SUPERVISE YOUR DOG!!! Our pups love these chews. They take an hour or two to get through them. Once it gets to a choking risk, soak it and microwave it - it puffs up into a popcorn texture!
Mighty Paw Yak Cheese Dog Chews
This one is great for a smaller dog! We used it when Mulligan was smaller and it stayed in tact the whole time. We only stopped using it because he outgrew the size we had!
KONG Ring - Natural Rubber Ring Toy
This is one of the only toys our tough chewers have not destroyed! It has lasted almost a year!
Dog Chew Toy for Aggressive Chewers
Luckily, my dog was smart enough to figure this out, because I was not totally sure how he was supposed to do it! We put his food in it and add some water before freezing. It keeps him occupied for 30-45 minutes!
Dog Puzzle Enrichment Toy, Level 3 Advanced
We had to buy a second one of these because our two dogs couldn't share just one. They love it! They play pretty rough, but we haven't experienced any of the breakage that some other reviews suggest.
Fishbone Rubber Chew Dog Toy - Blue - Boots & Barkley™
To this day, Mulligan's favorite toy. Yes, it will rip, but for a softer toy, it takes longer than others. He loves it so much we let him destroy one every few months.
Chocolate Donut Plush Dog Toy
As far as ropes go, this one lasted awhile. It will come apart if your dog is just chewing on it, but our two have had many rounds of tug with this rope.
24" Rope Dog Toy - Boots & Barkley™ Orange
This brand has lots of snuffle mats that let your dog enrich their sniffin' senses on a hot (or snowy, or rainy, or whatever) day
Joyhound® Classroom Snuffle Mat Dog Toy
This one suctions to the surface which is great. Supervise your dog!! Super chewers will keep going once there is no food and can rip/chew on these.
Enrichment Snuffle Mat
Watch the size on this so it doesn't become a choking/stuck hazard. This toy was tough for our dogs to chew through!
Nylabone® Power Chew Donut Dog Toy
We really liked our BarkBox subscription. We didn't get superchewer (we definitely should have) so the toys didn't last a super long time and we had to watch for squeakers. It was still a great value. We watched and eventually they had a sign up deal...
Super Chewer by BarkBox™ Dog Toy Subscription Box for Tough Chewers
Save yourself from the slobbery hands.
Chuckit! Dog Ball Launcher
Home Items
This fits great in our Jeep. While a little hair slips through the cracks, it has protected our car for a year without any problems. It is easy to move for backseat guests!
Dog Hammock for Car
We finally caved around Black Friday on one of these. It's a little stubborn and needs supervision, but it makes the house look CLEAN. You know how dog hair is.
eufy G30+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum 2000Pa
We keep one of these outside both of their crates so that their water bowls don't make such a huge mess! They're a trendy sort of stylish without attracting too much attention.
Checkered Dog Feeding Absorbent Mats
Easy way to keep our boys hydrated!
Crate Water Bowl
I loved this leash but we accidentally gave it awwayyyyy!!!! The light was so convenient for later evenings. We did have to add on a truly chew proof extender because our young puppy-monster chewed through it.
Retractable 16ft Dog Leash with LED Light
Our 55lb dog used an XL but definitely could have sized down! It keeps him much cooler on these hot days.
Cooling Reflective Dog Bandana
We ordered one of these and it came out perfectly! It is not too hard to read.
Personalized Pet Tag - Elven Scrollwork with Celtic Border
Both our guys can fit in this bed with a little room to spare.
Member's Mark Bolster Pet Bed
It's a little long, but this is a great hands-free leash. It has held up well over time, even with his chewing attempts.
Hands Free Leash
If you've got a life outside the home and an ornery dog or two, or your dog just likes having their own space (like mine), this is a really durable mat. It's easy to clean and makes me feel like they're comfortable.
KONG® Orthopedic Crate Mat
I have ordered a few candles from here and they have been accurate to their description, not too expensive, and people comment on the smell!
Scented Candles, Wax Melts and Body Care Fragrances
We bought this on a deal due to some construction in our house at the time. It worked great for our then-30-lb dog.
