Toys for different sized dogs

More and more people are choosing to have multiple dogs in their family.  While there are many positives to having multiple dogs, you can also run into a few problems.  One of the most common problems is trying to find appropriate toys for varying sizes of pets.

I recommend toys that are large enough for your largest pet so that he won't choke on them but small enough or have ridges on them for your smaller pets so they can pick them up and join in the fun too.

Regardless of the type of toy, you will have to watch your pets when they are playing with toys.  It is very easy for large pets to choke on or eat small toys.

Because of this, I recommend hard rubber or nylon toys. The toys that customers have said lasted well between large dogs are the Giggler Ball, The Nobbly Wobbly Ball and Animal Sounds XTire Ball. These toys also have ridges or grooves that allow for smaller pets to pick them up.

Make sure the toys you use with your pets are durable, rated for the type of chewer your pets are and don't have small pieces that can be bitten off.
