Planet Dog Orbee-Tuff Ball Large - blue/green

100% recyclable, this doggie-durable, buoyant, bouncy and minty toy is simply irresistible to dogs. It has two holes -- one large enough to put kibble or small treats into it for added fun, and a small one to ensure safety. (Balls and other toys that have only one hole in them -- a byproduct of the manufacturing procedure -- can turn into dangerous traps that suck dog tongues into them as the dog squeezes them.)

These ever-popular, super bouncy toys have a cavity inside for placing a treat -- or, better yet, packing it with layers of different foods for your dog to explore and excavate. This provides lots of chewing pleasure as they work to get the food out, which occupies them and helps to clean teeth and gums. Very durable and long lasting.


Whirrly ToughChew ToyMy dog Brandy is a "tough chewer." She loves to tear apart toys with squeakers in them, throwing the stuffing all around the room. Aside from clicker training, it's her favorite pasttime! But since the average soft toy with a squeaker lasts less then 5 minutes with her, it's an expensive hobby.

I've found some "soft" squeak toys that can stand up to Brandy's chewing, at least for a little while. The "whirrly" toy has held up to Brandy's part-time chewing for almost a year now, although admittedly it's not her favorite toy. (She'll always choose a more desctructible toy if she has a choice!)

While these toys are tough, they're not indestructible, so supervise your dog's interactions with these toys when he plays with them. The "whirrly," the "tugtoy," and the "flyer" are likely to stand up to the most abuse; the animal-themed toys may lose their limbs to really tough chewers.
