What to Look For in a Great Dog Toy
Some key features:
Durability / safe materials: Toys should be made from non-toxic, pet-safe materials and withstand chewing without breaking into dangerous shards.
Appropriate size: The toy should be large enough that it can’t be swallowed, and suited to your dog’s jaw strength.
Function / enrichment: Toys that encourage mental stimulation (puzzles, treat dispensers), physical play (fetch, tug), or chewing are all good for different needs.
Rotating playthings: Switch toys in and out so your dog doesn’t get bored.
Supervision & replacement: Always monitor new toys, and discard any that are becoming damaged.
