FAQs
Is the Elkwood Wood Rope safe for my puppy?
While the toy is non-toxic, it is primarily intended for medium and large breeds; please supervise your puppy closely to ensure the size and weight are appropriate.
Can this toy be used in water?
It is best to keep the toy dry; prolonged exposure to water may affect the durability of the natural wood materials.
What should I do if my dog swallows a fiber?
If a large portion is ingested, contact your veterinarian immediately. Small loose fibers are generally handled by the digestive system, but monitor your pet for any changes in behavior.
How do I know when to replace the toy?
Replace the toy once the knots become significantly unraveled or the structural integrity of the wood rope is compromised.
Is the wood treated with any chemicals?
No, the Elkwood Wood Rope is chemical-free and non-toxic.
Troubleshooting
Dog loses interest in the toy
Try initiating an interactive game of tug-of-war to stimulate your dog's natural instincts.

Trim loose threads with scissors to prevent ingestion and continue monitoring the toy's structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required for the Elkwood Wood Rope Dog Toy; it is ready for use immediately upon removal from the packaging. It is best suited for medium and large breeds that possess the jaw strength to handle the rope's diameter and weight. To maintain the toy, inspect it periodically for signs of excessive wear. While it is designed to be splinter-free, heavy chewing will naturally degrade the rope fibers over time. Clean the toy by wiping it with a damp cloth and allowing it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid submerging the wooden components in water for extended periods to maintain material integrity.
