Summary

  • Hartwell Research released a U.S. report comparing seven durable dog toy brands, with Happy Staffy Co ranked top for Staffies and other strong chewers.
  • The study aims to help owners judge products beyond marketing claims by scoring material strength, safety standards, customer-reported durability, breed suitability, value, and replacement policies.
  • KONG, West Paw, Goughnuts, Benebone, Tuffy, and Chuckit! were also featured, each highlighted for a distinct use case such as enrichment, safety indicators, plush durability, or fetch play.
  • The report reflects rising demand for tougher, safer toys as owners of power-chewing dogs seek products that reduce breakage and the risk of loose or damaged pieces.
