FAQs
What materials is the Eco Dog Toy made from?
It is made from braided jute rope, felt, and recycled plastic bottles, with a suede eye detail.
Is this toy suitable for aggressive chewers?
While designed to be tough, it may not withstand extremely aggressive chewing. It's best for dogs who enjoy interactive play and moderate chewing. Always supervise your dog during play.
How do I clean the toy?
You can spot clean the toy with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging it in water.
Is the jute rope safe if chewed?
Jute is a natural, biodegradable plant fiber and the toy is made without harmful compounds. However, ingestion of large amounts of any material should be avoided. Supervise play.
What does 'eco-friendly' mean in this context?
It means the toy uses natural, sustainable fibers (jute), recycled materials (plastic bottles), and by-product materials (suede), and is made without harmful chemicals.
Can I wash this toy in the washing machine?
No, the toy is not machine washable. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the recommended method for cleaning.
What happens when the toy wears out?
The jute is biodegradable, meaning it will break down naturally over time. If the toy becomes significantly damaged, it should be safely discarded.
Troubleshooting
Toy is fraying significantly
This is normal for jute rope with extensive use. Inspect for any loose ends that could be a choking hazard and consider replacing the toy if it's heavily damaged.
Dog is ingesting small pieces of jute
Supervise play closely and remove the toy if your dog starts to break off and ingest pieces. This toy is best suited for supervised interactive play rather than solo, unsupervised chewing.
Toy has become dirty
Gently spot clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry completely before returning to your dog.
