Pet owners know that their dog isn't only unique based on their breed, but they also have unique personalities — just like their owners do. Dogs of different ages and sizes have special needs that should be met during playtime, and their dog toys should really reflect this. For example, a larger dog that loves to grab huge sticks and chew on them afterward, would benefit from this West Paw Hurley Dog Bone, which allows them the same type of activity without having to worry about splinters or accidently swallowing parts of the wood of the stick.
