For Cinco de Mayo this year, BarkShop created a fun set of squeaky dog toys that includes shapely playthings inspired by bowls of guacamole, margaritas, spicy green peppers and maracas.
The Mexican-inspired dog toys boasts some elements that are soft and squeaky, as well as others that are spiky, offering a range of textures for dogs to chew. Toys like the jalapeño and the rattling maracas both have ropes built into their designs, which is ideal for playing tug-of-war with one's pet.
BarkShop is selling its complete festive four-piece dog toy collection for Cinco de Mayo as part of a cost-saving 'Fiesta Bundle,' although each of the squeaky dog toys is also available for purchase individually.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Pet Toy Diversity Trend
- Pet owners are looking for a range of textures and shapes in pet toys, offering an opportunity for toy companies to create innovative designs.
- Holiday-themed Pet Toys Trend
- Creating playful and festive pet toys around different holidays can be another lucrative avenue for pet toy companies.
- Multifunctional Pet Toys Trend
- Toys with additional ropes or components built-in, such as tug-of-war elements, could appeal to pet owners looking for added value in their purchases.
