Chew Toys for Puppies – For Security, Dental Health & Activation
Chew toys are one of the most useful tools to support your puppy's natural development. As your puppy's teeth come in, which usually starts at 3-4 weeks of age and continues until they are 6 months old, it's common for them to chew on anything they can get their hands on. This is when it's crucial to provide your puppy with safe and secure options. Instead of them chewing on furniture, shoes or your hands, you can offer approved, durable chew toys that are both soothing and entertaining.

Many puppies have difficulty dealing with silence and loneliness, especially during the first few weeks in a new home. A soft, textured chew toy can then act as a security object that alleviates anxiety.
There are many different types of chew toys to choose from. Some are made of natural rubber and have a knobby surface that massages the gums, others have built-in spouts or can be filled with treats to increase interest. Some can even be frozen – perfect during the most intense teething period. This gives the puppy a cooling effect while also teaching them what is okay to chew on.
Establishing the right chewing habits from the start makes a big difference in the long run. By showing your puppy which objects are allowed to chew on, you reduce the risk of future behavioral problems. At the same time, your puppy develops his jaw muscles, coordination and concentration. A chew toy is therefore not just a toy – it is a tool for both body and mind.
At Zoostar, we have carefully selected our chew toys. Our models are made from safe materials such as natural rubber, BPA-free plastics and durable textiles. Several of them have textured surfaces that stimulate the gums, and some can even be frozen for extra relief from teething pain. It's the small details that can make a big difference to both your puppy's well-being – and your interior.
Many puppies quickly develop favorite toys. That's why it's wise to offer a variety: a soft fabric variety for evening rest, a durable one for energetic playtime, and an interactive toy that also contains treats. This way, chewing becomes not only a relief – but also a reward.
Our most popular puppy toy options are those that combine different functions: chew, throw and tug in one. These create the joy of movement while building jaw muscles in a safe way. Explore our full selection of chew toys and give your puppy a better start.
