I have two boxer dogs. And they like to chew. But the dogs toys I buy they tear up within a hour. So?

Question

What can I buy that is hard for them to tear up? They are big dogs so I need something really sturdy.

Please be serious with your answers.

Answer 1

Nylabones and toys like the X-treme Kongs and hard rubber balls too big for them to swallow should last a long time. There's a new thing called the Hurley toy & the Huck ball that are supposed to be tough, but I haven't used one personally.

There's also one called the tough tire

Answer 2

My two living boxers and the one that died a few years ago were never really two fond of Kong's. They like tough plastic squeaky toys. Make sure they are tough ones as if not, they will chew open the toy to "kill" the squeaker. We also have a little black ball made of vulcanized rubber that lights up when you throw it. Avoid all plush -- they think it's prey and "kill it" and then make a mess tearing up the "entrails." Mine also like having their rawhide chews thrown even when I take them out of their mouths -- I would not try that with most dogs, however. (They both have typical boxer senses of humor and like to roughhouse and clown around.)

Boy, do I feel your pain! I live with a chew monster extraordinaire!

I buy her antlerz (naturally shed deer antler), bullstix, Achilles tendons, and ocean chews (dried sting ray tail). She loves them, her teeth are in great shape, and I no longer have holofill all over my house.

I order them from www.petextras.com The nice thing about this company is that you can buy just one of something to see if your dog will like it. They also have free shipping if your order is over $49 (mine always is), and always include some freebies with each order.

They have all kinds of gnaws for dogs. It has sure saved me a lot of fussing at mine for destroying toys, pillows, etc.

Answer 4

Many pet stores sell tough bones that won't hurt the dogs as they digest it. Ask at the pet store for recommendations. Keep in mind that anything that you provide for them to chew on will be swallowed in pieces. My brother's dog loves to play tug of war and he uses an old towel; the strings eventually pass through.

Answer 5

Go to your local pet store and buy two of those big femur bones. I think they come from cows. They have a flavor coating dogs love. I get them for my Rottweiler. They usually last him more than a week. Old tires tied to a tree are also good for entertainment.

Answer 6

There is a toy called a Kong, they come in diffrent sizes and you can fill them with treats to keep your dogs busy. They seem to work pretty well. They brag on being indistructible, so you could try that.

Answer 7

The Kong is the best toy. Ive been use them for years with my dogs
