What's The Best Dog Toy For Your Adult Dog?

As a professional dog trainer, people often ask me what dog toysI recommend they should buy and which ones I use for my own dogs. Here's the answer: Your dog doesn't need more than two toys. Rotate them, so he doesn't get bored. But remember: We'retalking about an animal that eats the same food, day in/day out. And while your dog needs mental stimulation in the form of playand obedience training, they will be perfectly happy withchewing on the same toys, for years. (Much the same way young children can watch the same Barneymovie 100 times without getting bored!)So. . . what are the two best dog toys in my opinion?- The Kong. Either in red or black. (Sometimes you need to playwith your dog and this toy a bit, before your dog getsinterested in it. . . but once they do. . . LOOK OUT. The benefit ofthis toy is that they can chew on it for months and months, inmost cases. You can also stuff it with doggie treats, creamcheese, peanut butter or whatever. - The rope toy. This is usually sold in either white ormulti-strand colors. It is a thick piece of soft rope, tied in aknot on each end. Another great toy because—compared to therawhide bone—this toy will last weeks or months. There are other popular dog toys on the market, too. Everythingfrom the brain stimulating "Buster Cube" to the tried and truepig ears and rawhide bones. Consult your veterinarian beforegiving your dog any new toy, and supervise accordingly
