I shop at Petco for Simba quite often. I usually pop in to get some new dog treats or a new dog toy just because so we couldn’t wait to get Simba’s paws on some cool new dog toys! Simba likes all types of toys and I mean ALL types! He’ll even play with the little one’s toys if she will let him, but she’ll usually catch him in the act and take it away. She’s in that “mine” stage right now LOL.
We received two rope toys, traffic cone with rings, and a sumo wrestler! Simba liked every single one of them. I pretty much just put all of them on the floor and let him rip and run around and just have at it. Having all of these toys out at once was pretty much like Christmas in August for him. He really enjoyed himself.
Dog Rope Toys
When I put all of the toys pictured above on the floor, Simba dived for the cute little green rope toy first. I guess it just really caught his eye! He loved whipping it all around as he bounced from chair to chair in my living room. He also liked for me to hold it so he could tug away at it and try to get it away from me only for him to want to play tug-o-war with me again. He loved the other rope toy as well. He really liked how they both squeaked because he kept chewing in just the right spot to sound it off.
Sumo Wrestler Dog Toy
We have never had a sumo wrestler in our home before, but Simba welcomed him right on in. It’s a soft and nice sized toy with a squeaker inside. He loved to jump around with this toy too and even used it as his little snuggle buddy. When he’s not using it as a snuggle buddy he’s using it as a wrestling buddy and he wins every time!
Traffic Cone with Rings
The cone and ring toy was something different for us. We are in the process of teaching Simba how to do some simple tricks so we will be adding this to the list. This isn’t quite as simple though because he looks at it like “What am I supposed to do with these things? Chew on ’em? Knock the cone down?”
Ummmm, not quite Simby. We got him to hold it in his mouth for a little bit and with our help, put the ring on the cone. If he ever masters this then I’ll definitely post it to our YouTube channel! For now we will just stick with tossing the rings on the cone and he can get them off or he can just fetch the ring 🙂 Either way this is a fun and interactive toy for you and the dog!
I’d say the dog rope toys were his favorite and the ring and cone was his least favorite simply because he had no clue how he was supposed to play with it. He had fun with all of them and grabs them out of his toy box quite often.

My sister loves tug a war with rope toys but she is strong and the break often. I think I would like that ring thing…I am more into thinking than playing.

Those toys look like fun! I love soft toys, but frankly, I dont think I’d know what to do with the rings and cone either. Mom would have to teach me for 6 months!
Love and licks,

Cute toys Simba! Is that a shrimp on that rope toy? That is so cute! I think Shiner would probably shred all of those toys in like 5 minutes lol. I still haven’t found an indestructible toy for her. She’d still like to play with all of them though 🙂

I think I’d like to play with the rings. That fits my IQ and physical abilities. Wait, is this about dogs?
Can you update us on how well they hold up to tug-o-war and chewing?
Simba looks like a lot of fun. Great pic of him holding the ring.
Thanks_Jack

I am looking for the cone and rings but I can not find it anywhere. I have two dogs that can target a ring on a water bottle bit they keep knocking the bottle over. I need something better. Can you help me find it?
