ramp up business.
Their mission is to source and provide high quality, healthy/organic treats for your puppers and woofers.
Olive and Artie were pretty patient as we assessed the Urban Dog Box contents.
The Urban Dog Box prides themselves in delivering high quality, handpicked products, tailored for the size of your dog.
Artie and Olive got a 4-6 item box but the Urban Dog Box offers three box types: 2-3 items, 4-6 items, or 7-12 items. You can order one-time, 3-months, or 6-month packages and the pricing varies depending on size of box and how many repeat orders you commit to. Box prices range from $15 to $49 /month, plus a flat rate of $5 shipping. There also isn’t any recurring charge – so if your 3-month plan is completed, you won’t be auto-charged for another 3-months.
Happy with their Urban Dog Box haul!
This is what Olive and Artie received in their Urban Dog Box:
- Rogz Grinz Ball
- Grandma Lucy’s Organic Oven-Baked Dog Treats
- Himalayan Yaky Charm Treats
- Hero Dog Treats Jerky
- Booda Bone Knot Rope Toy
- Another dog treat that Artie grabbed so fast we didn’t get a chance to properly look at the label (lol oops!)
So they got a pretty good variety of toys and treats! And the best part is – it’s conveniently delivered right to our door!
Grandma Lucy’s Oven-Baked Organic Dog Treats!
Generally the Urban Dog Box products are also available for purchase in Canada (but if they find a product out of the U.S. that they think is of a high quality, they might sneak that in as well). The owner thought it would be a nice way for dog owners to try different goodies and if they like it then they could go out and buy more – either in stores or eventually, the Urban Dog Box would like to incorporate an online store where you could order individual items that are featured in the boxes.
Plus – home delivery is also nice!
Healthy treats and toys for Olive and Artie!
If you’re interested in checking out the Urban Dog Box in person, they’ll have a vendor booth at the Edmonton Humane Society’s first-ever Made for Pets market taking place Sunday, August 13, 2017.

Another awesome pet giveaway!! Thanks Linda, love the review, it sounds like a great box! I will have to get pickles one for sure !!????????????❤️
Maverick loves liver treats….but let’s be honest he’s not picky!
Chi Chi loves any toy that squeaks! ????????
My dad’s dog (so mine by proxy) loves Dentabone treats! But he’s also happy to steal whatever is on my dad’s plate if he isn’t watching carefully.
My dog’s favorite treats are dog chicken strips they sell in a huge bag at Costco, I forget the exact name right now.
It’s always great to hear about Canadian-only business like this! A really nice change. Good for this local company! I hope they are successful.
Charlie loves his chew treats after his walk!
Emmett loves all treats except dried sweet potato. He spits that out.
I have tried a lot of different dog boxes, but haven’t heard of this one made right in my back yard! I love that they don’t auto renew your subscription! That’s a great feature. My dog’s favourite toy came from a subscription box, bark box. It’s called a ‘dog egg’ and has lasted her a good three years!! It’s looking a little rough these days from all that chewing, but she loves it anyway. ;)
Darwin the beagle eats all the snacks! No favourites!
Paisley loves toys with squeakers that she can eventually destroy haha
Fergus loves ALL treats and squeaky toys that can withstand his puppy chompers! LOL
My girls love almost any treat! As for toys, Bramble loves balls, and Thornly loves sticks and tug ropes.
Gabriel loves balls he can chew on!!
I’m excited that there’s a Edmonton-based dog box! My puppy loves the PB and Pumpkin cookies from another local business – muttmunch.
My boy loves squeeky toys and can play day and night with it!
My dogs love kongs with peanut butter stuffed in them :)
My dog loves meaty treats but also has a thing for crackers and bbq chips if anyone gives her some. She loves toys that squeak the most.
Cassi loves chicken feet and greenies. She would love to try some new treats from her very own Urban Dog Box!!
Oakley would love to win an Urban Dog box prize. He LOVES anything that he can chew on and likes to try new things
Daughters dog, as typical, loves bones, treats, ropes… I enjoy placing a biscuit on the tip of the nose, and she waits patiently for the “go” command. It’s not often that one can find a company that is interested in providing quality and service, for a reasonable price. This is one to watch…
Great giveaway!! I am excited to check out there booth is this weeks . Dogs loves chewy toys and my shoes cause she is teething
my doggie Bowie loves any treats and sqeaky toys, while Charlie loves bully sticks and stuffed animals.
oops i just saw i am not eligible to win, i live in the US. darn it! :)
My pups favourite toy is a stuffed chewbacca that used to squeak and crinkle, and has been so loved that it no longer squeaks or crinkles. Lola makes sure to carry chewy out of her crate when she is let out every morning, it’s the sweetest thing.
My sweet little dog likes ANY kind of treat and his favourite toys are the furry type.
My dogs absolutely love balls and tugs. They run around trying to be the first one to fetch or drag the other dog around the yard
My older dog has this rubber squeaky bone that he loves. It looks like it is from the Flintstones lol. It drives my daughter absolutely crazy when he has it. He is a lean mean squeaking machine. He doesn’t get it all the time-only as a treat.
