All dogs have an instinctual drive to chew and feel accomplished when biting and tearing at something. They can also be chewing out of boredom or anxiety or trying to assert a lost sense of dominance. This is why choosing safe Yomp dog toys for them to chew on are essential! Channel their natural energy into encouraged activities like playing with toys. Compliment them for choosing dog toys to play with instead of your belongings and they will catch on fast! Treats help!

Every dog has their own preferences. Some dogs like bones, others like balls, some like chasing toys and frisbees. Your buddy will let you know what kind of toys they like. Present them with one option at a time and see how they respond! Yomp knows that there’s a toy out there for every playful pup.

Dog bone toys are completely different from edible dog bones, and should never be consumed. For safety, it’s important to keep in mind that no toy is indestructible, and even high quality bone toys could break down after extensive chewing. Inspect bone toys regularly, and if you see signs of wear, it’s time to recycle. (And, naturally, choose safe, nontoxic, plastic-free toys like Yomp to begin with!)

Nope. While allowing dogs to chew on actual animal bones can be dangerous, dog bone toys made of nontoxic materials like silicone are perfectly safe. Just remember that no toy is indestructible, so reasonable supervision is important. If you do see signs of “excess love” like surface breakdown or loose bits, it’s time to recycle.
