What to consider when purchasing a 2-in-1 dog toy

Supervision:‌ When your dog is playing with a two-in-one toy, it's important to supervise your dog. These toys are designed to be played hard with, but that doesn't mean they are indestructible. Supervise your dog while they play with these toys to make sure they don't chew off any small pieces of the toy that could be a choking hazard.

Size:‌ Make sure to select an appropriately sized toy for your dog to safely play with. Toys that are too small can be choking hazards for dogs. They can also be swallowed, which could create an obstruction that would be a veterinary emergency for your dog. If while playing, your dog removes a part of the toy that is a small choking hazard, be sure to remove that from your dog.

Playing Style:‌ These multipurpose toys are ideal for dogs who enjoy tearing, ripping, and tugging with their toys. These toys are generally made of durable materials to last longer during play. Consider your dog's preferred playing style when selecting toys. For example, if your dog likes to tug, select toys that are made for pulling and can withstand that kind of play. If you have a dog who loves to shred their toys, many of these two-in-one plush toys will be a real treat as they will open their toy to reveal a new durable toy inside.
