So far this is the one that lasts the longest for my chomper boy, Wally. Bam-bones plus! He chews daily. It calms him and keeps his teeth clean. Still have to order 3 pack replacements every couple months, but everything else we have tried is ruined in hours or couple days.. He has also done well with the black kong toy.

The only thing I can give to my super chewer is an antler. Not a split antler. A whole antler. He will wear it down but it takes a little time. He can tear through anything and everything else even the bark box toys. I have given up completely.

There are no indestructible dog toys . I used to think kong brand were but our beagle pup proved me wrong . She’ll be 1 year old this month , we’ll have had her 1 year in feb . She had destroyed kong toys , nyla bone toys , pretty much any toy you give her . She has chewed up 2 pair of wifes nursing shoes , a pair of crocs , i have no idea how many pair of flip flops , 4 or 5 throw rugs that the wife used to keep on our kitchen floor . She chewed the carpet on the corner of our steps . My wife left a stack of cash on end table on living room it got chewed up she chewed the cord of our bed room air conditioner into pieces whileIt was plugged in . were constantly buying her chew toys to keep household items from being destroyed . Oh and she also chewed my jalapeño pepper plants off and has trashed some of the wifes outdoor plants as well . Shes a very lovable dog and shes best buds with our doberman mix but shes a real hand-full and i hope she soon grows out of this . We have sprayed around the house with bitter cherry with limited success

I like the firehose toys. They aren’t indestructible but they tolerate a lot of chewing and are Charlie’s favorites.

Nylabones for aggressive chewers. We’ve used them for years with German Shepherds, Pitties and Bullmastiffs. No problems, just get rid of the chew when it gets too worn down and small. As a bonus, the dogs have all had excellent teeth.

Super Chewer by Bark Box has been the best but my boy still finds a way to chew off tiny little pieces until it’s gone takes several months of him hiding them from us, us hiding them from him, etc

It is a raw marrow bone. Occupies them for hours and good for their teeth. There’s no such thing as indestructible toy. It depends upon the dog. I own an Akita. They are usually pretty destructive dogs. My girl just nibbles on everything—food, toys. She hasn’t destroyed any toys at all and she is one year old. She has million of toys—more than I had as a kid. And the reason she doesn’t destroy them because she is never bored with them.

Other than Kongs these toys are the next best! I got them at PetSmart in the “tough dog toy section”… my Malinois can still get into them but they last for months…. You can see the stages of destruction. The firstOne he went through the fabric, the second one the seam and the third one is still in good shape. But once he gets fixed on the squeaker there’s no turning back!

#WestPaw Durable toys are the ones that survive in our home. Kong toys are good too but our pups don’t grab them from the toy box like they do West Paw.

Out ‘ Iron jaws’ boy did well with Goughnuts. He’s now over 5 years old and still has the original toys. He no longer plays with them, I think because he wasn’t able to destroy them.

West Paw Zogoflex toys. We have a yellow lab who can destroy ordinary pet toys within 15 minutes!! M hasn’t made a dent in any of these, and have been buying them since 2018. She does lose them in the weeds sometimes… we live in the country. These toys cost more, but they’re worth it! They come with a guarantee, and are made in Bozeman, MT! I’m always happy to find something not made in China!

Charlie usually destroys any toy he can within minutes. This one, at least for him, has stood the test of time. These rubber like Nerf footballs seem to work out well. https://www.amazon.com/…/B013J9…/ref=sspa_mw_detail_2…

Huggle Hounds from Chewy have lasted the longest for my lab. She’s a 7 out of 10 on toy toughness, she mostly loves to thrash and twist their necks, and this one has lasted a few months. The material is almost corduroy and thick.
