Today my wife and I got our puppy from the breeder. He is a Braque Francais. Here’s a picture. He doesn’t have a name yet, so we’re taking suggestions (just hit reply–and bonus points if it’s French). I’m already completely in love with him, and that means that I’m headed down the path of buying ridiculous merchandise for my dog. Amy and I already made one trip to the pet store, and that resulted in extensive use of my veto power. One way I might be able to limit the damage is by subscribing to something like BarkBox. It’s a monthly subscription that gives you “a combination of 4-6 treats, toys, and hygiene products that have been hand selected” for your dog. While BarkBox is the product (and it came first), the company is Bark & Co. They are based in New York, NY, and they are “dedicated to building products that foster the health and happiness of dogs everywhere.”
While I’m not totally sold on the idea of getting a random assortment of products that my dog may or not like (as opposed to going to the pet store and picking out products that my dog may or may not like_, but it is a nice way to discover new pet products–especially when you consider just how many products there are out there. I’m sure Bark & Co. will add new product lines as they learn more about what pet owners want. There isn’t a ton of info about the company on its website, but their News page says that they raised $5 million in funding earlier this year. There’s your hint at just how big the potential is in the pets market. If you’d like to get in on it, take a look at Bark & Co.’s Jobs page. Right now they’re looking for a Creative Interaction Designer, a Customer Acquisition Specialist, a Rails Developer, a Frontend Developer, and a Mobile Developer. You apply for those while I go play with my puppy.

Prince
He looks like a Bugsy. Bugsy Basquiat
I think his spots look like pepper so maybe Poivre?
Hugo! For Victor Hugo, of course.
Thanks for sharing – he’s very cute!
