Tuffies

February 18th, 2007

 

The dog in the picture is my Parson Russell, Ricochet,  with one of his favorite toys, a Tuffies Rumble Ring. Can’t you just see the glow of adoration in his eyes for his toy? Okay, so that is my lousy picture taking, but honestly, it is one of his favorites and one of the most durable toys he has.

Made with 3 layers of material, 2 of those are industrial strength nylon. It has stitching across the toy and has multiple rows of stitching on the edges to make it harder for your dog to chew through. The toys also contain squeakers but because they are under the layers of fabric they are MUCH quieter making it nicer for the humans in the household. For dogs who are a bit harder on their toys, they have Mega Tuffies which are made with 7 layers of material, 3 of them PVC! They offer a Tuff Scale on their site for you to see what level of toy your dog would do best with. Check out their site to see which Tuffies toy is best for your dog.

Remember, even with all this durability built into it, the toy is not a chew toy. All play should be supervised and if you have a dog who is super destructive, it would be best for you to play with your dog using the toy rather than letting your dog play by himself. We have had the Rumble Ring that is in the picture for over 6 months and it is almost as good as new. I bought the Jr. Tuff Log  (Tuff Scale 5) and Malarky put a hole in it the first night and finished it off a few days ago. I will probably stick to the thinner Tuffies, like the Rumble Ring (Tuff Scale 9) that don’t have as much stuffing although you never know, Ricochet really enjoyed the Jr. Tuff Log.  They also have some real cool dinosaurs(Tuff Scale 7) and then there is the Sting-ray (Tuff Scale 6).  Decisions, decisions….

Likes: 

- very sturdy, should stand up to the activity of most dogs

-quiet squeakers, great for those dogs who have a lot of prey drive and just want to kill the squeaker, plus much easier on our ears.

- Tuff Scale, love having a guide to go by to see what toy is best for my dog

Dislikes:

-I really can’t think of any.  This is the toy I would have liked to have invented to stand up to some tough terrier play.
