The Best Dog Toy Ever

65

By p frank

I've owned a dog boutique for six years now. Customer comments that I hear almost daily are "my dog can tear up a toy in two minutes," "he always pulls out all the stuffing," and "my dog doesn't stop until he gets to the squeaker."

My favorite dog toy is made by the West Paw company right here in the U.S. The toy is make with a recycled material they call Zogoflex which makes it pliable, able to float and virtually indestructible. I don't recommend this toy because I own a dog shop. I recommend this because I own a Lily.

Lily is pictured on my profile. She is the beguiling rescue with a polka dot ear and an ability to annihilate all things plush. She removes squeakers with surgical precision and impressive speed. Lily is the supreme destroyer of rubber. When she got her first West Paw toy she first regarded it with disdain.-one more victim-another trophy to be claimed. Then she pounced on it and busied herself with the job of dismantling it. To my surprise and hers she came up for air with a still intact toy. It had been chewed hard but no damage-not a mark. She licked it for a while as if to congratulate the toy on its ability to amuse her and then she went in for the kill...still no visible signs of damage. This West Paw Hurley is now her favorite toy-her only toy. It is a worthy opponent-a dear friend who will suffer her abuse and still hang around for another day..

If you have that kind of dog that destroys every toy I highly recommend the West Paw Zogoflex collection. They come in several varieties and assorted tropical colors. They have a ball shaped Huck, a bone-shaped Hurley and a frisbee-like disc. There seem to be very few things in the world that work -very few things that deliver what they promise. West Paw toys promise to be durable, lasting dog toys and they are.

I read about these toys on a pet message board written by someone who worked at a zoo. The golden eagle there could puncture tractor tires with its toe. It played with a Hurley and never even made a dent. I've sold them at our Puppy Love dog boutique for several years now. I offer a money back guarantee if these toys show pet damage. So far I have a lot of people return to sing their praises. No one has returned a damaged toy. I am sure one day someone's crazed junkyard animal will break this record but for now- for me and for Lily- this is the best dog toy ever!

Yes I agree! Hurleys are the best! My friend's daughter is a police officer with a K9 and she really likes them. Before her dog got the Hurley she was a non-believer in spending on toys because they never lasted. Now her dog has one in his mouth every minute he's off duty, and she's happy to get Hurleys for her dog to reward him for a job well done! Great writing - looking forward to reading more Hubs from you.
