Is there anything cuter than a pup and their favorite plush dog toy? Both large dogs like Poodles and Golden Retrievers and small dogs like Dachshunds and Beagles seem to love soft, stuffed dog toys. Whether your dog is a high energy puppy or just experiences boredom from time to time, there’s a plush toy out there they’re sure to fall in love with.
If your dog is all about that squeak, there are tons of great options to choose from! Check out the large Outward Hound Squeaker Matz Gator Dog Toy for big fun. It’s a giant sized alligator with rows and rows of squeakers and minimal stuffing for fun games of tug. This brand also created the beloved Hide-A-Squirrel® Plush Puzzle Dog Toy. This is a plush burrow toy featuring squeaky squirrels that your dog can dig out of the plush log over and over. There are lots of cute plush puzzle toys just like this from brands Zippy Paws and Snugarooz too, featuring designs with unicorns, bears, wolves, and foxes.
If you’re looking for something durable, try the popular Dizzy Hedgehog Two-in-One Squeaker Ball Dog Toy which is a plush toy with a ball inside.
