" Hi, this Alise McMahon for Expert Village.com and in this video series we are talking about dog toys. If you would like to find out more about my services, you can visit my website at www.canineheadstart.com. So we are talking about different types of toys here and in this short video clip we are going to be talking about flying toys. Toys that you can fling out in the air and the dogs can go and chase. People love playing Frisbee, we love chucking things, picking them up and throwing them back and forth. Dogs enjoy it too. So I just want to give you an example of different types of toys that are great for flying, having your dog chase them. Here is a rather small one and it comes in various sizes and various colors. It is a fairly sturdy plastic, its soft enough that it is not going to hurt your dog. It is fairly flexible and it is a great thing to just fly across the lawn. It’s a nice shape, nice size and the dog can pick it up fairly easily. This is another type of flying toy. It’s a soft plush toy. It’s stuffed on the outside and its got cloth on the inside and it also has a squeaker on the inside so it is an added benefit for the dog. Dog again, dogs love things that squeak. Another kind of plush flying toy is chuckamonkey. You can find Chuckamonkey or Chuckaduck. This has a plush monkey on the inside, a squeaker, a rattle and then the rope toy. This toy is great for the dogs to hold onto to retrieve for you and a lot of fun to be playing with the dog in the backyard with the Chuckamonkey. Another type of flying toy is a soft, softer than this hard rubber, is a soft latex rubber. It’s got a fairly significant squeaker in it and you can throw that for the dog and again, it is soft enough, it’s viable enough, the dogs really enjoy chewing on it when they are bringing it back, they can throw it up in the air by themselves, they can catch it and it’s not going to hurt them. This is a great toy for dogs to play with and this toy comes in different sizes and different colors as well. "
