Make sure you select the stuffed animal size that is appropriate for your child’s hands or bedroom space. Consider whether your child would prefer a smaller cuddly friend or something bigger to hug them at night. Larger-sized stuffed animals can also be difficult to store, so take the storage area you have available into consideration. Go for comfort An active toy will encourage movement in your puppy, helping them burn off excess energy. In turn, this can reduce anxiety levels and prevent destructive behaviours in the home. Rope toys designed for a tug-of-war can be another fun way to play with your pup. But if your puppy starts showing any aggression, this may not be the best game for them. Distraction Toys Examples of the best puppy toys for mental stimulation include a treat dispenser like a KONG or an interactive puzzle. Some puppies will benefit from distraction toys, but others may feel frustrated and anxious when they can’t get to the goodies. You may need to help your puppy figure out how their new toy works. Comfort ToysChildren’s soft toys. Not designed to stand up to a puppy’s teeth and the stuffing may become exposed

It’s important to choose a pet-safe stuffed toy, which will be much more durable than a children’s toy. Your puppy could rip a children’s toy and swallow the stuffing if they get too enthusiastic. It’s totally normal for puppies to chew as they go through the teething process. A teething toy will allow your pup to express that natural behaviour without destroying your furniture. Be careful with comfort toys, though. If you only give your puppy the toy before you leave the house, they may start associating their stuffed animal with anxiety caused by being alone. Proper crate training can help some puppies feel less stressed and keep them safe when you can’t supervise them. Teething ToysWe only chose stuffed animals that were super soft to the touch.

Look for a toy that has an inviting shape, texture, and weight so it feels comforting in your child’s hands.
