As anyone who has ever owned a puppy already knows, dogs love to chew on things. Even with age, the urge to chew will not disappear.

As anyone who has ever owned a puppy already knows, dogs love to chew on things. Even with age, the urge to chew will not disappear.
Channel that gnawing instinct into something less destructive for your home by giving them something to really sink their teeth into.
Chew toys range from the simple to the sophisticated. At the uncomplicated end of the scale come the soft toys. Furry, durable toys your dog will love to chew, carry and retrieve. Multipet Curly Pets Dog Toy comes in Monkey, Kiwi, Frog and Pig and has the added bonus of a squeaky toy inside.
The tough Squirrel Hide-A-Toy will be your dog's favorite. Finally an animal they can pursue and capture for some gratifying chewing! The toys available from Jakks Pacific are soft, double stitched for durability, and squeak amusingly when your dog chews them. It's time for Rabbit and Opossum to play - let's go!
Though they may be very chewable, dogs are more responsive to a toy that pleases their taste buds. The Premier Busy Buddy Gnawhide ring, for example, comes in a variety of sizes, from small to large, tastes great, and will last for many hours. Fitting the Gnawhide ring inside Bouncy Bones increases it's longevity up to ten times!
Likewise, clever chew toys incorporating edible treats that must be chewed out will challenge your dog mentally for hours on end by making them work harder to receive their treats.
Check out the large, heavy duty vinyl Omega Paw Tricky Treat Ball, which allows your dog to dispense treats on his own by playing with it. Easy to grip, the toy makes playtimes even more amusing by dispensing snack-size treats!
The Kong Extreme comes in different sizes for different dogs - made from durable ultra-flex, a kind of non toxic natural rubber, it can be stuffed with treats such as Kong Stuff'N Mini Beef & Liver or peanut butter paste for hours of tasty chewing amusement.
If your dog is toy sized breed, the Premier Twist and Treat Small might be a better choice. The Twist and Treat's durable natural rubber is easy to fill and clean, and it's a great interactive toy for your dog's play time.
For dogs who are watching their weight the Crazy Pet Bumble Ball might be an ideal solution. It teases with its shaking and wiggling which make it seem almost alive, Your dog will go crazy trying to catch this toy! This means hours of calorie burning fun and a sleeker, happier dog.
Chewing doesn't have to be annoying! Stave off boredom and be a better owner by channeling your dog's natural instincts into a positive exercise.
