Barking Up The Wrong Tree

Watch out for bean bag dog toys

Yesterday, I discussed cheap dog toys – or rather, the lack thereof.  A lady emailed me and mentioned that she purchases cheap children’s toys for her dog, as they are generally of the same quality and don’t have loose parts that dogs or children could choke on.  This is a good point, but there is something I feel needs to be highlighted.

Yes, I agree there are a lot of toys that can be used for either dogs or children, however, there is one point that we need to watch for.  I avoid any children’s toys that feel to have beans in the bottom (usually to make the toy stand up) or anywhere else for that matter.  Dogs have teeth and although children are just as capable of pulling a toy apart, if they do so, they usually cry when the beans come out and an adult is never far away (or shouldn’t be) to clear up.  Not so with dogs.  Dogs won’t cry, are often alone and will usually try to eat anything that looks edible.  So avoid any toys with beans anywhere in them and if they are meant for older children, don’t leave the dog alone with them.
