We talk a lot about chew toys here, but I've discovered it's hard to find puzzle toys for our Bullies. They all seem like they're made of plastic that's going to start cracking and splintering as soon as my girl can try to start chomping on it.
A few weeks back I got her a Bob-a-Lot by Starmark Academy. This is made of really thick plastic and I think you'd need to take a sledgehammer to it to break it. But it's also a size and shape that are too big for her to bite. So she's forced to play with the toy as intended instead of trying to just bite it. It comes in two sizes and I have the big one. It looks kind of like a Weeble (if you remember those) and you put some treats or food in the top and there's an opening you can adjust for the food to fall through. As the toy bobs around the food falls into the main compartment and then out another adjustable opening on to the floor. Yummies!
She likes it and it isn't too hard for her. The first time she tried to chew it, but pretty quickly figured out she couldn't. Now when I get it out, she knows she has to push it around to get stuff to fall out.
What else have people found that holds up to our chewers?
