Toys

When it comes to toys, dogs need a variety to choose from. Toys can provide intellectual stimulation, prevent boredom, promote dental health, and provide exercise. There are many toys on the market and it is important to choose the appropriate ones for your dog’s needs. Let’s take a look at some of the benefits to toys.

When dogs experience boredom they can quickly fall into mischief around the home. From chewing up important items like shoes and furniture, to digging holes throughout the backyard, many problem behaviours can be avoided with the right selection of toys. By providing toys to stimulate your dog’s natural curiosity, you can help relieve the stress and boredom your dog feels when you are away.

Dental Health is as important to canines as it is to their human companions. Many dogs will resist having their teeth cleaned through the traditional brush and paste method. Professional dental cleanings can be costly and stressful for the dog and owner. Toys that promote dental health will clean as your dog plays. These toys are designed to promote saliva production, helping to prevent tartar and plaque build-up on the teeth.

Exercise is extremely important to your dog’s physical well being; maintaining an appropriate weight can reduce stress on the joints and organs and decrease the risk of illness. Toys that can be thrown and fetched are ideal to promote exercise with the added benefit of bonding between human and canine.

Whatever your dog’s personal needs, there are toys that will help you meet them.
