These will tire your pup out, so maaayybeee you'll have time to get some of your own stuff done.
1. A knot tug that comes in an extra-large and colossal size if your doggy loves a game of tug-of-war and they've destroyed pretty much all of their other toys.
Chewy
Promising review:"I got this rope for my pug puppy, who loves to tear everything up since he's teething, and what a win! This is now his favorite toy. Thick, great quality, and bigger than expected." — Pugcellentmommy
2. A volcano and dinosaur hide-and-seek toy your pup will have so much fun taking apart. Plus, it's also a squeaky toy, so they will have the added bonus of auditory stimulation.
Chewy, Linda / Chewy
Promising review:"My dog loves these toys, and he was thrilled. He just kept pulling out dinosaur after dinosaur! Six of them, and all of them decently sized. This really is a great value, and the toys are very well made and adorable." — Taylor
Price: $14.99
3. A baseball stadium hide-and-seek toy so your doggy can practice their detective skills. Hide the balls around the yard and watch your furry bestie track them down and bring them back.
Chewy
Promising review:"My dogs have enjoyed all of their Frisco toys, and this one has been especially fun. Love that the baseballs can be hidden for hide and seek but also roll for a good game of fetch. Seeing him leap and twist in the air to catch the baseball with his mouth has been so much fun! Once they chew it to pieces, I will definitely rebuy it if it's still available." — Chewy Reviewer
4. A refillable dog treat dispenser toy you can fill with homemade snacks or premade Pupsicle Pops because this will keep your doggo occupied while you sit through your Zoom meetings.
Chewy
Promising review:"Our Lab mix has always suffered from anxiety, fear, aggression with strangers, and breaks in routine. We ordered this product after seeing several ads on our social media. He LOVES it, and so do we! Super easy to clean and refill, long-lasting, and the treat refills don't smell bad like other dog treats! Our sweet boy recently began to lose mobility in his rear end and gets super upset when he is unable to get around independently; this gives him the comfort he needs to just relax and lie down while enjoying a treat!" — Elizabeth
5. An engaging jumbler ball if your dog has seemingly endless energy (but you don't). This will surely tire him out and give you a second to just ~chill out.~
Chewy
Promising review:"Toy is entertaining, nice squeaker. Our German shepherd plays with this for hours. The toy is challenging to pick up and carry. All of which helps our high energy German shepherd burn off energy." — Tracy
6. A sliding sushi-themed puzzle for the dog who is super restless and gets bored easily. This will keep them occupied long enough for you to maybe even get some work done of your own!
Chewy
7. A practically indestructible Kong chew toy you can fill with your dog's favorite treat so they can get all their energy out and enjoy a lil' snack at the same time.
Chewy
Promising review:"Being on the market like forever just might be the proof dog owners need to actually buy this toy. It comes in all dog sizes and has a lot of potential. For my rescue dog, it doesn't need to be stuffed with treats or peanut butter (too fattening). She loves it for the erratic bouncing action. A regular ball bores the heck out of her. Plus, she's exercising more muscle groups, trying to grab a hold of it. And the Kong is about as indestructible as they come. Buy it once and wait 'til the end of days before it wears out." — Stephen
8. A plush picnic basket with four stuffed toys, squeakers, and crinkles — how can your dog NOT love playing with this?!
Chewy
Promising review:"An immediate hit with my pup right out of the box, who's all about crinkly squeaky toys. Plus, the basket is durable enough to play tug with and will be a good place to stash some treats for her to sniff out. Incredibly noisy, but she's delighted, and this will easily keep her entertained while I'm at work." — Quinn
9. A rubber football treat dispenser that's bouncy, durable, and is sure to get you a touchdown for being the best dog parent in the whole world.
Chewy
Promising review: "We've had this toy for a couple of months now with no damage, which is a win in my book! It's very easy to push treats of many different sizes into it but fairly difficult for the dogs to get out, which is always the goal here. Definitely recommend." – Blix
10. A pet toy duo that includes a Goofy tug toy and a Pluto squeaky bottle toy, if you're a Disney adult and you want your puppy to join in on the magic.

