For any
canine’s owner who is missing in action, doggie toys are the
best distractions. If you have ever come home to be greeted
by an atrocity of chewed up shoes, a gnawed coffee table, or
any other delicacies your dog may find tasty, then you understand
the importance of stocking up on quality toys to keep your pet
entertained.
But not all toys should be accessible to your
canine. For instance rawhide or plush toys may pose a risk to
your dog’s safety. In your absence the following types of toys
should be moved out of the reach of your house pet:
-- Any item that splinters
-- Toys products that tear
-- Any toys that expose dangerous inner pieces
As an alternative, specific types of toy products
are recommended for your dog:
> Tough Interactive Toys are ideal because
they are designed to maintain your dog’s interest while you’re
away. Look for toys where a treat can be stored as the pay-off.
> Rubberized Toys will keep your chewing
and gnawing canine entertained for hours. Shop for durable,
sturdy, rubber toys for your dog. The ability to withstand numerous
hours of fetching, chewing, and gnawing pleasure will divert
your pet’s attention from getting into trouble.
Canine toy tip: The night before you leave
home, freeze take one of your dog’s favorite toys, insert a
treat and then store the toy in your freezer overnight. The
next day, before leaving hope remove the toy from the freezer
and give to your dog.
The advantage to hiding a treat inside of a
frozen toy is to give your dog a soothing affect from the chilled.
More importantly, it requires more of your dog’s time to get
to the treat. Certain doggie toys like the Kong Dispenser will
release treats throughout the day to maintain your canine’s
attention and interest.
