Pitbulls often have an unfair stigma attached to them. These types of dogs are inaccurately portrayed as aggressive and dangerous. However, the reality is Bully breeds can be playful, loving, and snuggly. They can even be silly and clown-like. The term “Pitbull” encompasses a handful of Bully breeds that include the American Bully, the American Staffordshire Terrier, and the American Pitbull Terrier. Some of these breeds’ favorite activities include tug games, fetch, chewing, and snuggling. Many Pitties, as they’re called, truly enjoy stuffed toys with squeakers and may have a few favorites. Here are some of the best toys for your Pitbull and Bully mixes to keep them healthy and happy.

Available in three sizes, the Kong Wubba is made with durable nylon. It’s a versatile toy that works for fetch and tug. Since many Pitties love to shake things around in their mouths, the shape of the Wubba is perfect thanks to its long tails.
