Tuffy Dog Toys – Built for Dogs Who Play Hard

When it comes to durable dog toys, Tuffy® Dog Toys are in a class of their own. Designed for interactive play, these tough plush dog toys are made with multiple layers of material, heavy-duty stitching, and reinforced seams to stand up to the most determined pups. Whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or just some supervised roughhousing, Tuffy Dog Toys offer hours of safe, squeaky fun.

DogTuff proudly offers the largest selection of Tuffy toys for dogs, including all strength levels from the Tuff Scale, so you can find the perfect fit for your furry friend’s play style.

The Toughest Plush Dog Toy Around

Not all plush toys are created equal. Tuffy Dog Toys are built with multiple layers of tough, high-quality fabric to handle everything from light nibblers to enthusiastic tuggers.

Character and Ultimate Series Toys include:

  • 1 outer layer of soft fleece for comfort
  • 1–2 inner layers of industrial-grade luggage material
  • 1 plastic-coated layer to bind fibers, create a waterproof barrier, and improve floatability

Mega Series Toys can have up to 7 total layers, offering one of the toughest constructions on the market for plush dog toys.

These layers make every Tuffy toy both durable and functional, while remaining soft enough for safe indoor play.

SEWN MULTIPLE TIMES FOR STRENGTH

Tuffy toys don’t just rely on tough materials, they're reinforced with advanced stitching techniques to improve durability and extend playtime.

  • Up to 7 rows of stitching
  • Cross-stitched in two directions to bind multiple layers
  • Webbing sewn around edges for added reinforcement
  • When applicable, protective webbing is added and stitched up to 3 more times for even greater strength

This heavy-duty construction helps Tuffy toys outperform most plush alternatives, making them a favorite for dogs who love to tug, whip, or wrestle their toys.

SQUEAKER SAFETY BUILT IN

Love squeaky toys but worry about safety? Tuffy has you covered. Each squeaker is sewn into a secure inner pouch, adding an extra layer of protection. If your pup chews through the toy and reaches the squeaker, you’ll have time to safely remove it before anything is swallowed.

Toy Care

Even the toughest toys show wear over time. To keep your Tuffy toy in top shape:

  • Remove any loose threads promptly to prevent ingestion
  • Remove the toy immediately if your pet reaches the white stuffing core
  • Machine washable – use cold water and air dry only

Toy Safety Reminder:

Tuffy toys are built for interactive play, they are not chew toys. No toy is indestructible, and parts should never be ingested.

Please supervise your pet during play and inspect toys regularly. Responsible play is the key to safe fun!

Good idea

My 14 month old German shepherd had it tore apart in 2hours after buying it. I like the idea of tuff toys but they aren't durable enough. Last time I bought the duck and it took about 2hours and it was done.

cute but not tuff

My 15 mo old Siberian Husky tore through this in 2 weeks- lesson learned, we are sticking to 8 and higher on the durability scale
