What You Need To Know When Choosing Dog Chew Toys For Heavy Chewers

By Leslie Ball


If you are a dog owner, you know that providing chew toys to your pup is important. It can help provide them with entertainment and make sure that your valuables don't end up with tooth marks all over them. If you have a dog with strong jaws or who chews excessively, here are tips you can use to select the right dog chew toys for heavy chewers.

Not all canines will like playing with the same type of toy. You may find that it is not always the most expensive item that your dog likes best. Also, if it seems as though your pup is getting bored, switching out items occasionally may help you keep your dog entertained and help you keep your budget at a reasonable level.

One of the first things to do before you go shopping is to think about how large your dog is and how old it is. A full grown dog may not need to change the size of the items it is chewing on but a puppy likely will. A toy that is too large or heavy may be difficult for your canine to carry around. A toy that is too small may not be durable enough to stand up to your pup's teeth.

A fantastic and versatile material for canine toys is rubber. A dense, rubber item can usually handle vigorous play and extended use. They can also be cleaned easily which is helpful if your dog tends to hide or bury its toys. Just make sure that a vigorous session does not end in small nubs or chunks being bitten off or swallowed. You do not want to jeopardize your pooch's health by letting it consume parts of its toys.

If your pup doesn't seem to like rubber toys you may want to look at ones made out of rope. Again, these can be fun as your pup can tug and pull on them as well as chew them. You can find a range of sizes when shopping in North Wales, PA. You may find that options with handles or loops are more comfortable when playing tug with your pup. Always make sure to check them regularly and replace them if individual strands are coming loose.

Soft, stuffed items are not likely the best options for canines with strong jaws. They will often be able to chew holes in the outer fabric and pull out stuffing. Some are designed to be more durable but they usually have little in the way of stuffing.

If you want to compare the different types of chews and items that are available, you may want to look online. You can get an idea of which sizes are best for different breeds or weights of dog. You can also read reviews that canine owners have submitted about various items.

Playing with your pup is a lot of fun especially if you have the right toys to do so. By picking the right options for your pup and checking them regularly for damaged or dangerous areas you and your canine can burn off energy and curb destructive behaviors before they cause problems.
