Chew Toys For Every Dog

I'm always trying to think of ways to keep my dog occupied, and I've become a little bit of a connoisseur when it comes to chew toys because Riley goes through them so quickly. Below are a few options that you may like (based on my own experiences with Riley), depending on what you're looking for.

For dogs with bad breath:

Dental Mint Rawhide Chew Treats
$9.99
The rawhide cleans plaque off your dog's teeth, and the mint freshens his breath. The best part is, these chews won't stain your carpet.

For dogs with crazy-strong jaws:

Natural Rawhide Compressed Bones
$5-$25, depending on length
If your dog goes through rawhides far too quickly, and you don't want him to get an upset stomach, try this. Because the beefhide is compressed, it takes nearly triple the time for your dog to finish. Plus, it's much less likely to splinter and cause your dog to choke.

For dogs who could use a teeth cleaning:

Busy Buddy Bristle Bone
$14.99
This bone has nylon bristles and rubber nubs to stimulate your dog's gums and clean off plaque. Just note that you have to buy the Gnawhide chews separately.

For dogs who get bored easily:

Active Snacker Tug Toy
$16.75
Ok, so this isn't necessarily a "chew toy" per se. But, this tug-a-jug toy is interactive, so it will keep your dog occupied for hours. You fill it with treats (most kibble works just fine), and your pup has to figure out how to get the pieces out.

Does your dog have any favorites?