11. And a Toy Story aliens rope toy so your dog can feel like "The Claw" from the movie. And look how freaking CUTE these little guys are!
Chewy, Laura / Chewy
12. A hide-and-seek hedgehog puzzle with three squeaky plushies your pup will have so much fun digging in to get the little furry pals to come out of their den.
Promising review: "This has become the new favorite for my 3-year-old Chihuahua. This is our first experience with a puzzle so I was not sure what to expect. Not only did he immediately figure out how to pull the animals out of the den and love it, but he also loved to play with the soft, squeaky animals separately. The price and quality are great. Just one recommendation: order extra hedgehogs if you have a killer like mine." — Finn
13. A large and tough treat-dispensing chew ball if you may spoil your pup a little too much by giving them treats constantly. With this, they'll have to actually work to get to the treats! (Also, I just have to say there is no such thing as spoiling your dog too much).
LoveLabradors / Chewy
Promising review:"We use this every day (sometimes two times a day) to feed our 10-month-old puppy his breakfast. It takes him about 30 minutes to eat 1 cup of kibble from it as we did not trim anything in the holes to make it easier. He loves his 'breakfast ball' and it works great as a slow feeder/mental stimulation/keeps him occupied while we get ready. Such a great toy!!!" — Gus
14. A scientist-themed strategy game if you feel like your doggy is secretly an evil genius, and they could use a little extra stimulation so they can work through all their evil plans.
Chewy
Promising review:"I have dogs who are not interested in toys, and they need something to stimulate their little brains! I bought this thinking it would be a good game for them. I just got it so they are still figuring it out (which is good, not too easy). I like that it came with suggestions on how to encourage your dog to learn it, and there are different lids, so once he figures out how to turn the cylinder over, that is not the end of the learning options. It didn't cost a lot, and I think they will benefit from using it (plus it is fun to watch them try to figure it out)." — Heather
15. A Wobble Wag Giggle ball made of durable pet-safe vinyl that makes super weird noises that, yes, can be extremely annoying, but your pup will loooove it. This is great to leave for your dog when you're out for the day so they don't get bored (and you don't have to be annoyed by the noises).
Chewy
Promising review:"My husky loves this toy. It's become his favorite. He sometimes gets frustrated when the kids aren't around, so he takes out his emotions on it, or when he's happy to see someone, he'll bring the toy. I play fight with him, and he loves it. He has stopped digging the yard also since this will keep him entertained. He is unable to break the toy, but he can grab it. I'd say it's for big dogs." — Chewy reviewer
16. A level-two difficulty Hide N Slide puzzle perfect for the pup who has little to no experience with puzzles. This is a great way to introduce your dog to the world of puzzling!
Chewy
Promising review:"Love this! You put either kibble or bits of treats in the holes and slide over the cover. It gives my dog a challenge to find and eat the treat, and it takes her a bit of time to get all the holes emptied, yet it is very doable for them to figure it out. They move the slider cover with their nose, and I like the stimulation it gives them." — Nora
17. A roller dog toy perfect for some indoor activity. It's soft, so you can play fetch with your dog inside without worrying about accidentally breaking anything.
Chewy, Katie / Chewy
18. A set of plush toys featuring all your favorite fast food staples because even though your dog really shouldn't eat fast food, they can still play with it, right?
Chewy
Promising review:"Perfect Christmas gift for my 8-year-old boxer/pit mix (his FAVORITE food is a burger). He took each toy carefully out of the box, and carried them around, and hid them in his bed. Very good quality and soft for his mouth. I was so happy to find these for him!!" — CatLady
19. A West Paw chew toy made of a special nontoxic Zogoflex material — that is BPA-, phthalate-, and latex-free — your dog will love chewing on, and that won't damage their teeth like some plastic chew toys might.
Shegro / Chewy, Catt / Chewy
Promising review:"I have five dogs. One is a pit mix who destroys all chew toys in the house and has broken teeth on toys that were too hard (more money spent at the vet). My others don't get their chewing needs met because other toys are either destroyed so quickly or removed to protect my busy pit, but THESE toys last months. They are not so hard to hurt my strong chewer's teeth, and all my dogs love them! My pups stay occupied for hours on end with these. I ordered five large and my home became the happiest home on the planet. Definitely worth the money. Also, both Chewy and West Paw have such EXCELLENT customer service that you can't go wrong. Thank you, Chewy!" — Sharls
20. A flavored tooth-cleaning chew toy if your dog has stinky breath and you want to trick them into taking care of their own teeth so you don't have to brush them yourself.
Chewy, AbbyP / Chewy
Promising review:"My dog has been chewing on the Hartz dog bones that are bacon flavored for the last five years and has perfect teeth. Stopped her from chewing on my shoes when she was younger, too. Still keeps her busy at 7 years old. :) " — Glucas1211
21. A puppy tire that'll get your furry pal tired as they attempt to get the treats out of the built-in treat dispenser — or from the long walks you're taking them on!

