No toy is going to last forever. You just have to get the toughest ones and see which work the best. Mine have destroyed numerous ones including kong, rhino cone, galileo bone, double action chew, jolly ball, big chews and basically every other toy they've ever had.
I bought a Booda Quirkies which said virtually indestructible (which I think is supposed to mean will last a day at most) it is a rubber toy with this little noise maker inside. Anyway after about 10 mins of use there was already enough puncture marks. This was playing fetch with it, the dog just carried it back to me. After that they did get a little chewing in here and there but I was still taking it to throw even though they wanted to chew. So after about 20 mins of play with her there was several missing pieces and lots of holes.
I don't trust anything rubber to last that long, especially as soft as booda bone not as hard as kong, of course kong or rhino cone as well I will always watch them because I know dogs which have got blockages from swallowing the pieces from rubber toys and nearly died or did die.
I get the durable pooch pacifiers the very large, hard, white ones. They of course chew them up but they seem to really love them. My Cane Corso took a couple of hours and hers was totally tore up.
I give them toys knowing they will chew them up but try to pick what will last longer. Some of the best are tires. Even the smaller ones for a house toy. Not the type they make for dogs but the ones for real use, the dog ones are easily destroyed.

The one toy that has stood the test of his jaws is a Jolly Ball! It is sold as a ball toy for horses. My dog loves it! It cant deflate at all and it has a handle so we kick it or throw it for him and he is able to retrieve with the handle and bring it back for more fun. At about $20 it was the cheapest dog toy I've ever bought and has lasted for a few months already. |
SonnyWimps did mention Jolly Ball (which mine can destroy) but also said no toy is indestructible. My Pits are way worse then my Boerboel in the toy destruction department. So it really depends on the individual dog. Some will destroy certain toys where others won't even if they techinically could.
