Best Dog Toys for Aggressive Chewers
Picture this: Chloe's Labrador, Tank, could take a new toy apart before the weekend was over. She wanted something that would last longer than a trip home from the store.
Why Strong Chewers Need a Different Kind of Toy
Some dogs chew hard, and plush or thin toys do not last long. The toys that work best for strong chewers are built to last, with a solid shape, a textured surface and a way to fill them so chewing stays interesting.
Chewing is a natural thing for dogs to do. Giving them a toy made for it also gives them something better to chew than shoes or furniture.
The Chew Toys for Aggressive Chewers
The Molar Chew Toy has textured grooves, a place to fill with kibble, peanut butter or treats, and comes in yellow, green or blue. The Corn Dog Chew Toy is shaped like a corn cob, can be filled with treats and comes with a removable cotton rope for tugging. The Crocodile Dog Chew Toy is the longest chew toy at 23.6 cm, with a textured body that you can fill with kibble, peanut butter or treats.

How to Choose the Right Chew Toy
Start with your dog's size. The Molar and Corn toys are listed for small and medium dogs, and the Crocodile is listed for dogs of all sizes. Then think about how your dog likes to chew: a rope for tugging, a place to fill, or a long body to hold.
For more detail, see my guides to why durable chew toys matter, comparing the corn, molar and crocodile chew toys and chew toys for puppies. Pairing a chew toy with a puzzle toy from my enrichment guide gives a good mix of play.
Mixing Chew Toys With Other Play
A chew toy is one part of a good toy box. Add something to chase, such as the USB Vibrating Ball Toy, and something to solve, such as the PawSlide Puzzle Feeder, and your dog has three different kinds of play to choose from.

Let customers speak for us
Willow loves eating out of this leaf feeder! The construction is very good quality and feels solid/ not like it’s going to break. She is a picky eater and doesn’t normally eat full meals but will eat full meals out of this! Love the grippy bottom so it doesn’t slip. Nothing to complain about :)
Golden Luca is pretty and it has my name and phone number on the flip side.
I bought it for Bao Bei to help him eat slower, also have a unique feeding bowl
He is busy with it for hours and also I can fetch the toy when we want to spend time together
It made Sabar’s meal time more than double and I enjoy watching him eating from his unique bowl
My paw was eating too fast and this bowl helped me to fix this problem
It can keep my cat's busy for a long time, but it should be under supervised I think. Long time playing with it can make them tired!
Maki playing with her ball. 😀
I'm using this stuff to keep my puppy busy and happy everyday.
It keeps my puppy busy for more than 30 mins every time for a meal. and even after that she plays with it around as long as She get tired!
Fun "beginner level" toy. Works for cats too:)
Durable plastic, feels nice.
it is a bit hard on the walls but the cat just watches it. Does not interact with it. The ball works really well for what it is supposed to do.
If it was a bit softer the cat might enjoy it more.
I gave one to a neighbour who's dog loves it. She has a small dog so the size is just right.
Great bowl and such fun. Amazing the difference in time it now takes for my puppy to finish her meals. Much healthier for her! And she loves to play with it once it’s empty
Got this toy for my girl Archie and she absolutely loves it! It’s super durable, keeps her entertained for hours, and the treat dispenser is a fun bonus. Totally worth it
As soon as this ball comes out he gets very excited. The ball allows him to play by himself with the ball. His favourite toy by far.
