AT PLAY: Protect your poochie from toxins and chemicals.
Fido gets enough chemicals in him while he frolics in pesticide-ridden lawns and parks — no need to let him chew on toxic toys during playtime. Try Wrapables' organic plush dog toys, made from non-toxic, organic fabrics. "Lolly the lamb," "Oscar the Monkey," "Wally the Bear," and "Lucy the Rabbit," are all dyed with natural extracts from plants and minerals. They're also saliva resistant and as soft as Fido's silky ears. The toys come with removable squeakers, in case things get too loud and rambunctious. We'd recommend these for smaller, gentler dogs — a lab or a golden could probably tear them right to shreds. $16.95 a piece.
