Safe Toys List

ANY TOY OR CHEW CAN CAUSE CHOKING OR INTESTINAL BLOCKAGE-SUPERVISE YOUR DOGS WHEN USING THEM.


Kongs- Provides your dog with a rubber texture. The black ones are for the strong chewers. They can be stuffed with the Kong Stuffings, peanut butter, and dog food. You can make Kongcicles for teething puppies by soaking dry dog food and mashing it up. Stuff the Kong and freeze it.

Nyla bones- The durable ones. These now come in many shapes, sizes and flavorings. They provide a hard chewing surface.

Booda Bones- Rope bones. A soft texture for chewing which also cleans teeth. Should your dog swallow the string it passes harmlessly through their system.

Hurley by West Paws- A new item on the market. I have had them in my back yard for about three months now. I have strong chewers and there is not a tooth mark on them. My dogs like them too. The new ball is extremely popular with my lab.

Steer Chews- These are to replace the raw hides. They are fully digestible. Because they are ground up they are less likely to break in pieces and cause your dog to choke. There are also reports of the imported raw hides and pigs ears containing mercury and formaldehyde.

Buster Cubes- This is a puzzle toy that you can use to feed your dog with. It holds the dogs attention and makes it work for its food (like in the wild when the dog hunted).

Treat Ball – Another puzzle toy.
