Favourite dog thing

What is your most favourite dog product - the one that you really couldn't do without for your dog or the one your dog really likes best? For me it has to be the ball chucker - honestly it used to kill me bending over to pick the wet slobbery ball up all the time and I could never throw it that far for them either, these things are just amazing as far as I am concerned.

kongs are a pretty good dog product

There isn't one thing, but I do know, whatever it is, they better never stop making those things that are indestructible!! as those things made out of hard rubber.

Our dogs love the Kongs, and the nylabones. We do allow the rope toys, but only under supervision. We fill the kongs with liver sausage or peanut butter and they love them...

I always keep extra kongs stuffed withe peanut butter and banana in the freezer for when we will be gone for a lengthy time. I know that will keep them busy for a long time, LOL.

What a great idea! I've stuffed cookies into Wally's Kong, but never thought to freeze it--do you actually fill it up, or just smear stuff on the inside? That will be great this summer (assuming we EVER have more than 2 days in a row of 'summer'!)

I pretty much fill it up, not only with peanut butter, but anything they like. I also throw in some kibble to use as filler too. Carrots, anything really will stick to the peanut butter and keep them busy for a long time.

Doreen, that is a good idea to freeze, as with the heat, it makes the dogs cool off as well, as it takes longer to get at and eat the goodies :0)

I like that idea too, Doreen. I'm going to try it tomorrow.

Buddy loves bully sticks. I wish they weren't so much money because he can go through them like nothing.

Right now his favorite toy is a plush puppy with a unbelievably loud squeaker. It has also lasted much longer than any squeaker toy he's ever had - in spite of daily attempts to destroy it.
