P.L.A.Y. Cape Buffalo

THE GENTLE GIANT WHO CHARGES STRAIGHT INTO PLAYTIME

There's nothing understated about a buffalo, and there's nothing understated about the way this toy plays. Measuring 23.5cm x 13cm x 15cm, the P.L.A.Y. Cape Buffalo uses sliding hind limbs to add a burst of unpredictable movement to every chase, while an oversized squeaker lets out a deep, distinctive sound that keeps a dog locked onto the game. Part of the Big Five of Africa collection, it's hand-made to handle exactly the kind of charging, tumbling and tackling its namesake is known for.

Why it's a great choice

• Sliding hind limbs built in for unpredictable play: A clever mechanical detail lets the back legs move independently, adding a layer of erratic, lifelike motion that keeps a game of chase or tug far more interesting than a toy that just sits still.

• An oversized squeaker with real presence: The squeaker on this toy is bigger and louder than standard, giving it a distinctive sound that's easy for a dog to track and hard for them to lose interest in.

• Hand-made for real durability: A double layer exterior and double-stitched edges are used throughout construction, giving the Cape Buffalo the kind of reinforced build that can take repeated rough play.

• Filled with recycled material, not virgin plastic: The filling inside this toy is eco-friendly, made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, so the cuddly exterior comes with a genuinely lower-impact interior.

Key benefits for your Dog

• Hypo-allergenic fibrefill for sensitive dogs: The stuffing used throughout is hypo-allergenic, making this a toy that's less likely to trigger a reaction in dogs with sensitive skin or known allergies.

• Machine washable for easy upkeep: When the inevitable mud, drool or garden dirt builds up, the whole toy can go straight into the washing machine and dryer, so it stays fresh without extra effort.

• Made to the same standards as children's products: Every P.L.A.Y. toy is manufactured to the same strict quality standards used for infant and children's products, giving extra peace of mind about what's going into your dog's mouth.

• A satisfying size for shake-and-tug instincts: At 23.5cm x 13cm x 15cm, the Cape Buffalo has enough weight and structure to grip, shake and tug, letting a dog work through natural instincts in a safe outlet.

A sturdy, characterful companion for dogs who play with their whole body and owners who'd rather see that energy go into a toy than the sofa.
