Dog Chew Toy FAQs
What is the best thing for dog to chew on? Dogs will chew on just about anything, but it is best to stick with firm rubber or nylon chews. These will be difficult for dogs to chew apart and have a reduced risk of choking and ingestion. It's still vital to supervise your pet with any toy to ensure your dog's safety.
What toys can I leave my dog alone with? It is never recommended to leave your dog unattended with a toy. Even toys designed for solo playtime, like chew toys, can become a choking hazard or cause digestive distress if eaten.

Does your dog love to chew? If the chewing has gotten out of control and spread to your shoes, furniture, or other personal items, it’s time to step in. While dogs have a natural tendency to chew, this doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice the things you love. Instead, just invest in dog chew toys from Home Alive Pets!
Offering a wide selection of rubber dog toys, we carry top brands like Kong Dog Toys, Nylabone, and Benebone. Ideal for dogs who like to chew, rubber dog toys are durable and robust and will hold up much better than plush dog toys or dog toys with plastic squeakers. Even better, brands like West Paw have a lifetime warranty, which means you’ll get your money back or have a new toy sent to you if your pooch does manage to destroy it.
Classic rubber chew toys, like Kong Classic, are versatile chew toys with a long history of being reliable and durable chew toys for dogs. They are gentle on teeth and gums, making them suitable for dogs of all ages. For an even more exciting chewing experience, fill your dog's Kong toy with dog-safe peanut butter and treats for a tasty puzzle toy. A popular option for bored dogs is to try a frozen stuffed Kong recipe, using healthy ingredients like goat's milk, bone broth, or wet dog food.
Some dogs need a little encouragement to chew on the right stuff. The Playology Dual Layer Bone is infused with a natural beef scent throughout the toy that activates as your dog chews. This durable dog toy is perfect for moderate to heavy chewers and can provide a long-lasting distraction that helps to reduce other destructive chewing behaviours.
Another popular style of dog chew toy is those that can hold treats or chews, like the SodaPup MKB Cross Bone Treat Pocket. It can hold all types of large treats and cookies, but its best purpose is as a bully stick holder. The chew toy can firmly grip a bully stick or other similarly sized natural chews, prolonging the chewing experience and preventing your dog from swallowing the end piece whole.
