Coolpet
Coolpet is a small, straightforward toy brand rather than a big multi-category name — the sort of maker that puts its effort into one or two well-built toys rather than a sprawling catalogue. On our shelves that means a specific, limited slice of the range, not a wall of variations.
What we actually stock
The Coolpet Koala with TPR Ring is the item we carry — a soft toy body built around a rubber ring, which gives a dog something to properly grip and pull rather than just something to squeak. It sits in our dog-toys range alongside similar hybrid designs from other makers.
We are being straightforward here rather than padding this out: this is a small, specific range on our site today, not a wide Coolpet catalogue. If that changes we will update this page rather than leave it implying more than we stock.
Who it suits
A dog that likes a mix of soft toy and something sturdier to pull makes the most sense of this design — it gives a bit more to grip than a plain plush toy without being a full rope or rubber chew.
It is not the toy to reach for with the most determined chewers, who will find the soft outer material the weak point soon enough. For that dog, a proper rubber or rope toy from elsewhere in our range will last longer.
Looking after a Coolpet toy
Rinse the toy under a cold tap after a muddy walk or a session in the garden rather than putting it through a washing machine, since a machine wash breaks down the stitching around the rubber ring faster than hand-rinsing does. Leave it to dry fully before your dog gets hold of it again, since a damp plush toy left in a bed is not particularly pleasant for anyone.
Check the rubber ring itself every so often for cracks, since that is the part doing most of the work when a dog pulls hard, and a ring that splits can leave a sharp edge behind. Once the plush cover starts to fray at the seams, it is worth retiring the toy rather than letting a determined dog finish the job and swallow the stuffing.

Common questions
- Is the Coolpet Koala tough enough for a strong chewer?
- Probably not on its own. The plush outer is comfortable to carry and shake, but it is not built to survive a determined chewer the way a solid rubber or rope toy is, so treat it as a play toy rather than a chew toy.
- Does Coolpet make toys for cats too?
- Not on our site currently — the range we carry is aimed at dogs. If you are looking for something similar for a cat, our cat-toys range has comparable soft and interactive pieces from other brands.
- Can I leave my dog alone with a Coolpet toy?
- For a gentle chewer, generally yes, but it is worth watching the first few sessions to see how your own dog treats it. Any soft toy with a squeaker or ring insert should come away once it starts to fray, rather than being left to fall apart.
