Top 5 Dog Toys to Keep Your Pup Busy
When the weather’s bad or your schedule keeps you inside, dogs can get restless quickly. Boredom often leads to chewed shoes, overturned trash cans, and endless pacing. The good news? The right indoor dog toys can keep your pup entertained, mentally stimulated, and happy—all without leaving the house.
Here are our top 5 Wags & Whiskers dog recommended toys that will give your pup the playtime they crave while saving your sanity.
1. Puzzle Feeders & Slow Feed Bowls
These toys combine mealtime with brain games. By making your pup “work” for their kibble, puzzle feeders help slow down fast eaters and engage natural problem-solving instincts.
👉 Try our Interactive Feeder Puzzle Bowl — designed with ridges and compartments to keep your pup engaged for up to 30 minutes at a time.
2. Plush Pet Toys
Sometimes the simplest toys are the best. Plush toys provide comfort, satisfy chewing urges, and are perfect for tossing around the living room. Many dogs love to carry them around like a best friend or cuddle up with them at nap time.
👉 Explore our Plush Pet Toys — available in fun shapes and soft textures your pup will love.
3. Interactive Dog Balls
Unlike traditional fetch balls, interactive dog balls are designed to keep dogs engaged even when you’re not playing. They bounce unpredictably, roll in different directions, and encourage your pup to chase and pounce, burning off energy indoors.
👉 Our Interactive Dog Ball is lightweight, safe for indoor play, and tough enough for daily fun.
4. Chew Toys for Anxiety Relief
Chewing is a natural stress reliever for dogs. Durable chew toys keep jaws busy, help with dental health, and reduce boredom.
👉 Check out our Elk Antler Chews — a long-lasting, natural option packed with minerals.
5. Tug & Rope Toys
For pups that love interactive play, rope toys are a classic. They’re perfect for a quick tug-of-war session, fetch down the hallway, or simply gnawing when they’re home alone.
👉 Browse our Rope Tug Toys — made with sturdy cotton to stand up to even the toughest pullers.
