Toys We Recommend


Stuffed animals and cheap plastic toys were short lived with our two labs. We learned quick that it was smart to shell out a few extra bucks for the higher quality, tough toys. And by tough, I mean TOUGH!!! Here are three of our favorites:

All Kong products are great! We recommend the Extreme Kong, King size. We never purchased any of the Kong filler treats, but rather stuffed them with our own goodies and they even have recipes on the Kong website. We feed our dogs their meals in Kong on a fairly regular basis which keeps them from inhaling their food, keeps their minds active and keeps them entertained for a bit.

Buster Cube is another food dispenser, but is a little more challenging for the pups. It is fun to watch them try and figure out that if they kick this blue, plastic cube around enough it releases treats.

Our final favorite and non destructible product we use is a 10 inch bleached, steralized hollow bone. We fill the ends with peanut butter, throw it in the freezer and in an hour the pups can't wait to lick away their chilled treat.

We purchase most of our products from Jeffers Pet, an Alabama based company. We order the products online and within 48 hours (usually 24 hours) we have our goodies on our front porch.
