Dogs love to chew on a fun toy. Supplying dogs with toys to play with is important to ensure the health and wellness of your puppy. Toys are not a luxury for your dog, but rather a requirement. Playtime is an essential part of their emotional and intellectual health. Behavioral concerns, such as chewing on things, can develop when your dog does not have the correct channels to follow their behavioral instinct.

Buying your dog a toy is a great way to help prevent boredom when you are not in the house and stop your dog from forming behavioral troubles. Dogs are usually willing to play with just about anything. However, it's suggested to offer toys that offer a range of uses and to alternate them each week to help keep things safe and intriguing. Training dogs to discern their toys from their humans items can stop them from biting on things they shouldn't.

How to choose dog toys: 

Dog toys should be safe, entertaining, and long lasting. Your option for the toys depends on the age, size, and activity level of your pup. The ideal time to present toys into your dog's life is when they are pups to help them develop their teeth, muscular tissues, and joints. Offer pups with toys to gnaw on, go after, bite, and tug as one way of assisting them in flourishing. Puppies with baby teeth will require toys with a softer composition. 

Another crucial element when purchasing dog toys is the overall size of the toy in regard to the overall size of your dog. Too little of a toy is especially dangerous with the danger of swallowing and choking. The toy you choose for your dog should be appropriate for your dogs current size. Selecting the very best dog toy will certainly ensure both a safe and fun playtime. Safety should always come first, followed by entertainment when selecting toys for your dog. 

It's important to supervise your dog while they play with their toys. Visually evaluate their toys occasionally to check that it has not been damaged to present a danger of choking. Remove and replace any toy that is damaged.

There are many options readily available for dog toys: from chew toys, rope toys, fetch toys, squeaky toys, and more.

My pup (Bruiser) sees Ali P. @ Hungry Hound and she has helped break him through some previous grooming trauma. She always does such an amazing job with him. She is kind, compassionate and professional, and always has him ready when she says she will. I appreciate that she has made him sooooo much more comfortable with grooming, which was something that he used to be very scared of! Thank you Ali ❤️❤️❤️🫶

Barb does a wonderful job grooming my ShihTzu mix and my Pomeranian mix. She does it in an hour and a half to two hours. My dogs love her! Christi, the manage/counter person is very friendly and helpful, and is knowledgeable about the dog food. She makes coming into the store a very enjoyable experience!

after recently getting two puppies, i was overwhelmed with all of the new products that are offered for dogs. i heard from a neighbor about hungry hound so i figured id try yet another pet supply store and try my luck. i was pleasantly surprised. the girl working was extremely helpful in helping me navigate my way through buying the best products for my puppies. christi was the one assisting me. she made sure to explain the difference in products to me and help me give advice as to what products would work best for my puppies and my family. she answered all my questions regarding the differences between the various kibble brands and helped me land on what i thought would be best for the new members of my family. she even mentioned the grooming services offered at hungry hound. as a new dog owner i was overwhelmed, however she made this process much less confusing. the customer service was excellent, i cannot wait to go back!
