Any recommendations on a stuffed chew toy that is virtually indestructable?

The Skippa is making a quick mess with the stuffed chew toys I get him locally. What took a few weeks a couple of months ago, now takes 2 days to completely eviserate and destuff. There's gotta be some chew toys with a kevlar type covering.....

No stuffing but a super sturdy chew toy that will also dispense chow and treats might be an option? thatcrowwoman Jun 2023 #12

I tie two unstuffed toys back together and he loves them. They last a long time that way. He will play with them til I feel they are just too unsightly.

His fav was an Octopus with eight stuffed legs and the stuffed body. I was tying loose legs together for weeks. Still a small ball over there in his toy basket.

some are 3 day toys. She can take out a Kong in an evening. Probably a 1 day toy.
These are the best we've found and they last longer if we take them away when she is done chewing and just wants to destroy the toy:

There is not a stuffed chew toy on earth that my Molly (GoodGolly!) can’t destroy the squeaker and completely unstuff in under 10 minutes. She’s about 50 pounds of about 10 years old pittbull mix. We rescued each other 9 years ago last month and are becoming old ladies together.

I finally found a chew toy with a squeaker and no stuffing. It’s been more than 2 months and the toy and its squeaker are still in excellent condition. They are out of stock at Chewy, but here’s a link to the maker’s website. Disclosure, I’m just a big fan, I don’t receive any compensation for this recommendation.

Search their site for Busy Buddy® Squeak ‘n Treat Troog. We got the Large one for Molly.

Good luck!

The Skihas a few hard rubber chew toys, but no inyerest in using them. Stuffed toys and tennis balls are his specialty. Maybe one of these would be of interest with the squeaky built in.ppa
