Eco-Friendly Pet Toys

They offer you unconditional love, don’t your pets deserve the best? By shopping wisely, you can treat your pets and feel comfortable that your purchases — from the bed to the toys you give them — don’t harm the environment or your furry friends. When you’re looking for green pet toys and products, consider these companies, which use renewable or recycled materials in their products.

Simply Fido

Simply Fido produces its toys using recycled polyester and all natural cotton, which is grown without the use of harmful pesticides. Additionally, by using nontoxic, low-impact dyes, the dye process for their toys uses less water and produces less contamination. Offering eco-friendly plush, rope, and rubber toys for dogs, and scratching posts for cats, Simply Fido offers a wide range of pet-friendly options. Have a tug-of-war with your dog and enjoy the sunny afternoon naturally.

Having pledged to produce sustainable and quality dog products, West Paw aims to use the most sustainable practices available.
