Please recommend dog chew toys

[OscarQ]

Recently adopted dog is chewing everything (pillows, blankets, carpets) and we can't seem to find the right combo of toys to keep her occupied. We're working with a trainer and will start crate training but I need to keep her busy.

Thanks!

Try lots of exercise. A tired dog is a good dog. Puzzles and lots of walks are helpful.

In addition to exercise, my dog loves chewing antlers. They're much harder than most toys and last her forever.

nylabones in weird shapes. kong toys you stuff with kibble/treats.

These two specifically are the favorites around here. Our dog is big, both in size and how much she chews, and these have saved our furniture. I've foudn them on amazon and in every major pet store.

I second antlers and puzzle toys. Planet dog also has a good range of toys for tough chewers.

We do kongs . I have 10 and on Sunday fill them and freeze them. We give them to our to gsds when we leave for work.


I also really like bark box. The toys hold up pretty well and we get a new supply every month

My dogs love Nyla bones too, they've loved that second one mala posted. You do need to keep an eye on them though if they're hard chewers as pieces can break off. We pull them and throw them away as soon as they get close to that point.

They also like the puzzle treat dispensers and our biggest troublemaker did well when we used one of the food dispensers where he had to push it around to get the food out. We have this one -


Long walks and tons of play time were probably the biggest help though.

We rotate Kongs and stuff them with various things. We wash them in the top rack of the dishwasher... our dogs are a big fan of cottage cheese + kibble.

Thank you all! I just subscribed to Barkbox and will be upping the exercise (I need it too) and I sent a bunch of suggestions to H (he tends to do the pet store trips).

Also, less toys are better. So pick one or two and rotate them if necessary.

I second antlers. Super durable.
