Fun and games

Hi

I bought a couple of ‘dog-proof’ toys for my Staffie, Mac, for Christmas but they haven’t lasted long.

We’ve just booked to go camping during the Easter school holidays and will probably go in the summer, too, and I wonder if anyone knows of any decent, long-lasting toys that can be carried around outside by dogs with strong jaws?!

Cheers

Top toys for strong chewers

Hello Dogs Today team,

I have a question regarding chew toys for my puppy. Fay is now 12 weeks old and is a Vallhund who loves to chew and destroy her toys.

When I brought her home I gave her a few different toys; a soft toy, a rubber toy, a ball and a rope toy. However, I have had to replace many already, she ate part of the soft toy (it found its way out luckily), ripped the rope apart and chewed lumps out of the rubber toys. So after advice from her breeder I bought an adult red Kong and some other chews, she has had the Kong three weeks and has already chewed small lumps out of it and I can’t see it lasting much longer.

I’ve brought rope toys from the rough and tough range from Pets at Home at the same time and they are starting to fray as well. The only things that are lasting are stuffed and smoked bones, and nylon bones; I tried a pork roll but it upset her stomach and rawhide chews don't seem to last that long either.

I’m planning to get her a black Kong soon but was wondering if anyone can suggest good chew toys for strong chewers?

Thank you,

Joanne Stockbridge and Fay, by email

On the ball?

Can anybody help us find a ball like a football that re-inflates itself the more times it gets punctured? We bought one from crufts a few years ago and it was the best thing we bought for our Bearded Collie x Lurcher who is now 13yrs old but loves to chase her football round the field. Unfortunately she has now torn a hole in it and we have been unsuccessful in finding another one for her as we can't remember the name of the stall where we got it from. We would be very grateful for any suggestions as to where we may find one. Thank you.

Wow, a ball that reinflates! We'd like to find that! Anyone got any ideas who makes it? Anyone else got any indestructible toys they'd like to recommend?
