Why Our Dog Toys Cost More
At Loblola, we know our dog toys aren't the cheapest, but there's a reason for that. Actually, several.
We believe in making the best dog toys possible, ones that aren't just functional, but also safe, durable, beautifully-designed, and ethically-sourced. That means we take a different approach than many big pet brands. Here's why our prices reflect the true value of our products:
Made in the USA with Fair Wages
Many pet toys are mass-produced overseas where labor is cheap and working conditions are unregulated. We choose to manufacture right here in the USA, ensuring that every person involved in making our toys earns a fair, livable wage. That's not the cheapest way to do things, but it's the right way.
Premium, Long-Lasting Materials
Nature is at the heart of everything we do which is why we don't mass-produce toys containing cheap plastics and fillers that break down quickly. Our toys are made from high-quality, durable material designed to withstand real play. That also means your dog stays safer with non-toxic, FDA-approved, thoughtfully chosen materials.
Designed with Care and Purpose
We don't just make dog toys; we craft them. Every design takes time, research, testing, and tweaking to ensure it's not only visually stunning but also functional, engaging, and enriching for dogs of all breeds and sizes. We pay attention to the details, like natural shape, color, and texture, that many brands aren't focused on. Our inspiration comes directly from the natural world, because we believe dogs are happiest when they can connect to the outdoors and their wild roots.
Giving Back to Dogs and the Planet
When you buy a Loblola toy, you're not just making your pup happy—you're making a difference. We donate 5% of every order to canine welfare and environmental causes, supporting everything from dog rescues to reforestation projects. We're also a proud member of 1% for the Planet. That means when you purchase from us, you're not just giving your dog a beautiful enrichment toy—you're helping protect the world they love to explore.
A True-to-Nature Approach
Dogs are deeply connected to nature, and so are we. That's why we prioritize true-to-nature design, responsible manufacturing, and eco-conscious giving in everything we do.
At the end of the day, we'd rather make a few truly great toys than mass-produce cheap ones. We'd rather use our business as a force for good than place profits over people, pups, or the planet. Our higher price reflects better materials, fair labor, thoughtful design, and real impact.
We know you care about what you give your dog. We do too.
