We love a good dog toy. And Target shoppers absolutely love this Bark Howly Jowly Holidays Tannen Bob Ball Plush Dog Toy. The first thing to know about this dog toy is that it’s actually two toys in one. The toy comes with a plush, soft, stuffed toy with crinkle for sound and texture and a spiky squeaker ball. And it’s holiday-themed, with the main stuffed part being a Christmas tree. It’s excellent for dogs of all ages, and ideal for dogs in the extra-small to medium size range.
Dogs and dog parents seem to absolutely love this holiday-themed dog toy. “My dog loved this, Bar, Holiday, Tannen Bob. The krinkle made her play from about 2 pm to 11 pm when she destroyed him. The spiky rubber squeaky ball is still fine, but she took one chomp on it and let it go. I wish he were more durable and lasted longer, or I would’ve given him more stars. She really has fun with him,” one Target shopper said about this holiday-themed dog toy.

“My dog loved the toy! She’s a big chewer and loves destroying things, so I’m sure it’s only a matter of time until she opens it up. But I like how it has a silicon part attached for a different texture. Overall, I’d recommend this!” another Target shopper said about the dog toy.

There are definitely a few things to consider when shopping for a dog toy for your fluff baby. First, consider the toy’s durability, especially if you have a larger dog or a strong chewer. If you know your fur baby is a strong chewer and goes through toys quickly, look for toys made with strong materials like nylon or rubber. Next, consider your dog’s safety. Make sure a dog toy doesn’t contain any toxic materials and that there are no small parts that can be chewed off or swallowed.
Next, consider the mental stimulation and chewing satisfaction your dog could get from the toy. Good toys for mental stimulation include those that dispense treats when dogs complete certain activities. Other examples are hide-and-seek and foraging-type toys. Puzzle toys are another good option for mental stimulation.
