odd looking but amazing dog toys

i have started to notice a strange trend with romeos dog toys.
at the helsinki dog show i brought this for romeo, its a kong safestick for throwing ( he loves to play fetch), it wasnt until i showed some friends that they screwed up their faces and questioned what it 'actually' was



I'll admit... it looks a bit... suspisious. but romeo likes it haahaha.


they also think these other things i have for romeo are a bit weird
but they are the BEST chewing toys i have ever brought for romeo, they are almost indestructable. these are great toys i must say, the meterial is non-toxic and great for chewing. and i recomend anyone with a power chewer like romeo to get them
the brands are ORKA and KONG




and every staffie owner has one of these.

now now dont lower the tone

Bag ahaha but we were all thinking it.


Been to many Ann summers parties Steve?

When at Pets At Home, my mum said I should get one of the Safestix, and I was like "NO," I just couldn't . I have a weird dog, Loki doesn't chew his Kong at all, he just eats from it, so I guess the chewing toys wouldn't do anything.

Bailey has one of those Safestix! If I'm taking it to the field it's hidden in my track suit pocket

i know... i'm like... while its fun to play in the house with it... how... HOW am i going to go out side and throw that X'D

i know what you female are like i have a sister & got plenty of cousins

Don't know what you mean

Lol gutter minds !

Ledger loved his safestix til he figured that by biting specifically on one of the twists he could then pull it apart in pieces. We did get some strange looks as he would insist on carrying it by one end but it was the first non ball toy he really wanted to play with and they do throw really well

its also much nicer then an actual stick.... but ...yeaaaah... a little awkward..

Rocky has about 4 Kongs of varying sizes some for his food and some for treats. I have seen the Kong sticks before and I think they are a very good idea. Much better than having some very nasty mouth injuries by using a real stick.

I have a toy stick that looks like a normal stick and not something...else so I'll stick with that.

Its only disgusting if you understand the innuendoes and if you do you also are a little dirtay

Yeah I saw one of these in one of the dogs kennels in work and was like "WTF have the volunteers been putting in the kennels?!!! "

HAHAHAH.... when my friends come over and see romeo's toys onthe ground they give me the wide eye with the raised brow.
i should mess with them.. "didnt have time to pack up from last night"

romeo has the blue one.... it looked the least sus

Why don't they make them stick shaped. That would be cuuute!

the 'balls' on the end are supposed to stop it ever getting stuck in the ground like in freak accidents

But my stick would look just like a big sticky log. it can have rounded ends if thats what people want. it will be like a sausage stick.

sounds lovely

Omg so glad am not the only one that thinks the safestix are slightly dodgy looking! I said that to my oh in pets at home and he tutted said i was just overly dirty minded!!!

I got a kong safe stick for Dempsey & although it looks a bit, um, weird, it has lasted!

Dempsey has destroyed all of these.

Hi all,

Are these expensive? They look like a good idea. Ive got a couple of the kong things for putting food in and theyre great. Tea spoon of peanut butter in there and Rosie is occupied for hours

They are a suggestive shape though lol. but they look very durable.

I bought the green one for Obi and he loves it. It never crossed my mind till I took him out a few weeks ago with my friend and her daughter and the pair of them starting laughing. I had to ask what they found so funny

Now i've been informed the stix hasn't left the house. No wonder people were giving me strange looks round the local park

... Nice...

I must admit that it doesn't bother me in the least - Dempsey loves his & I throw it for him in the park & he'll carry it around. I get some funny looks, but that stopped bothering me years ago!

memphis disposed of his orka ball in about 30 seconds
but iv got one of the sticks for him at christmas

Romeo's Orka Jack is still alive, i guess romeo is a little more caring the everyone else about it toys.
i took him out lats night with the um... sticl. it was late at night so i was safe
But he went CRAZZZY over it. he was that i was carrying it and he couldnt walk straight he kept turning and walkiing around me all excited. when we found a clearing i threw it for him and he went nuts. he was racing around and shaking it all over the place. i think he likes the fact that it bends and flexes. at the end of it he wouldnt give it back and i had to let him walk home with it in his mouth.... no one saw us

hahah power chewer dempsey.
ah see i'm lucky Caryll, the worst romeo has done to them is pull all the ropes out of his orka stick

, will buy the pink one for Pixee for Christmas without telling my hubby and son, cant wait to see their faces

hahhahahah naughty you Lynn!

iv just bought mempises one for Christmas
i got a green one hope its not infected

hahah oh dear, new term to green eggs and ham huh
