BarkBox has done so many collaborations over the years. The Muppets, The Simpsons, and Disney are just a few. But their latest collab is a lot more comedic than their usual matchups. They have teamed up with Saturday Night Live for their newest interactive dog toy.
There are a lot of fan-favorite sketches that could merit a dog toy and chances are you might be thinking of one or two. But my guess is you won't guess right. The new dog toy is called... "Duck in a Box." It's based on the now-classic sketch with Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg, D**k in the Box.
How BarkBox decided that they wanted to do this now when the sketch is almost 20 years old, who knows, but the toy is cuter than it has any right to be. And honestly, this is probably for millennials more than anyone else.
As you can tell from the name, it's a duck in a box. The box looks like a patchwork present and says the words to the song on the outside. Inside is a teal and purple duck wearing sunglasses that are very similar to Timberlake and Sandberg's.

The toy also features crinkle material and a squeaky on the inside, so it won't just be a laugh for you, your dog will actually enjoy it too. Because the box is functional, you can easily hide treats inside for your dog to find and the duck can be taken out to be played with on its own.
How do you get this new toy? You simply need to subscribe to BarkBox. When you purchase a six-month subscription or a 12-month subscription in May, you will get this as a gift with your purchase. So, what are you waiting for? Go get your Duck in the Box!
