In dog years, it’s about damn time.

Decades after brothers Roy and Ryan Seiders founded their bona fide outdoor empire, Yeti will bring its reputation for durability to a category in dire need: dog toys.

Comprised of two balls and an 18-inch bumper for larger dogs, the collection is part of the 2025 Gear Garage, an annual sales event that sees the brand release limited-edition items.

Dog toys are “something that we’ve been talking about for a long time,” says Derek Sullivan, the director of industrial design at Yeti. “It’s always been a really popular ask from our consumers.”

While toys are indeed untrodden ground for Yeti, the collection is far from the first products servicing what Sullivan calls its “canine customers.”

Yeti released the Rambler Dog Bowl in 2018 and previously sold a dog bed, which it phased out in 2022.

According to Sullivan, he and his team “didn’t set out to reinvent the wheel” when designing dog toys. “We just wanted to deliver a product that lives up to the Yeti brand in terms of durability.”

They landed on three designs made out of heavy-duty, non-toxic thermoplastic rubber (TPR), each affixed to a thick webbing handle for rough games of tug.

Safety, of course, was also important. The balls are hollow to allow “space for air to flow,” Sullivan says. “No matter how the dog’s got it, they won’t have a hard time breathing as they run around with them in their mouth.”

Availability and pricing

Like any Gear Garage drop from Yeti, the dog toys are expected to sell quickly. And once they’re gone, who knows how long it will take until Yeti decides to bring them back — if they do so at all.

This time around, the dog toys are a limited drop, meaning they won’t stay in stock after the initial stock runs out.

That said, Sullivan doesn’t rule out the possibility.

“If there’s a really good reaction, then maybe they come back. Who knows?” he says. “Fundamentally, we’re always looking to solve problems for consumers.

“But sometimes, the problem is more about having fun than being super utilitarian. This, to me, kind of falls in that realm.”

The dog toys are available from Saturday, November 29, while supplies last. Pricing starts at $20.
