Best durable dog toys: these 4 are up to snuff
Menu
I’ve tried to demonstrate several times on this site that I’m a firm believer in spending a little extra money on quality products. To me it makes more sense to purchase something that’s going to last 10 years, rather than going cheap on something that’ll last a few months. I think dog toys are an example of where lots of people go cheap. I tend to look for the best, most durable dog toys, so I only have to buy them once.
People tend to view dog toys with the attitude of “well, they are going to tear it up anyways, so why spend the extra money?” Dog’s tear up the toys because they aren’t quality- there are several types of toys out there that will last several years. This will save you hundreds in the long run!

KONG Extreme Dog Toy
This dog toy is made with an ultra-strong, ultra-durable rubber compound that will be a match for even the most aggressive chewers.
This toy has three levels of thickness throughout the body of it.
Also, it can be filled with peanut butter or any other treat that you’d like to keep your dog entertained and working for hours.
In all reality, there just aren’t many toys on the market that are more quality than Kong. They’re made to last for years, and they do.
Zanies Cotton Knotted Rope Bone
This is a great toy for your dog- they’re tough, durable, and they come in all sizes for a variety of different dogs.
The wonderful thing about these ropes is that you know exactly what you’re getting. Some other dog toys are made with unnatural chemicals, so a lot of the time, we don’t know what we’re giving to our dogs.
This rope bone is made with natural cotton that’s dyed with vegetable dyes. It’s harmless, eco-friendly, and they’re even great for your dog’s teeth and gums.
When it comes to a rope bone, we highly recommend this one.
KONG Squeezz Stick Dog Toy
If you’re interested in a Kong toy for your dog, but you’d like to try one out before purchasing an expensive one, this toy is a good place to start.
This is a great toy to use to play with your dog. It’s a large stick that you can use to throw and play fetch. Also, it bounces and has a squeaker inside.
It’s also durable enough to be safe for your dog when they’re chewing on it.
All in all, it’s a great starter toy that’ll last a long time, and it has the trusted “Kong” stamp. We recommend it!
Multipet Nuts-for-Knots Ball Dog Toy
This is a great toy to use to play fetch with your dog. Honestly, you can even just give it to them and watch them struggle to tear it apart.
It’s just not going to happen.
It’s made of woven cotton, and it’s so thick that it’s likely they won’t tear it even a little bit despite trying for several years.
It’s safe, machine-washable, and it’s a great investment at under $5. For the price, it really doesn’t get much better than this toy!
