Dog toys

Introduction:

For the dog lovers out there this one is for you. I was always on the hunt for the ideal toy for my dog to fetch and chew. There are many dog toys to choose from. In this article, I will talk about the most important things to consider when choosing a toy for your dog. I will also include resources that might be helpful when choosing a toy for your dog.

Things to remember when choosing a toy for your dog:

think about your dog’s size, activity level and preferences when considering the safety of a toy.
choose toys for your dog’s size to avoid your pet swallowing and choking on small parts.
remove strings, ribbons, or other small parts that can be chewed off and swallowed.
tennis balls could become lodged in your dog’s throat and block their airways.
rawhide chews could break into chunks that could become a choking hazard.
toys that are coming apart should be removed from play time.
check labels for dangerous fillings like nutshells and polystyrene beads.

Are the materials used to stuff dog toys digestible?

The common materials used to stuff dog toys are not fully digestible (including polyester fiberfill).

What type of toy is best for your dog’s teeth?

The “thumbnail test” is commonly used to test toy safety for a dog’s teeth.
Toys that give to the pressure of one’s thumbnail is considered safe for your dog’s teeth.

Dog toys that made my personal favorite list are:

Tug-of-floor-dog toy

This toy allows your dog to play alone or with others (including yourself) for hours.
