Play and activity
In addition to their calming effect, cuddly toys are also an excellent way to keep your dog occupied. They stimulate your dog's natural hunting and playing behavior, promote mental activity and provide entertainment and company when you are not at home. At SABRO you will find soft and cuddly plush toys, large cuddly friends to lean on and more robust toys that are also suitable for numerous hours of play in the living room or garden.
High-quality toys from SABRO
At SABRO, we attach great importance to the quality of the materials used to protect your dog. Our range of toys is geared towards the special needs of different dogs. We use dog-compatible and allergy-friendly materials for production.
Without exception, all dog toys are designed so that no small parts can fall off that your dog could swallow. Nevertheless, we recommend that you regularly check the cuddly toys for damage and do not leave your dog to play unsupervised to ensure his safety. Depending on the intensity of the play, a toy can also break. Check your dog's cuddly toy regularly for defects. If you find one, replace the toy to avoid the risk of injury.
When does your dog need toys?
Once you have decided on a puppy, you can gradually give him toys and cuddly toys to cuddle from around six months of age. We recommend that you don't just put the toy down, no matter how old he is. Show him what he can do with it and encourage him to play actively. Tip: Keep an eye on your dog as you do this to find out what he likes and doesn't like.
If your puppy won't touch the new toy, give it some time. This doesn't necessarily mean that he doesn't like it, perhaps it's still too early for your four-legged friend.

How to properly care for and clean your dog's cuddly toy
As dogs use their cuddly toys often and intensively, they should be cleaned regularly. Here are some care tips:
- Regular washing: Plush toys can quickly collect dirt and bacteria, so they should be washed regularly. To make cleaning easier for you, all SABRO toys are easily machine washable. Be careful not to use aggressive detergents or strong spin cycles to protect the soft materials.
- Drying:After washing, the cuddly toys should dry completely to retain their shape and softness. This can be done by air drying, for example, but some SABRO toys can even be tumble dried. Please proceed with caution and follow the relevant product instructions.
- Check for damage: Dog toys of any kind should be checked regularly for damage or loose seams. If necessary, minor seams can be repaired with a needle and thread to ensure that no filling comes out that your dog could swallow.
These care measures keep the cuddly toy clean and safe for your dog.
What you should consider when buying a cuddly toy for your dog
Before you choose a cuddly toy for your dog, you should consider the following points:

- Easy care: Make sure that the cuddly toy is easy to clean. SABRO cuddly toys are machine washable and retain their shape and color even after many washes.

What you can use the cuddly toys for with your dog
Cuddly toys for dogs are very versatile. We'll tell you how you can use them perfectly:
- Company and security: Soft toys give your dog a feeling of security and company when his humans are not around. This promotes relaxation and a sense of security for your dog.
- Training: If your dog likes to play with the soft plush toys, you can use them for training - for example for fetching.
- Reward: The cuddly toy can also be used as a reward, for example as a substitute for treats. When your dog does something right, reward him by giving him the cuddly toy and playing with him.
Tip: Don't give your dog permanent access to his toy. Use it deliberately during training or give it to him when no one has time for him. If your pet has access to its toy at all times, it will eventually get bored and the effect will be lost.
