Spring has SPRUNG! If you’re like me, the warm weather melts away the rose-colored glasses of winter. Suddenly, you realize it’s May 1st and you still have your Christmas wreath up on your front door. What ensues is an all-out dash to get your home in “spring” condition: wiping down the walls, mopping the floors, making sure there are fresh flowers in the house AT ALL TIMES.
However, if you’re even more like me, there is an extra step in the “springification” of the home—changing out my dog’s toys. The winter toys get washed and put away (or donated), and then we bust out my pup’s spring-time toys. I’ve made a list of some of her favorites.
1. Lily Pal
Nothing gets me in the mood for spring quite like a frog. I love the look of this toy, and my dog goes absolutely nuts for the disc squeaker.
Where to Buy: Here for $10.00
2. Rose The Daisy
I mean, what’s more spring than a potted plant? Nothing. The t-shirt rope is also an added bonus for those tug-of-war enthusiasts.

3. Front Yard Flowers
It is my personal opinion that the best accessory for any spring outfit is a bouquet of flowers. Unfortunately, I am not cool enough to rock this look, but my dog is! She appreciates the crinkles of the flowers, and I appreciate having a dog with “main character energy.”
Where to Buy: Here for $8.49
4. Power Flower
We are going a bit more minimal with this one, but it still fits the theme! My dog is absolutely obsessed with this toy. The shape of the petals allow her to grip it, and the nylon provides a challenge for her chewin’.
Where to Buy: Here for $12.00
5. Snactus
I’m not from the southwest region of the United States, but I imagine that for those who are, the sight of a blooming cactus is a clear indicator that spring is here. My dog is limited in her knowledge regarding plant biodiversity and how it is affected by geography, so she doesn’t really get why this toy is timely. However, this toy IS a rip & reveal with a hidden toy inside, and that is something she is an expert in.
