Perfect for young pups who get bored easily!
Color: Bacon, Color: Bacon
Our pup recently turned 1 and gets bored very easily, so she’s always looking for something new to chew or play with. We got her this little alligator toy and she is OBSESSED with it! She carries it everywhere and plays with it constantly. I’m honestly surprised by how durable it’s been considering how much use it gets. If you want to help save your furniture and household items from becoming chew toys, do yourself a favor and grab this for your pup!

Extremely durable but too large for our Aussie
Color: Bacon -Blue
This toy is very solid and seems like it would hold up well for aggressive chewers, but it ended up being too large and heavy for our Australian Shepherd. He had trouble comfortably holding it in his mouth and wasn’t very interested in chewing on it because of the size and weight.
The quality itself seems good, but I would recommend it more for larger dogs with bigger jaws that enjoy heavier chew toys.

Indestructible toy
Color: Bacon
This is a great toy. I have a husky pit bull mix puppy that can chew anything. I swear that dog can chew the varnish off a furniture. He cannot chew this up.I highly recommend

Beloved But Beware Microplastic Chip-Offs
Color: Bacon
My doodle adores this thing and gnaws on it constantly. He has not been able to harm it, which is great. That’s the best part. Things to be aware of:
1. This is mostly molded plastic; it is a bit heavy and very hard. My dog tosses it into the air and if it lands on him, it HURTS. A lot.
2. While it’s sturdy, sharp teeth eventually gnaw pieces and little shavings off the toy. These are microplastics and could be harmful if your dog swallows them.
