Bullymake Box is a monthly subscription box for power chewers. You all have heard about (and seen) some of Nyx’s exploits with plush toys from dog subscription boxes so when I heard about this one, I had to sign up immediately. Nyx is definitely a power chewer! You pick your dog’s weight in 10-pound increments so this is a box for an 80-pound dog (Nyx weighs about 87 right now).
My Subscription Addiction paid for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)
About Bullymake Box
The Subscription Box: Bullymake Box
The Cost: $39 a month + free US shipping. Save with 3-, 6-, and 12-month subscriptions.
The Products: Toys and treats specifically tailored for heavy chewing dogs (no plushes). You can enter specific allergy information for your dog on the checkout screen. You can also choose to receive a “toys only” box as I did because of Nyx’s dietary issues. You can also now customize the types of toys you receive–see more about how to do so below.
Ships to: USA (for free!) and Canada (for $8)
Good to Know: If you want a toys-only box, you should select that during sign-up. Otherwise you will get the default box, which does include some treats. Now you can also go into your account and change your preferences regarding treats, toy type, etc.
Bullymake Box September 2019 Review
There was an Oktoberfest theme this month (I like how they sent it before October instead of after the relevant event):
Not all boxes are the same due to the fact that you can choose your dog’s size in 10 pound increments, choose a toys-only box, and now choose the types of toys, and the newer information cards reflect that.
Pretzel Nylon Chew
This was one of the themed items for the month. It has an aroma that isn’t really “pretzel” but I think is just meant to attract your dog. (I can’t quite place the scent but it’s not noxious or anything, it is there deliberately and Nyx thought it was great.) Nyx enjoyed this quite a lot and you can see her playing with it below.
Bottle Opener Nylon Chew
This is the other themed item for the month. (Although we don’t get rubber toys right now, that is one of the options with Bullymake Box and a few of those are usually themed as well.) Nyx is liking this one a lot as well.
Crossbones Nylon Chew
I want to say we’ve received this one before, but Nyx doesn’t care – it’s new to her. If you get as many nylon toys as we do in a month, some of them are bound to seem random or may be from past boxes. And that’s OK. The themes are for the people, the dogs don’t care so much! Anyway, what I like about this one is Nyx will chew on each of the four ends rather than just picking one, which means the toy lasts longer.
Knotted Rope Toy
We left the fourth toy choice blank and it usually ends up being a rope, which is fine because Nyx loves ropes. Playing tug is her favorite thing ever, and this one is long enough that you can actually do that without her teeth accidentally sinking into your hand. (Of course you should always supervise your dog with any new toy and take it away if it starts to become damaged!)
Here are some pictures of Nyx with the pretzel toy. She had a lot of fun although that’s not always evident from the photos. These nylon toys are absolutely the highlight of her month and they usually last her until the next Bullymake Box comes.
Verdict: I couldn’t calculate a total value for the September Bullymake Box because all of the toys were Bullymake exclusives but not available in their shop. However, I’d say this was a typical month for this subscription for us. This is one of Nyx’s favorite boxes to receive each month and I like the customization – some people and dogs might find three nylon toys boring, but this is literally Nyx’s favorite type of toy, ever, and getting three of them means three times the entertainment (and also they last a long time). But if nylon toys aren’t your dog’s thing, other options are available. I’m not sure which toy was Nyx’s favorite as she was pretty enthusiastic about all of them.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? No, your first shipment would be October’s. You can sometimes buy some of the exclusive toys at the Bullymake Shop if something catches your eye (this month’s toys may take a few weeks to get put into the shop). Also, please note there are some box variations here so you may not always receive the same box as Nyx gets, even if you choose the same profile values when you sign up.
Value Breakdown: At $39 for the box, you are paying an average of $9.75 per item.
