Purrfectplay Natural Products for Pets (Giveaway) CLOSED

It’s about time Eli got in on the reviewing action in our family.  He has afterall been a family member longer than BJ.  And if any dog can determine if a product is durable, it is our 85 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback.  Purrfectplay is an online pet boutique shop that produces dye-free organic dog and cat toys.  Purrfectplay is dedicated to sustainable fair trade principles and therefore only uses organic, dye-free, and reclaimed materials in all of their products.  They also contribute to The Shirley Heinze Land Trust, a non-profit organizations that preserves and protects the unique ecosystems of the Indiana Dunes region (our home state). Not only does Purrfectplay care about the environment, they care about animals.  Five percent of each sale is given to no-kill and rescue animal organizations. This is company I can feel good about supporting!

So are the products durable enough to stand up to a 85 pound dog?  We were sent a Large Tug Toy, Super Jumbo Wool Ball, and the Large Leash Pouch for review.  Eli loves to play tug of war.  During the winter months we have gone through a lot of tug toys in order to keep him active (he loves to exercise and in the winter he doesn’t get out as much as he wants to).  I was a little concerned about the Large Tug Toy when I took it out of the package because I wasn’t sure if it would hold up to Eli’s rough play.  I was surprised at how durable it actually was.  We have played tug almost daily for the past two weeks and the Tug Toy looks almost as good as new!  The Tug Toy is made out of certified organic cotton scraps left over from an organic t-shirt company.  Each toy is hand braided and includes a tag made from old dog calendars, a true eco-friendly pet product.

Eli can destroy a tennis ball within 5 minutes if he really felt like it, so I was very interested in how the Super Jumbo Wool Ball would withstand Eli’s sharp teeth. Here is a little bit about Purrfectplay’s wool balls taken from their website:

Our organic wool comes from small family farms all over the U.S., but mainly from the Midwest where we live. It has taken us many months of experimentation to develop a wool ball which will be fun and durable. Our wool balls are hand formed from sustainably produced dye-free wool which has only been processed with gentle non-toxic soaps. Wool balls smell of sheep and meadow air, reminding your pets of the great outdoors.

Eli loves his wool ball.  He has not destroyed it to date, but it’s not for lack of trying.  I love how big the ball is.  It is hard to find large-sized balls for my large-sized dog.  Like I said earlier, he can destroy small balls within minutes wich is a waste of money.  Included with our wool ball was a washing bag. To clean your ball you simply put it in the bag and tie it shut.  After it has been washed you take it out and roll it in your hands and then air or machine dry it.  I love that you can wash these so easily.  This is the most durable dog ball I have had tried since Eli arrived into our family 4 years ago.

Lastly, we were given a Large Leash Pouch with a few BioBags to try out.  I love the Leash Pouch. I can’t count how many times we have gone on a walk and forgotten a grocery sack to pick up after Eli.  The Leash Pouch is made from reclaimed wool sweaters that would have been thrown away if not remade into these one of a kind pouches.  We have used leash poop bags before, but what makes Purrfectplay’s leash bags different is that it also includes a pocket that you can keep snacks, or keys, in as well.  You can attach the Leash Pouch onto the handle of your leash.  We will be attaching it to our stroller when we go for family walks (which unfortunately hasn’t been very often with all this snow we still have).

I love promoting eco-friendly products and stores and I am excited that our furry family members can benefit from “Going Green” as well as us humans can.  If you have a pet, please visit and purchase your next toy (or any of your pet needs) from Purrfectplay.
