**Update – 2019** – Unfortunately, we were sad to learn that Hound & Co has closed their online shop. However, some of the products seen below may still be able to be found directly from the companies that make them.
We were pleased to get offered the opportunity to try one of Hound & Co’s subscription boxes. Who doesn’t love a subscription box? It’s always fun to see what might show up every time you get one. To be honest, when we received Hound & Co’s box, at first I was a little surprised that it seemed on the small side compared to other boxes we had tried.
Disclosure: We received a complimentary subscription box from Hound & Co. with no obligation to post about it unless we enjoyed it – which we did! All opinions are our own.
However, I was impressed with the amount of quality products they squeezed into that little box! That’s one thing with some other boxes we’ve tried – I’m not always impressed with the quality of the items included. Many times, there are treats that I don’t want to feed to my dog because of the ingredients. That was certainly not the case here.
Never heard of Hound & Co? They are a “marketplace for all things hound”. Hound & Co brings together sellers of unique dog-related products all in one place where dog lovers can find them. They focus on devoted dog owners, small businesses, and rescue organizations (a portion of their profits support rescues). They are seeking to become the most comprehensive resource for hand-crafted dog products on the market.
All of their products are made by dog lovers for dog lovers! They cater to the fashionista with a wide variety of accessories and outfits. The first time I visited their website, I fell in love with some of the coats on there, and one of these days I’m going to get one for Luke (even though he doesn’t need another coat!). Hound & Co also doesn’t forget dog lovers and they offer an assortment of dog-related accessories for the humans! When I visited their website before writing this post, I could hardly drag myself off that page! They have a lot to offer.
They put our box together with us in mind and here is what we received:
- A custom dog breed print from Quotable Life. They have a wonderful variety of breeds to choose from in many different sizes, perfect for framing.
- Big Daddy Biscuits. Anything that says “Farm to Table” is right up our alley! These all natural, organic dog biscuits are bite-size and crunchy. The ingredients are sourced from Georgia farmers, and “farm fresh eggs” are even on the list (just like our own).
- Annie’s Sweet Treats. While Luke loved the biscuits above, these treats really made him drool! I have to admit they even smelled good to me. These are grain-free, handmade, and have a short list of ingredients; which is always a good thing in our book.
Can you see the drool hanging on his whisker? And how about that expression? - Poop Bag Holder from The Hands of All Hands LLC. They specialize in sports teams, fun prints, and bright colors on all their custom dog collars, leashes, bandanas, poop bag holders and bow ties. We thought it kind of ironic that we got one with foxes on it, but these foxes are cute (unlike the ones that terrorize our farm birds!).
This clips easily to our leash – and even color coordinates with it! - Luxury Dog Scarf from Bumble & Hound. They make scarves and accessories by hand in the American South. 20% of every purchase from them supports local rescues. While I wondered how a black scarf would look on our black and white dog, I think it gives him a very sophisticated look – he’s ready for the next black-tie affair! They have a variety of more colorful scarves if you prefer.
I definitely prefer quality over quantity, and I loved this box. The handmade and homemade aspect appeals to me, and it’s important to me to know I am supporting small entrepreneurs rather than big businesses. The boxes run from $27 to $30 depending on the length of your subscription, and shipping is free. You can learn more about Hound & Co by following them on their social media:

Thank you!! xxoo
It looks like a lot of good quality items!
I do think I’m going to try it again, to see what we could get next time! 🙂
That sounds fabulous, and Luke is such a good sport!
He’s my first dog that will actually sit and wait patiently to try something. I never could get the beagles to do that! 🙂
Luke, that bandanna is perfect for you! It even matches your gorgeous furs. Looks like a great box of stuff!
The black really does look good on him, doesn’t it? Thank you!
That’s some pretty cool loot. Never heard of them so thanks for letting us know. Luke you are handsome!
I hope you get a chance to check out some of the fun items they have (and you could probably sell some of your stuff through them too)!
You look very handsome in your bandana. That is a nice box of goodies.
Thank you, Ellen!
What a great box of goodies! A nice way to try foods and treats out to see if your pet will like them.
With so many products out there to choose from, it’s nice to have someone else pick something to try! 🙂
I haven’t heard of this box but it looks awesome! I am loving the scarf!
They really do have some nice things in their shop!
that DOES look like a pawesome box!! Thank you for telling us about it!
We are happy to share when we find things we like!
Luke, you are looking very handsome in your new bandana. Glad you enjoyed your box so much!
Thank you! I think we might get him one for his birthday too, it will make a fun surprise for both of us!
It’s nice to have a box with cool goodies and you look fantastic Luke!
Thank you!!
Absolutely LOVE the drool bomb! Luke is too adorably cute.
He is funny. He doesn’t always drool, but certain things bring on a puddle below him. LOL
luke the bandana looks so fabulous!!! it is made for you and just for you!!! enjoy that tasty biscuits ;o)
Thank you!!
The subscription boxes are fun to get for the dogs; but like you, I’m not always impressed with the quality of the items. That’s why I gave up on them. Maybe I’ll check this out for Shadow’s birthday. Ducky’s Gotcha Day is next week already, but I’ll find something for her somewhere.
I think both you and Shadow would enjoy this box; and I’m sure you’ll still find something special for Ducky’s day too!
