Dog Toys

Just like humans, dogs can get bored. So, supplying plenty of toys to keep them active and stimulate their brain is an important part of dog ownership. You can also use toys as a reward during training.

Our collection of toys will encourage your dog to stay active and even socialise with other dogs and pets. We're sure you'll find the perfect toy for your dog in our range, which includes softer toys for nervous dogs, balls for interactive play, tough toys for chewers, and more. 

Which dog toy is best for your dog, depends on their personality and circumstances. Most toys designed for dogs will stimulate a predator reaction, which will stimulate your dog. This includes chewing, chasing and squeaky toys, which will allow your dog to use their natural instincts.

But just like humans, dogs have their own personalities and preferences. Some dogs are big chewers, others prefer soft toys If you have a new dog, it can be trial and error to find out what they like. Here are some firm favourites for your dog's playtime:

Tough dog toys are a firm favourite if you have a chewer. If you have a breed with strong jaws that likes to chew, such as a Staffie, look for an indestructible dog toy (though take this with a pinch of salt, as if your chewer wants to destroy it, they will find a way).

When it comes to toys for chewers, look at rope toys, as these can be tough and safe to chew. Kong are known for their tough dog toys, and for serious chewers they have the Kong Extreme, which is also a great boredom buster. Nylabones are another good option for chewers, as these are hard, durable and often flavoured too.

With any chew toy, be sure to supervise your dog when playing, as even though these toys are safe for dogs, there is always a small risk in them swallowing bits that they have chewed off.

If you're likely to be leaving your dog on their own, dog toys can help relieve boredom. For this you want some tough toys that they do not need supervising with.

Dog food toys are a great boredom buster, as they also reward your dog and give them something to focus on as you're not around. Kong have various food toys that you can stuff to keep your dog entertained. You can use their paste to stuff the toy with, or stuff it with treats you know your dog will love. There are also food cubes and lick mats that can keep your dog entertained when you're not around.
