Over the past 3 months, Oscar has been treated to what I think, is THE best monthly treat and toy subscription for dogs out there.  (and as a pet blogger, I have been sent many)  Bowzer Box is a Canadian company, delivering what I call boxes of "WOW" to dog lovers in Canada. The products are top notch and to be honest, I get just as excited when it arrives as Oscar does. I'll pass on the tasty kibble and the squecky toys, but I will certainly enjoy seeing how happy Oscar is when we crack open the box. 

I asked the Founder and Owner of Bowzer Box, Pamela Green, to tell me a little about the business and what led to its creation. 

Why did you start Bowzer Box?

"It all started as a idea in the back of my mind—that maybe I could take my love of dogs and do something really special with it—turned into a series of days, weeks, and months filled with research, planning, and creating.  Being a dog lover I wanted to do something cool to bring that love to other dog lovers across Canada. My research helped me come across the popularity of subscription boxes for dogs out of the US and not a single one from Canada.  This was my push to create Bowzer Box."

How do you choose products for the monthly boxes?

"The first thing I look for is Canadian or US made, second I look at the ingredients - less is best.  I also listen to feedback from our subscribers, I truly value their opinions.  I've been fortunate to make some fantastic connections these last few months which have definitely helped me with product selection.  I like to use my dog as a taste tester but she will eat anything, if I picked her favourites I'd be putting potato chips in the boxes!"

"This is the best part of my job!  My initial inspiration comes from my beagle Quinny who I almost lost to parvo virus as a pup (healthiest little girl now)."

(Quinny was an inspiration for Pam)

"During the first month of operation, even before we had any sales, we partnered with our local humane society adoptathon. During the month of March, every dog who was adopted went home with their very own Bowzer Box.  We also just started a great affiliation program with a ton of Canadian rescue groups, we also support their events with free boxes/treats/toys or sponsorship.  It's been tough not to come home with a new dog after seeing all the pups in need of homes.  I have such respect and admiration for all the wonderful people who donate their time for dogs in need."
