Red, White and Chew Dog Toy

Patriotism means something different to everyone, but with My Good Dog’s new chew toy, even your pooch can play with pride. The red, white and blue Chew Shoe is molded in the U.S. with Vibram pet-safe rubber.

Bonus: $2 from every purchase goes to the Dog Tags program that benefits soldiers returning from Afghanistan and Iraq.

The Dog Tags program was established by Puppies Behind Bars, which is a program where prison inmates train puppies to become service dogs. The puppies are eventually paired with injured soldiers returning from war at no cost.

While I’m not so sure it’s a great idea to teach Fido to chew on shoes, this 12-inch durable chew toy is all about the cause.

The chew toy is currently available for $16. www.mygooddog.com