Hulk Hogan's first wife shares throwback post on wrestler's birthday. Take a look

They may have been divorced since 2009, but Linda Hogan's feelings still run deep for Hulk Hogan, who died of a heart attack in his Clearwater, Fla., home on July 24. On Monday, on what would have the wrestling icon's 72nd birthday, his ex-wife shared a sweet tribute on Instagram. 'Me and Hulkster 1981....I love and miss you so much,' said the caption alongside a throwback picture of the two embracing into the reflection of a mirror. Linda (nee Claridge) married the WWE legend (real name Terry Bollea) roughly two years after that snap was taken. They had two kids, Brooke, 37, and Nick, 35, who were also costars of the VH1 reality show 'Hogan Knows Best,' documenting their often wacky lives. Hulk and Linda separated the same year the show was canceled, 2007. Their divorce finalized in 2009. Hulk went on to marry makeup artist Jennifer McDaniel a year later, and split after a little more than a decade. The Real American Beer founder was married to yoga instructor Sky Daily, whom he wed in 2023, at the time of his passing. As for Hogan's relationship with his first wife? Not much was known about their dynamic until a few months ago. In the spring, Linda appeared in a disturbing social media video lifting the lid on the dysfunction in the family. The erstwhile TV matriarch tearfully revealed that she had been estranged from Brooke for years, and that her famous ex was not only a 'liar' and 'sex addict,' but also to blame for not healing the rifts. 'I've given him more opportunities to come back and make up the family,' the 65-year-old sobbed. 'It's been 20 years and I'm still this sad. Somebody please explain that.' After Brooke clapped back at her mom in her own posts, Hulk broke his silence in the form of a video of him jokingly eating popcorn with Daily. Linda obviously wasn't offended by the popular entertainer's lack of sympathy and had obviously forgiven him. After his death, she told her followers that she was 'devastated.' Linda has no hard feelings toward Daily, either. According to UsWeekly they sat in the same row during Hogan's funeral. READ MORE: Hulk Hogan's daughter has questions about his death

Anna Delvey breaks silence after dumped bunnies social media backlash

Anna Delvey is breaking her silence after being accused of dumping multiple rabbits used during a photoshoot in New York City. The "Dancing with the Stars" alum and convicted con artist took to her Instagram Story on Aug. 11 to address now-viral claims that she left two rabbits that were found abandoned in Brooklyn's Prospect Park. The backlash follows Delvey posting a photo carousel with the pair of bunnies and a companion video last week on social media. Delvey explained that a person named Christian Batty, who she described as a "member of the hair team I briefly met" during fashion week last year, had said he "knew someone who could lend us bunnies for a few hours." "I later discovered that, instead of borrowing animals from a legitimate source like (Batty) claimed, he had obtained them via Facebook Marketplace and intended to release them into Prospect Park," Delvey wrote in a lengthy note to fans. "(It was) a plan of which I had no knowledge," Delvey continued. "The idea that someone would compromise the well-being of innocent animals for personal networking opportunities is deeply disturbing to me." In an Aug. 12 statement to USA TODAY, Delvey said that "I'm appalled, and frankly terrified, by the violent threats and hundreds of vile, harassing messages flooding my social media." "I've provided overwhelming proof of my innocence, yet nothing seems to satisfy the performatively outraged masses whose only real aim is to churn hate in my comments and DMs," Delvey added. USA TODAY also reached out to reps for Jasper Egan Soloff, a photographer who worked on the shoot. According to People and The New York Times, Batty released statements on since-deleted social media pages addressing the incident and saying "I felt overwhelmed and made the worst possible choice." 'Dancing With the Stars' Anna Delvey elimination episode received historic fan votes Delvey (aka Anna Sorokin) is the real-life subject of the Netflix series "Inventing Anna" from Shonda Rhimes and served a prison sentence for swindling banks, hotels, and rich friends with a false reputation as a wealthy German heiress. Delvey said on Instagram that she was "appalled by what transpired," adding that "it's not my job to source or return animals" as talent. "But as an animal lover, I can promise I will never work with them again without knowing exactly where they came from and how they're getting home," she added. "I do not eat meat, and I had no involvement in the acquisition, transport or return of these animals. I would never condone these actions." After Delvey posted the photoshoot on social media, vegan influencer Terry Chao said in a post that she noticed that the bunnies from the photo were the same ones she had helped with two neighbors after she saw that there were lost bunnies found in the New York City park in a local Facebook group. "Animals are not props, they are beautiful, living things that we need to honor and cherish," Chao added.

