Recommendations for Chew Toys

Linus is an accomplished chewer. He decided this week that his ropes (plural) were tasty in addition to fun, and managed to unknot them and started ingesting them.

He has a Kong. He has a Nylabone.

Any recommendations on other turbo chew toys (other than Momma's arm)? He's shredding everything I give him!

You bet. Tuffies chew toys are a nice soft(er) toy for a serious chewer.

Our favorite (and longest lasting) is the eel. I bought the T rex and Bear took out a personal hit on its tail.

(Note the abuse on the tail. But, I sewed it back together and it's been fine ever since.)
Go to the pet store and they have several toys for "tough chewers"

Those have all worked for us! I wish I knew the name of the most recent one we bought b/c it's awesome. It's shaped like two kongs stuck together going in opposite directions and any time it's turned over, it squeaks. Impossible to break but makes my dog's ears go up when she hears it get thrown!

Bad thing is, ours is such an aggressive chewer that her teeth seemed to have filed down.
Thank you so much! We've gone through several incarnations of "indestructible" toys that he dismantled in minutes.

We'll be going shopping this weekend.

Oh, and some of you have asked for photo updates of the little dude. I just posted some more last night.

Thanks!

I tried this and Casey liked it. The product without treats is kind of ring shaped (it's some kind of indestructible chewable material) but there is a compartment in the center for treats and then you insert two treats on either end to close it and make it ball shaped.

You purchase the treats at the store but the toy does come with one (first one is always free :P ). They are some kind of really hard flavored dental chew. What we did is inserted one treat the way they show you to and then we inverted the second one. He played with it for hours the first day and then seemed to lose interest as he wore down the round side. We only put kibble in the center so maybe if we put liver treats in the center part he would have kept at it...
Ru is a very aggressive chewer, I worry about his teeth. He has a HUGE nylabone which has lasted a while, he seems to like the larger size :D
PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL WITH ROPE TOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When ingested they can wrap around the intestines and cause a potentially fatal blocakage. Someone here (Dudster?) had to have surgery on their pup because he ate a rope toy. I threw mine away immediately after that.
Pedigree made a hard rubber pull toy that my crew loves. A narrow end for the dogs to pull on and the human end has a wide piece of hard rubber to protect the knuckles. We've had them for 8 years and they look pretty good. I keep checking eBay because Pedigree doesn't make them anymore.
I want some more for my children's pets.

Ben destroys soft toys in minutes, but has a very soft rubber squeekie soccer ball (4 inches in diameter) that he has had since he was a puppy. He is now leaving Riley's soft squeekie toys alone. Kids are too strange..
