Indestructible dog toys

My 7 month old cocker is a able to dissect every “strong” toy we’ve tried. He loves pulling out the stuffing so clearly need stuffing free but he destroys toys within half an hour. He pulls the fluff off tennis balls.

But, he loves toys. Are there any genuinely tough toys out there?

@AvocadosBeforeMortgages

I tend to take the view that when I give a toy to DDog, it's his to do with as he wishes - and if he wishes to destroy them, then that's his prerogative.

On that basis, I've been known to go to charity shops and buy children's soft toys from the 50p section - just avoiding (or removing) those with hard eyes or noses. I know DDog will have a lot more fun destroying 10 x 50p soft toys than 1 x £5 dog toy!

That said, ChuckIt balls and Kongs have proved indestructible for even my ball-obsessed terrier

I love this attitude, you are so right! If my ddog didn't actually eat the filling of toys or the pieces he chews off things then I would be happy to do the same, definitely.

Yep, last toy ddog ate the squeaker and was vomiting blood!

I think my dog (GSD/Rottweiler cross- a GermanWeiller if I want to make him a bit more designer....) sees the indestructible label and sees it as a challengeSmile.
Currently have debris on the floor which needs picking up from his latest efforts but the longest lasting have been bought from Aldi - they are blue canvas animal shapes (the last one was a T Rex), with black tape binding around the edges. Unfortunately only on Special Buys but worth keeping a look out if you are in Aldi

Boomer ball is a good call. Kong rubber toys have stood up to two destroyers! You could look at bite tugs.

Ddog likes the kong squeaky balls
But doesn’t really care for any of the other rubber toys we’ve tried. She can pull them apart, but doesn’t enjoy them like she does something soft.

Have found suede seems to last a bit longer and she loves it.

And I look to try to match toys with her mood - sometimes she wants to chew, so she has to put up with the rubber toys. But sometimes she just wants to run up and down making squeaky noises, so I let her have the teddy’s then, but she’s supervised and it’s removed as soon as she starts to pick at it.

As pp have said i buy cheap ones with the intention that she will destroy them sometimes as she enjoys it. But it’s not possible for all toys to be like that because then she would have nothing to play with!
