Feeding Toys
These are perfect for providing your dog with an opportunity to be engaged while eating, rather than just gulping their meals down.
Toppl Treat Toy. This is my all-time #1 favorite! Easy to stuff with a mixture of kibble, sweet potato or pumpkin, fruits, veggies, bits of chicken, etc. Once stuffed, wrap in plastic wrap, throw them in the freezer, and they’re ready to pop out for the next meal.
Treat Dispensing Ball This is a treat dispensing ball that can be used either as a play time toy or can be used as part of your dog’s meal time.
Treat Dispenser Ball -2. Another treat dispenser
Lickmats are another great option for freezing yogurt, pumpkin, chicken, etc.
Lick Mat w/suction cups This lick mat has suction cups so can be spread with peanut butter or soft cheese and stuck to any smooth surface, such as a bath tub.
Likimat Wobble Bowl This has become a new favorite of mine. I spread it with cream cheese, sprinkle on kibble and freeze, or mix fruit and yogurt together and freeze for a long-lasting treat.
A Snuffle Mat allows dogs to forage for their food.

I use this snuffle mat for little dogs
Food Puzzle There are several Nina Ottosson puzzles to choose from. Just be sure to supervise with these. My latest puppy found the kibble then started eating the plastic pieces in no time!
Bully Stick Holder/Chew Toy Although this is actually a treat dispenser, I use this as a bully stick dispenser, as I can insert the bully stick either long-wise or cross-wise.
Bully Stick Holder/Chew Toy #2 My dogs love these, not only when there is a bully stick in them, but just to chew on in general.
Miscellaneous Ball, Tugs, etc.
One of my go-to places for toys for active dogs is Clean Run. They have an incredible array of toys, including some awesome fleece tugs! …here’s a link to their website: Clean Run Toys. I also love anything made by West Paw Dog Toys (that’s who makes the Toppl feeder).
Giggle Ball All my dogs love this crazy thing!
Jolly Ball Dogs love chasing this ball around – it’s huge!
Flirt Poles are tons of fun, but read the instructions so you are using safely! I like this one as the pole length telescopes.
Grunting Pigs One of my dogs’ favorites, these grunt instead of squeak. 
Plush Duck One of our favorite soft toys.
A note about fleece tug toys and other DIY ideas:
I admit it, I’m thrifty.
If you know how to braid, your best bet is to head to JoAnn Fabrics, buy a few yards of fleece, cut into strips and braid whatever length you want. If you remember working with gimp, you can do the 4-strand method. If you don’t, there are a million tutorials on YouTube that will teach you how!
Save your old toilet paper cardboard rolls, put some treats inside, fold over the ends and voila! a treat dispenser. Yes, they might eat the roll, but as long as it’s not an every day thing, it won’t kill them. As always, supervise!

Also, in the “I am thrifty” category, just as an FYI, my favorite place to check for dog toys is TJ Maxx/Home Goods/Marshalls…they often have Outward Hound, Holee Rollers, and Multipet dog toys that are the least expensive around!
