Do not buy toys that are made of hard materials

 If you buy a toy that is made from a hard material, you can endanger the health of your pet. So, you should not opt for this type of toy if you want to keep your pet safe. All you have to do is to press your fingernail into it and if you can’t make an indentation, then do not buy it because it is too hard for your pet’s teeth. 

According to Mason Romero, veterinarian and advisor at Betterpet, “Don’t choose toys that are too hard or ones that are designed to play tug-of-war with. Veterinary dentists do not recommend either of these types because it can cause trauma to the teeth.”

  1. That was interesting but not helpful. I know not to buy hard
    or soft or with strings, rope squeakers or stuffed. But you failed to describe what is good and WHY your choices are far better than all the things we mortals have given our pets. I usually don’t bother to follow questions that take you on and on but we do have a new stray rescue that was rescued and then given to us. I doubt you will respond, but a bit of help not just “don’ts” like teens need…don’t this and that and a dozen other things, but where are the parents whose house is open to all their kids’ friends and teach what is fun but still a good thing to do. Yes, decades ago our house was where the kids were welcome, now in our sons homes, kids are supervised and welcome. One teen we knew had a goodbye saying to her parent’s admonition…Parents would say, “Be Good and have Fun”,,,,Teen’s reply with “attitude”, “which is it, Be good or have Fun?” Many teens think that way. A Cat and Dog owner and rescuer of kids and pets over 80 yrs old and a marriage of over 60 years marriage to one man. That silly old fashioned couple. Sue
