Rubber fetch & puzzle toy

The Gnawt-a-Rock™ is a durable toy inspired by natural volcanic obsidian formed by rapidly cooling lava from Pacific Northwest volcanoes.

Made with natural latex rubber and a faceted surface with an irregular shape, this interactive toy keeps your dog engaged, whether chasing after its erratic bounce or nosing it around as an interactive slow feeder puzzle toy to stimulate their mind.

Check out the Gnawt-a-Stick™ and Gnawt-a-Cone™ in our Gnawt-a-Toys Collection, inspired by the natural surroundings in Ruffwear’s home of Bend, Oregon.

Our toys are designed to be interactive – it's just more fun that way. While our toys suit a range of play styles, dogs can be crafty and determined chewers, so supervised play is recommended. If any part of the toy becomes loose or detached, take the toy away and discard.

Awesome sturdy dog toy

My dogs both love this extremely durable dog you, both with and without treats. Love the colour and its shape. Doesn't work so well with big treats, but great with smaller kibble.
