Tough dog toys?

I'm looking for a bit more variety than a Kong, which Boris enjoys, but is getting a bit bored with. Trouble is, everything I buy he chews through in less than a minute. I only buy the toys labelled 'invincible', 'tough', 'lasts and lasts' etc but I'm afraid they're a goner in our house. I feel sorry for him when I work in the mornings that he hasn't got much to do but I just can't find anything as tough as the Kong. Any ideas anyone?

I bought my dog a treat ball, its plastic and you can put different size treats in and can adjust the size of the opening, she hasnt broken it yet put saying that she only 9 months old, she like the kongs as well and hasnt yet been able to destroy it.

Have you tried the boomer ball?
Great exercise and keeps them entertained.
Just make sure you get the correct size,as they are not meant to beable to pick it up.

The Boomer ball is great and with a Leo you would probably need the biggest one. They are incredibly noisy though when they clatter around the patio etc. as they are a hard plastic. Also you might have to show them how to use them, it didn't come naturally to Diesel my staffie but now he can't leave it alone. At first I did have to spend a while being a bit of a looney outside showing him how to use it though. It gets a big thumbs up from us though.

The boomer ball sounds great - I'm definitely going to give it a go. Presumably PAH sells it?

They do but our PAH never has the largest one in stock, you can get it online from companyofanimals.

Also you might want to try the toughest nylabones - they now have ones with rubber inbetween the hard plastic bits so that makes it a little more interesting for the dogs.
