Best Fetch Dog Toy
-
My dog is obsessed!
I just got these today and gave one to my dog and he hasn't stopped paying with it in about an hour. He's a heavy chewer and these seem pretty tough so far! I've a very happy pup, so I'm happy! :D
-
Fun for me and my dog!
Love the bounce, size and the texture which makes it easy for my small dog to grab. These are superior to other felt covered tennis type balls which my dog would chew on and pull the covering off. Much safer!
-
More Orange Making it Easier to See
Our 71 lb Goldendoodle loves to play fetch. These balls are readily visible to her and me, especially in grass
Best Dog Plush Toy
-
The moose was cute and sturdy.
He can't destroy it. This is his second one and the first one is still playable, just lost the squeak, but he still love it along with his new one.
-
One of Their Favorites
We now have two of these and one or the other of our girls is always carrying one around. They seem to love them. And they wash up in the washer and dryer just perfect.
-
Well made toy
My dogs fight over Mr Moose! He is a nice size, not too small or too big! Glad we bought him!
Best Dog Puzzle Toy
-
interactive game
My Cavalier is a very picky eater. She has enjoyed sniffing out and then, consuming her food! She quickly figured out how to open and move the little boxes.
-
Winner chicken dinner
My aussie baby gets too bored with a standard bowl for her meals. When I put her kibble in this puzzle, she eats it all! Usually. I have to mix it up.
-
Challenging
My German shepherd is too smart for his own good. We have found using puzzles like these to give him some mental stimulation and he loves it. It is challenging enough that it keeps him busy for at least 10 minutes and he doesn’t destroy it.
Best Tug-of-War Toy for Dogs
-
Good distraction
This is a good distraction during quiet time when Loki isn't trying to throw it around. He has managed to tear at the strings, but they come off in little pieces, unlike most of the rope-style toys.
-
Cotton rope with bones
Both of my strong teeth dog chewers like this product. I have repurchased this item. Dogs may eventually chew the rope away, but they still enjoy chewing on the bones. I would recommend this product.
-
Not sharing
Both of our dogs love this toy, I may have to buy another because there is a lot of whining while waiting your turn.
Best Dog Chew Toy
-
Great way to keep your dog enriched if they don't get frustrated by them!
I love Kongs, but my German Shepherd gets very frustrated with them! That being said, we donated our Kongs to a family friend and their Border Collie absolutely loves them! The classic isn't as durable as the extreme, so keep in mind there may be teeth marks leftover if your dog is a little tough on their toys. That being said, we haven't had any issues with damage or chunks coming off of it!
-
Time and durability
It did take Lexi a bit of time to dmget the treat and she still hasn’t destroyed the Kong as she does most toys. Being a red heeler she needs lots of puzzles and activities.
-
Kong is King!
My dog loves this, filled with peanut butter that’s been frozen. This occupies her for quite a while, and is a treat.
Best Treat-Dispensing Dog Toy
-
Favorite Durable Entertaining Dog Toy
I bought one 8 years ago for my first dog. It looks about the same. Just bought another one for our new puppy so they each get their own. This toy lasts forever and it keeps them entertained as they try and figure out how to get the treats out. Also a gift I give to friends who have new puppies
-
takes a long time for the german shepherd to break
at any given time we have about 6-7 of these that our furbaby has throughout the house and yard. Happy dog, happy life.
-
Great design for snack and play
Size and design was perfect for our golden retriever. Design allows quiet bounce for play and cutout for hiding snacks. Water resistant and tough enough for strong chewers
Best Puppy Toy
-
These are wonderful
I have purchased these many times. My dogs love them. I recently purchased them for some foster pups I have so when they go to their new homes they can take a brand new one with them.
-
a favorite !
my 3 month old puppy loves to teeth and play with it and can be entertained by it for a while
-
Great puppy teething toy!
My puppy LOVES this chew toy and so does his big brother! It’s very durable and very popular at my house!
Best Hide-and-Seek Dog Toy
-
the look
My dog loved this and it was perfect to give him a little challenge. He did manage to obliterate the avocado leaving stuffing everywhere, but that's usually what he does.
-
Puppies Favorite!
I don’t know why but my two different age, unrelated puppies adore playing with this toy. My Chiweenie has adopted the avocado as her baby!
-
A must-have toy!
My 9-month-old Cockapoo is obsessed with this toy! She will play with it for hours he longest time. For some reason, she particularly loves the little avocado toy that goes inside it.
Best Dog Squeaky Toys
-
Value
The price was perfect for the 3 pack. Gwinn loves them. She has destroyed two we got 3 weeks ago. Not these!
-
Large enough to find outside.
My blue heeler loves carrying these in her mouth when we go to feed the chickens and let them out. She has to have something in her mouth and this fits the bill.
-
Surprisingly sturdy for a fabric toy!
When my dog is done swinging these toys around, whacking himself in the head, it lies down with one between his paws and chew on it. The fabric is holding up surprisingly well and has not ripped or let the squeaker out.
Best Toy for Large Dogs
-
Durability & distance
This Kong frisbee is a must have. Nothing is indestructible, so if you leave it unattended, you get what you get. However my GSD, who is quite the chewer, is smart enough not to chew it. We have two of these. Their distance is a four out of five stars, but I don’t want it going over my fence so I haven’t gone overboard as to its limits. I’m admittedly, not the best frisbee thrower in the world, so I’m very satisfied. We recently added a Chuckit! Glow-in-the-dark Frisbee to the collection and it’s distance is incredible. Loyal to our Kong frisbees first and foremost.

Doesn’t fly, but a BIG hit with my Shih Tzu
My little Shih Tzu loves frisbees! Flying isn’t a necessity for him, as he enjoys rolling them on their edge, carrying them around, and flipping them in the air to try and catch them. He has yet to catch one, but that doesn’t dampen his enthusiasm. The problem with all of the others I’ve bought is they don’t hold up to him gnawing on them. He’s not an aggressive chewer, but the others were made of hard plastic that shattered. This Kong frisbee is made of very soft, flexible rubber. It’s too floppy to roll on its edge, which he would love, but he loves shaking it and chasing it when I throw it. It’s a stretch to consider it a...
-
Durablity
The item was easy to throw and pick up off cement. Harder frisbees are so difficult to pick up off solid surfaces.
Best Toy for Tough Chewers
-
Dog twig bone
My lab loves these bones. The sound when he is chewing it is a bit lije nails on a chalkboard but it keeps him occupied for a long time and it lasts!
-
Favorite Chew
Our Callie, who is a heavy chewer, loves this chew toy. She picks it out of her toy box, usually of an evening. I think it helps her to relax when she knows it's time for bed. Only thing, she makes a lot of noise enjoying it. Great chew toy.

Toy