Anna Sorokin says she received hundreds of death threats over bunnies abandoned in Brooklyn park

Anna "Delvey" Sorokin says she's received hundreds of death threats in the days since was was accused of dumping pet rabbits she posed with for a photoshoot in a Brooklyn park. The fake German heiress who stole tens of thousands of dollars from banks posed alongside three bunnies on the streets of Manhattan's posh Tribeca neighborhood last week. The bunnies were recognized and discovered in Brooklyn's Prospect Park days later, prompting fierce online backlash. But the headline-making New York City socialite — who vehemently denied responsibility for the discarded bunnies — said in an interview with NBC News that she's particularly shocked by the strong reaction over the incident. 'It just seems to me like everything I do is just wrong," Sorokin, 34, said in a phone call with NBC News. "I can never do right by these people.' Sorokin shared screenshots of dozens of hateful messages she's received within the last few days to her Instagram — which she called "unusable" — with NBC News. Some of them suggest that she she should be killed or take her own life, including one that advises Sorokin to get someone to "make a carpet out of your skin." 'It seems like a lot of these people, just because they're engaged in animal rescue, they feel like they're entitled to insult you or talk to you or say anything because they're hiding behind this thing that they're doing,' she said. The 34-year-old, whose life was depicted in Netflix's hit 2022 series "Inventing Anna," took the photoshoot with the bunnies on August 3 to create content for her Instagram account, which has more than 1.1 million followers. Shortly before the shoot, she posted on Instagram story asking if any of her followers in the New York City metropolitan area had a pet rabbit she could borrow for the shoot, Sorokin said. Christian Batty, a 19-year-old hair stylist Sorokin met briefly last year, reached out to her and offered what he described as a friend's rabbits, she said. Sorokin added that she paid Batty to provide the rabbits and for his Uber to return the rabbits to their owner in Yonkers — or so she thought. A screenshot of the Uber receipt Sorokin shared with NBC News show the ride's drop off location was just south of Prospect Park, where the rabbits were later spotted. Days later, she said she started receiving messages on social media about the rabbits being spotted in Prospect Park. A Facebook user posted images of the domesticated bunnies in the park to a public Facebook group dedicated to rabbits, House Rabbit Society, and other users connected them to Sorokin's photos. Sorokin initially thought the posts were fake, but the flood of messages did not stop. At first, Batty denied dumping the rabbits in the park, according to screenshots of text messages between Sorokin, Batty and photographer Jasper Soloff that Sorokin posted on her Instagram story and shared with NBC News. "Jasper had no knowledge or input as to how the bunnies were obtained or what happened to them after the photo shoot," Soloff's attorney, Gary Adelman, said in a statement. Batty did not immediately return a request for comment. Hours later, Batty confessed that he did dump the rabbits and absolved Sorokin of any involvement, according to a statement he posted to his Instagram account, which has since been taken down. "When I realized the rabbits were being surrendered to me, I panicked," Batty said in the statement, screenshots of which were provided by Sorokin. "At 19, with no experience caring for animals, no pet-friendly housing, and no knowledge of available resources, I felt overwhelmed and made the worst possible choice." "Believing, mistakenly, that there were existing rabbits in that area, I released them there, thinking that was my best option," he added. Sorokin pushed back on the notion that Batty's age was an issue. "He's old enough to move to New York and live on his own, he should have enough common sense to handle rabbits," Sorokin said. "We're not like asking him to do anything that requires high IQ from him. I just don't know what to say." Sorokin said that she was concerned about how the incident might affect her pending immigration case. Sorokin was convicted by a Manhattan jury in April 2019 on four counts of theft services, three counts of grand larceny and one count of attempted grand larceny after being accused of defrauding banks and friends of tens of thousands of dollars. Prosecutors said that Sorokin convinced friends and businesses to loan her money to afford a lavish lifestyle under the guise that she was the daughter of a oil baron or diplomat, worth tens of millions of dollars. In 2021, Sorokin was released on parole while she fights deportation. She has been forced to wear an electronic ankle monitor and cannot leave a 75-mile house arrest radius based in New York. "This time, I've done nothing wrong," she said. "And I had the best intentions and it's really frustrating." The New York Times reported that the rabbits were rescued by blogger Terry Chao, who spotted the rabbits in the park. Chao could not immediately be reached for comment. Sorokin said she donated $1,000 to the group All About Rabbits Rescue in the aftermath of the scandal. She also denied harming the rabbits by putting them in leashes, as some have suggested online. "I don't know, I'm not a bunny professional. I didn't know the leashes were such a big deal," she said. "We would put them down for, I don't know, a minute or two, take a picture and pick them up. We were not walking them by any means. And they seemed to be happy."
