Different dogs play in different ways, so the best toy is one that matches your dog's size, energy level and chewing habits. Rotating several types of toys can also help keep play interesting.
Chew toys
Chew toys are designed for dogs that enjoy biting and gnawing. Choose a size large enough that your dog cannot swallow it, and inspect toys regularly for damage. No toy is completely indestructible, so supervision is important for strong chewers.
Interactive and puzzle toys
Interactive toys can provide mental stimulation by encouraging dogs to search, push, roll or manipulate an object. They can be especially useful during indoor play or when you want to add variety to a dog's daily routine.
Fetch toys and balls
Balls and fetch toys are ideal for dogs that enjoy running and retrieving. Consider visibility, bounce and size when choosing a ball, especially for outdoor use.
Rope and tug toys
Tug toys encourage interactive play between dogs and their owners. Select a rope or tug toy that provides enough length for a comfortable grip and replace it when the material becomes heavily frayed.
Soft and plush toys
Many dogs enjoy carrying or cuddling plush toys. These are usually better suited to gentle players than aggressive chewers.
