The best toys for Retrievers
1. Fetch toys
Whether Golden, Labrador, curly-coated or flat coated, your retriever will go bananas for the chance to retrieve a toy they can comfortably carry in their mouths with pride!
But, that’s not the only reason our fetch toys are in our top three picks of the best toys for retrievers.
Our PowerBall toys are perfectly weighted for throwing and fetching - but they also have an enticing fluffy bite area for satisfying tug games. Plus, our comfortable bungee handle means you and your goldie, labrador or other retriever can safely enjoy hours of super-rewarding tugging fun.
2. BOB - The water toy for dogs that floats, fetches & tugs
Historically, gundogs like retrievers were used to sniff out and retrieve birds and game - which might explain why so many retrievers love water play.
BOB comes in three bright colourways so it's easy for your dog to find and retrieve - and it floats without absorbing water. It's also made from squidgy natural rubber so it's soft in your dog's mouth and won't splinter like a stick.
The durable bungee handle means you can keep a good grip and avoid neck or shoulder strain when playing tug. The only tricky part is deciding which colour combination you like best!
3. The Clam (treat dispensing dog ball)
You don’t need us to tell you that one of the things your retriever loves most of all is treats! The Clam combines your Retrievers two biggest loves - food and play - to create a toy your dog will be obsessed with.
The Clam is a really versatile toy that you can use to play fetch, sniffing games, or even to train skills like an emergency stop or to stop your dog jumping up.
This boredom busting dog toy is also fantastic way to provide mental stimulation through brain games and scentwork games.
It’s also a great tool for enriching play. Fill it with treats and throw it as far as you can - your retriever will love sniffing it out, bringing it back to you and then getting to snaffle up the treats. Winner!
