    Dog toys are essential to keep your dog occupied to stop barking problems, boredom issues and through teething times for your dog. Finding a good toy for your dog through these times is essential, leaving your dog with a bad chew toy that they don't like will leave your dog with no option but to chew something else, there are many chew toys available so the choice is endless.

    Dental health for your dog will be greatly improved by chewing toys so it is important to keep your dog interested in the toy choice you give them. Popular toys usually contain something that tastes good, smells good, some light up, and others make noises to keep you dog entertained. If the toy is fun for your dog then you can use it to reward your dog for good behavior or take it from them when they are bad.

    Different Dogs enjoy different textures and tastes, you will need to find what your dog likes to chew and try your best to find a similar product but without it being as destructive to your house like their old toy, the table leg, was.

    Avoiding tugging toys may be a good idea in some cases, more excited breeds of dog and puppies especially will get the message that tugging is fun for you as well as your dog, thus encouraging him to tug at you trouser legs when they're in need of attention and curtains when they're bored. Personally I would avoid theses toys.

    When looking for a good toy for your dog, here are some good suggestions:

    1. Look for a dog toy with something different like sound, taste, or lights.

    2. Pick a dog toy that is tough enough to withstand your dogs chewing and biting

    3. Choose dog toys that you think your dog will enjoy; using experience of what he normally chews is a good idea.

    Remember that choosing a dog toy all depends on the dog in question, each dog will have different tastes and experiences of what they enjoy, something as cheap and simple as a tennis ball could be enough to keep your dog occupied for hours on end.
