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. |
