The 5 Best Toys for Active Dogs

Here are Murdoch’s top picks for the best dog toys for active dogs. Our lovable canines make sincerely affectionate family members, but they really do need toys to keep them engaged and out of trouble. If your pooch is a fetch-obsessed chewer that requires extra tough, high-quality toys to keep him or her entertained, keep reading.

As we like to say, “Save a boot. Buy a dog toy.”

West Paw Designs Zogoflex Bumi Tug

For epic games of tug, this toy is a clear choice. It’s off-the-charts durable, easy on your dog’s teeth, and comes in fun colors. And, bonus: all Zogoflex toys from West Paw are dishwasher safe, because active dogs always seem to get into a mess. Be sure to order an appropriate size toy for your active dog. View Now

West Paw Designs Zogoflex Hurley

The Hurley will bounce in unexpected directions, keeping your dog on its toes during otherwise routine games of fetch. All Zogoflex toys float, making the Hurley a great option for water retrieves. Again, grab the right size for your pooch. View Now

Kong Wubba

This toy has extra fling-ability because of its tails. We also like the tails for dogs who are hesitant to drop their toy; the tails make it easy to grab out of a dog’s mouth. It is built with three layers of fun: non-abrasive, ultra durable nylon exterior, a heavy duty ball, and a squeaker ball inside that ball. View Now
