Dogs that chew powerfully can destroy unsuitable toys very quickly. No toy is truly indestructible, so selection and supervision both matter.
Choose the correct size
A toy should be large enough that it cannot be swallowed or lodged in the mouth.
Match material to chewing style
Choose materials based on how your dog actually plays.
Inspect toys frequently
Remove toys that develop sharp edges, large cracks, exposed stuffing or detachable pieces.
Avoid unattended risk
If a toy is only safe during supervised play, store it away afterward.
If your dog swallows part of a toy or shows signs of choking or obstruction, contact a veterinarian promptly.
