Sometimes you’ll come across a brand which really resonates with you and your dog and that’s how I felt when I first met Beco Pets; an eco-friendly dog brand focusing on fun and healthy products (which are good for your dog and the environment too). It was a real honour to subsequently be invited to host Beco Pets first ever Facebook LIVE interview, with Co-Founders George Bramble & Toby Massey. Today I’ll be recapping on my experience at Beco Pets HQ but first, I want to tell you all about Millie’s Top Three favourite Dog Toys from this amazing brand! I think your dog may love them as much we do…
Here I am with Beco Pets Founders, Toby Massey & George Bramble, before we went LIVE on Facebook!
ECO-FRIENDLY DOG PRODUCTS (WHICH HAVE BECOME OUR BENCHMARK!)
There’s so much to love about Beco Pets; from food bowls to an incredible range of dog food (and so much more – you can find out ALL about them in our Facebook LIVE interview towards the end of this blog post!) For now though, I’m going to focus on our personal favourite so far…THEIR TOYS!! As Millie is Chief Toy Taster, these are her Top Three (especially for you…)
Enough photos, let’s play!! Even Ted wanted to join in!
The Beco Ball (£4.49 – £9.99)
If you follow any of our social media channels, you’ll have no doubt seen shots of Millie playing with her all time favourite toy; The Beco Ball. When I say this is her favourite toy, I am not exaggerating! She always seeks this ball out, above any other ball / toy we have at home. She would play with this ALL day if she could! They’re not just for small dogs either as you can choose from 4 Beco Ball sizes and 3 colours.
Medium Beco Ball (£5.49)
Small Beco Ball (£4.49)
So what makes them so good? Firstly, the size. We have the Medium and Small and it’s the Small which definitely gets Millie’s vote! Being a small dog, I think she enjoys carrying something petite which isn’t a struggle for her little mouth. Secondly, the texture. It is unlike any other ball I’ve found on the market to date and I think it’s this texture, which Millie simply loves. Made from natural rubber and rice husk fibres, she can squash it between her teeth but it remains remarkably untouched. From our experience it’s exceedingly hardwearing (we’ve actually had her green one since last year and it’s still in great condition considering it’s used multiple times a day!)
Millie’s happy place!
Coming through!!!
Given it’s light nature, it can be also be thrown far, so she can have lots of fun chasing it. Each ball is also hollow, which means you can even hide treats inside! For me, the Beco Ball is the benchmark for all other balls in the dog world. Personally, I can’t recommend them highly enough.
George The Giraffe (£6.99 – £11.99)
Fancy something different to play with at home (or even take on walkies like we do!) then George The Giraffe could be the one for you! Millie absolutely adores George, one of six adorable animal themed toys on offer. Did you know, each of the Six animal characters are actually named after Staff Members at Beco Pets?! Absolutely love it, as it really goes to show their sense of humour and the family feel of this brand.
George The Giraffe (he’s a smashing fellow!)
The one time a dachshund will be taller than a giraffe!
A pawfect alternative to take with you on walkies!
Yippee!! George The Giraffe is a great walkies pal!
Each toy comes in three sizes (Millie models with the smallest George The Giraffe) as she likes to carry toys around where possible! This one is ideal for gallivanting around with, as you can see! The texture is really interesting too as the toy is stuffed with recycled bottles (and even has a squeaker so it’s great to attract your dog’s attention). The toys are hard wearing from our experience, yet also soft too. A great alternative to the average dog toy.
BALL ON A ROPE (£6.99 – £9.99)
If Millie hadn’t already discovered the pure joy of the Beco Ball, the Beco Pets Ball on a Rope would undoubtedly have been a firm favourite for Millie! Despite it being the same material, it is heavier due to the rope and I think for this reason, Millie prefers the lighter version of the Beco Ball (lazy girl!) Don’t get me wrong, this rope toy is fantastic, I just wish I had introduced it to Millie sooner as sadly in her mind, nothing quite compares to the Beco Ball (obsessed much?!!)
Ball on a Rope (£6.99-9.99)
Ball diameter ranges from 5cm to 7.5cm
The rope is 100% cotton and toxin free and is extremely strong and durable. This would make a great toy to take to the park for a game of fetch or even a fun tug of war for perhaps slightly larger, sturdier dogs. The Rope Toy comes in two sizes and three colours (Pink, Blue & Green). My advice though, if your dog has slight obsessional tendencies like Millie (!) introduce this toy first before The Beco Ball, so your dog has the opportunity to really enjoy it!
