Autumn Handled Tug – Interactive Fleece Tug Toy

Play • Create • Inspire

Bring interactive play into your pet’s routine with the Nova Zeal Autumn Handled Tug, inspired by crisp woodland walks, fallen leaves and cosy evenings.

Perfect for short games at home, training rewards, or strengthening the bond between you and your dog, this tug toy offers a safe outlet for play while keeping interaction calm and structured.

Braided by hand in the Scottish Highlands using soft anti-pill fleece, the handled design gives you a comfortable grip while remaining gentle on your dog's teeth and gums.

Why Tug Play Matters

Tug games can help dogs channel their energy in a positive way while building trust between pet and handler. Structured play encourages focus, confidence and engagement.

Handled tug toys are ideal for:

• Training reward games
• Bonding sessions after walks
• Confidence building through play
• Short indoor games on rainy days
• Structured interactive play with your dog 

The Autumn Collection

Inspired by the changing season, the Autumn Collection celebrates crisp woodland walks, colourful fallen leaves and cosy evenings.

This design features a seasonal palette of Rust and Plum, complemented by a beautiful autumn print. Together, these colours create a rich, layered design that captures the warmth and beauty of autumn. 

When translated into fleece, these tones create depth and texture within the finished handled tug toy, blending thoughtful design with purposeful enrichment.

The result is a handcrafted handled tug toy that celebrates the colours of the season while encouraging natural foraging behaviour.
