As a Dog Trainer I’m very careful and cautious about dog food and toys. I ran across SodaPup and USA-K9 several years ago and I’m so glad I did! These toys last, can be chewed on, thrown for dogs that like to retrieve, those with anxiety, and those that need reward. I don’t use or recommend anything else!

Great until it no longer floated
Our German Shepherd LOVED this toy. We took it to the river by our house a few times. After about the third time, it stopped floating and our pup can no longer find it in the water. A little disappointed it didn’t last longer.
Thank you for the review Krystal. I'm a little perplexed as to how this toy could sink. It is filled with a closed cell foam with encapsulated air. Did your dog somehow pull the foam core out of it?

Hanks favorite toy from day 1
Every time I get my pup a new USA K-9 toy, it’s like a birthday celebration for him. Love it!
We're not a daycare or a kennel, we're just a big pack of strong dogs that like to chew!
This was my first time ordering the Box of 10 "Cosmetic Seconds" and I couldn't be happier. Cosmetic seconds? Little blips on perfection? Who cares! We don't. They were safe, appropriate chews for this pack, and available at a great value. We're all in.
I think the quality of the soda pup toys have gotten better over the years. I really like these flower pots and they are an excellent alternative to the westpaws fillable "cups"
I wasn't sure if my dogs would actually chew on this toy, but they do! They'll switch between this flat-shaped toy and their bones. It's very cute and has held up well, although my dogs are not super chewers so take that with a grain of salt.
I was a little skeptical since we haven’t tried these lick mats but heard a lot about them. Well! The Dobermans absolutely love them! The continuous licking action on these mats definitely helps to stimulate and tire their brains. Happy pups happy mom. The suction cups on the bottom of the mat definitely helps.
My dog has megasophagus and needs to eat her food slowly instead of gulping. Soda Pup provides bowls made in the U.S. with quality slow feeding bowls so I can feed her without worry. Thank you so much for providing a product that’s safe for my dog.
Amazing mixture of enrichment products and also great quality. Will definitely be purchasing another 20-pack for our kennel enrichment program or splitting them amongst friends!
The slower feeder bowl I purchased from Sodapup works really well and great fit for my Irish wolfhound puppy!!!! The bowl was discounted due to cosmetic issues but I cannot see a thing wrong with them! I bought 2!!!
From my perspective it was well made, heavy duty, easy to fill and clean.
From my dog's perspective he loved it. I made one and after he tried it he kept staring at the empty ones on the counter.
Super helpful for my dog’s physical therapy! He does water treadmill and acupuncture. The lick stick helps the topping last, and keeps him focused and calm. I like that I ended up using less product as the textured surface keeps the licks lasting.
My 9yo male Doberman loves this ball! He chomps on it and tosses it everywhere. The squeak does in fact give out, but it lasts way longer than anything else that has ever squeaked.

Hi Sara, we're thrilled to hear your dogs loved the chews! Thanks for sharing your experience and for choosing SodaPup. Happy chewing!

This Was great for keeping my pups cool on hot summer days.
This was great for melon mg my pups cool on hot sun her days. I blended some organic berries, a little plain organic yogurt, a drop of local honey and some filtered water, filled the pots up and froze them. It took them a good amount of time to lick their frozen pup pots. And it kept my pups nice and cool.