Millie’s busy smiling with her Ball on a Rope!
It’s tiring work playing with such great toys!

Sarah, Ted & Millie xxx
Some lovely products there! Especially they are eco friendly…
We have only ever bought there poo bags before 🐾
Aren’t they fab, Amy?! I have been seriously impressed with their products (as has Millie!) and I agree, it’s so great they’re eco-friendly too. The Beco Ball really has set the benchmark for us for other dog toy products; I’ve never known Millie to be quite so obsessed with anything as much. Think Hunter & Maple would LOVE them too! Thanks so much for taking the time to read and to comment, we really appreciate it xx
Lovely photos of the pups Sarah and the toys look great.
Can I ask, how hard wearing are the balls?
Daisy likes to rip them to shreds but you mentioned they’re hollow for treats to go in, so I figured they may be worth a try!
Xx
Thanks so much, Rachel. I’ve personally found the balls to be extremely hard wearing. Their material is unlike anything I’ve come across before and Millie literally uses hers multiple times a day!! As the material is quite pliable, I should imagine it would be quite difficult for a dog to get sufficient purchase on it to enable them to rip it. Worth noting their natural rubber toys have a money-back guarantee though, so worth a try! Let me know if you do get any of the toys, would love to know what you & Daisy think xx
What a fabulous write up Sarah and the products look awesome. I’ve seen them around and am always drawn to their products and the fact that they are good for dogs and the environment. I think Aston would just love that cute George Giraffe, it might make a change from his favourite pink flamingo!!
Oh thanks ever so much, Dee, that’s really kind of you. Oh I think a Flamingo / Giraffe combo would go down a treat for Aston!! Even Ted like to play with George the Giraffe and he’s not really a toy player to be honest! Millie loves carrying it around and it’s great as an alternative for a ball on a dog walk too! Thanks for reading and commenting xx
Brilliant write up and review. Really shines through that you’ve (Millie) has personal experience with them. Until you did your FB live I had no idea they did toys. Stanley has a water and feed bowl which the quality is outstanding-good for the environment too.
Oh that’s so kind, Jordan, thank you very much! I’m really glad that shines through. Glad you’ve learnt something new too from watching our interview, that’s so lovely to hear! Yes, I’m yet to try their water and feed bowls…definitely next on the list I think!! Thanks for reading and commenting xx
Fantastic review Sarah. I love the look of George the Giraffe. Great to have eco friendly toys that work for small mouths too!
Thanks lovely Caroline! Really appreciate you reading and commenting. I agree, it’s great they have a selection for all sizes of dogs. Millie is so teeny tiny so she loves having toys which she can easily fling around!! xx
I really enjoyed the interview with you, George Bramble and Toby Massey. A fabulous company, with lovely products of which we have many of and our collection is ever growing. Looks like Millie shares the same passion for Beco toys as much as Toby and Bertie!
Thanks so much, Katie! I’m thrilled you enjoyed our interview. It was such a privilege to work with them on their first ever Facebook Live. I agree, they’re such a fabulous company. Seems Millie, Toby & Bertie have very good taste indeed! xx
Great review on what look like fantastic products. Winnie, doesn’t like balls, her go to toy is old plastic plant pots!!!! Think we ay have t give George the Giraffe a go!
Sorry should read…Think we may have to give George the Giraffe a go!
Thanks so much for reading and commenting, Hannah! Sound like Ted & Winnie are pretty similar, as he’s not really one for toys either (that’s definitely Millie’s department!) But even Ted LOVES George the Giraffe (I love catching him playing with it when he think nobody is watching!) xx
I have seen first hand how durable they are when we met you this weekend, and how much Millie loves the small one when she went rooting round in your bag when she knew it was there!
It was impressed with how light it was but how bouncy it is so I’ll be giving one a try for my ball obsessed whippet.
Haha, wasn’t she hilarious with it, Kerry?!! She always manages to track it down as she really does love it so much!! It’s great they’re easy to wipe clean too when they inevitably find a bit of mud!! Hope your little one loves it as much as Millie does! Thanks so much for reading and commenting xx
