Toys and Treats for the Dogs!
I personally have 5 dogs: 1 red heeler, 1 husky mix, 1 jack Russell, 1 terrier, and 1 terrier/heeler mix! So between 5 different breeds and many different chewing styles, we have tried our fair share of toys!!
this 3 pack is only $2-3 per toy which is much cheaper than buying just 1! and of course you need more than one, because these are fun toy that my dogs will chew until they are gone lol
(3 pack) Multipet Smiling Loofa Plush Dog Toy with Squeaker, 6 inch
when we adopted our husky mix, the shelter gave us this plush lamb to take with her and it is her FAV by far!!
Multipet Jumbo Lamb Chop Plush Dog Toy with Squeaker, 18 inches
My Luna loves her sock monkey, we have probably 3 stashed all across our house where she hides them so no other dog can get to them lol
Vibrant Life Cozy Buddy Sock Monkey Dog Toy, Chew Level 1
dont knock it until you try it! our pup has really bad anxiety and he loves to chew on this at night

cant go wrong with nerf balls. and you can never, ever have enough!
Nerf Dog Squeak Tennis Ball Dog Toy, 2.5 inch, 3 Pack
our red heeler LOVES this when we have to stay indoors. it is a little more expensive for just one toy but it is so worth it!
NUAHRHY Dogs Flirt Lure Pole Stick Toys Pet Interactive Chasing Tail Teaser Wand Training Chewing Rope
our husky cannot get enough of these! they last a long time but we still get the big pack they have online so all of our dogs have one to themselves!
Ol' Roy Natural Beef Dry Rib Bone Chew for Dogs, 1 Count
Mouse Enclosure MUST HAVES
My husband and I bought mice at an impromptu pet store trip, and we were completely unprepared! We had NO idea how to care for mice and had to do all the research in-store and on the way home. It was challenging at first and we definitely should have...
Mice actually need a LOT of space, and that is something they don't tell you when buying them. We got this one that is a 40gallon tank, and it was an appropriate size for roughly 4-6 mice. You need to have enough space for their structures to be buri...
Imagitarium Breeder Open-Glass Aquarium Tank, 40 Gallon
Regardless of what size tank you have, you need to have a sturdy base! This one fits the 40 gallon tank that is also listed in this rec, and is metal and very sturdy! This is a little more expensive option but definitely something that eases the nerves on your tank falling over.
Imagitarium Brooklyn Metal Tank Stand - for 40 Gallon Tanks
Definitely not a full time enclosure, but we've had to transport our mice to the vet and this was a good enclosure for transporting back and forth! NOT A PERMANENT ENCLOSURE!!
WARE Home Sweet Home Teal 1 Story Hamster Cage
We have a few of these log bridges for our enclosure and they are life-savers. If you need something sturdy to provide a base for a food or water pail, these are super handy. They also help when you need to create a separate space for certain things,...
EveryYay Bend-A-Bridge Chew Toy for Small Animals
We also have 3-4 of these little bridges and our mice like to chew on them too. They are great for adding a base between structures and something to climb on to keep them enriched!
EveryYay Wood Ladder for Small Animals
Contrary to popular belief, those small hamster wheels are actually not great for mice or hamsters because it puts strain on their back when they are running on it. This one is a lot flatter so it lets them run more freely without an arched back. It'...
EveryYay Exercise Saucer for Small Animals, Medium
This collection of sticks is actually a really enriching toy for mice, as they chew quite a bit. The only downside I've seen is I have had to buy quite a few of them because having 6 mice chewing on it, it goes quick!
EveryYay Mega Munch Sticks for Small Animals
This is technically for the “starter eclosure" that I have linked as a temporary transport, but they work great to bury under substrates for a hard shell tunnel that they can move between, we have a few packs of them!
Kaytee CritterTrail Fun-nels Value Pack #4
I didnt think we would use this as much as we have, but it has become one of our favorite structures to half-bury for our mice! We turn it on it's side sometimes when we refresh their enclosure, just to mix it up a bit for them. They like to make a b...
EveryYay Natural Wooden Arched Hideaway for Small Animals
We like to turn this upside down and put it inside the arched hideaway that is also linked here! It just adds another layer of stability and comfort for our mice that they love! They seem to make a hole here for their bed more than anywhere else in t...
EveryYay Fox Wooden Hideawy for Small Animals
Be prepared for this to go QUICK! We have to refill it with hay so often because our mice love it!! Its a great way to enrich them and keep them busy! We buy the hay that has shredded carrots and they root through it for a little treat!
EveryYay Cardboard Grass Chew for Small Animals
We mix 2-3 substrates together in their enclosure so they have a variety to make a bed with, and this is what we use for one of our layers. Its a soft bedding and it seems like they like this base for their sleep spots!
Kaytee Clean & Cozy White Small Animal Pet Bedding for Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, and Rabbits 49.2 liters
This is the second base we use, mixed with the soft cotton bedding. We also use it to refresh the hay in the little log we have! They like to pull this hay into the structures that's buried and make their tunnels! We swap between this one and the one...
