Cute Plush Dog Toys: Choosing Beyond the Look

A cute plush dog toy can be fun to give and pleasant to have around the house. But appearance is only a starting point: choose a toy that suits how your dog actually plays.

Three useful checks

• Size: Check the product measurements and choose a toy your dog can carry without being able to swallow it whole.
• Construction: Look at seams, stuffing and attached details. Small parts can become a problem if a toy is torn open.
• Play style: Plush may suit gentle carrying and shared games. It is not automatically a chew toy, however cute or substantial it looks.

Keep the game going

Use the toy for the kind of play described on its product page. Supervise play, inspect it regularly and stop using it if fabric tears or filling becomes accessible.
