Bionic dog toys
Bionic is a range of hard-wearing rubber dog toys, built around a honeycomb structure that is meant to survive strong, determined chewers rather than fall apart in the first session. We stock a selection from the range, from solid chew shapes to treat-stuffable toys, alongside the softer plush and rope toys that suit gentler chewers.
What the range is built for
The honeycomb rubber Bionic uses is denser and springier than a standard rubber ball, which is the whole point of the range: it gives a dog something genuinely resistant to bite through rather than a toy that looks tough on the shelf and does not survive a determined chewer. The Bionic Bone and Bionic Ball are the simplest expression of that, solid chew shapes with nothing to remove or swallow.
Several toys in the range go further than a plain chew shape. The Bionic Stuffer has a cavity built for packing with something tasty and freezing, which turns a few minutes of chewing into a slower, more absorbing activity, and the Toss-N-Tug Ring and Toss-N-Tug Turbo are built with a handle end for a game of tug as well as solo chewing. That range of shapes is worth matching to how your dog actually plays rather than picking on toughness alone.
Who it suits, and the one thing to watch
This is a range for dogs who chew hard and go through softer toys quickly, rather than dogs who mainly like to carry a toy around or shake it. If your dog is a determined chewer and has previously destroyed plush or rope toys within a session, a Bionic shape is a more sensible starting point than another soft toy.
No chew toy is genuinely indestructible, whatever the marketing on any brand says, so supervise a new toy the first few times and check it periodically for cracks or chunks missing, the same as you would with any chew. Size matters too: pick a size the toy suits your dog's mouth rather than the smallest or cheapest option, since an undersized chew is more of a choking risk for a large, strong-jawed dog.

Common questions
- Are Bionic dog toys actually indestructible?
- No toy genuinely is, whatever a range's marketing implies, but Bionic's honeycomb rubber is built to be significantly more resistant to strong chewing than a standard rubber toy. Check any chew toy periodically for cracks, splits or missing chunks and replace it once you see damage, regardless of the brand.
- Can you freeze a Bionic toy with food inside?
- Yes, the Bionic Stuffer is specifically designed with a cavity for packing and freezing, which is a good way to turn a normal treat into a longer, slower activity. Use something your dog already eats safely rather than a new food, and always supervise the first few sessions with any stuffed or frozen toy.
- What size Bionic toy should I get for my dog?
- Choose a size that suits your dog's mouth and jaw strength rather than the smallest one on the shelf, since an undersized chew toy is more of a choking risk for a large or powerful chewer. If you are unsure between two sizes, the larger of the two is generally the safer choice.
- Does Giddy Pets stock the whole Bionic range?
- No, we stock a selection from the range rather than every shape Bionic makes. What appears in the grid above reflects what we currently have available to order, and that can change as stock does.
