Vivadogs

What's in the box: A monthly selection of dog products, typically treats and toys, with upcoming boxes shown in advance.

Vivadogs is a monthly subscription box for dogs from a Spanish company that also runs a Portuguese store. Each month you get a box of products for your dog. You can also see what is planned for the next few months before you subscribe, which helps if you want to know what you are paying for. The site lists the box at 9.99 € and says the contents would cost 44.99 € in a shop. That figure comes from the company and is hard to check, so treat it as a rough guide. The plans are described as flexible, and you can pause deliveries at any time in a few clicks. Vivadogs also says it gives at least 10% of its profits to animal charities and shelters, which may appeal to shoppers who want their spending to do some good. On the downside, the site does not clearly explain whether boxes are matched to your dog's size, age or diet. It also does not set out shipping costs or cancellation terms on its main pages. The copyright line at the bottom of the site still reads 2013-2020, so check that the offer and price are current before you sign up. Overall it looks like a cheap, low-commitment way to try a monthly dog box, and it is best judged after a month or two.
