Ancol Playtime Jumbo Rope Tugger Dog Toy

Ancol Playtime Jumbo Super Rope – 52cm

The Jumbo Super Rope is the heavyweight of Ancol's rope toys: 52cm long, but thick, so the length is all in the diameter rather than in reach. A big dog can get a proper mouthful of it and a handler can wrap a fist round the other end, which is what makes it hold up to serious tug rather than being pulled apart in a fortnight.

The rope is naturally strong cotton, made with recycled fibre. Cotton rope earns its place beyond tug: the strands work between the teeth as a dog gnaws, which helps keep teeth and gums in order in a way a moulded toy does not.

Performance & Benefits

• 52cm of thick cotton rope, built for big and boisterous dogs.
• Naturally strong cotton, made using recycled fibre.
• Thick enough for a full-handed grip at the handler's end.
• Rope strands help support healthy teeth and gums as the dog chews.
• Made for tug-of-war and hard interactive sessions rather than gentle carrying.

Suitable For

• Large, strong dogs that pull hard on a tug toy.
• Two-way play with a handler.
• Dogs that need a chew with some dental benefit to it.
• Households moving towards recycled materials.
• Too heavy for puppies, toy breeds and small dogs — the Ancol Playtime Ropey Knot at 30cm or the Ancol Playtime Natural Ropey Triangle at 26cm are the right scale for those.

How to Use

• Hold one end, let the dog take the other, and keep the pulling side to side rather than up and down.
• End the game on your terms and put the rope away, so it stays a tug toy rather than a chew.
• Trim off loose strands as they appear.
• Wash by hand and dry fully; do not leave it wet in a bag.

Care & Caution

• Designed for tugging and play, and not indestructible. Always supervise your dog during use.

• Swallowed rope strands can cause serious internal blockages. Retire the rope well before it unravels.
• Match the toy to your dog's size and chewing strength.
