About

Your Pet Is A Family Member

Since 2015, SteelDog USA has been creating high-quality, affordable dog toys and cat toys designed for healthy play, enrichment, and fun. Our mission is simple: to support the well-being of pets through durable, thoughtfully designed toys that keep tails wagging and paws engaged.

From chew toys and plush toys to treat-dispensing enrichment toys, we offer a wide range of interactive products for dogs and cats of all ages. Our best-selling collections include Barnyard Buddies, Ropers, Ballistic Ballers, and our innovative Slow-Treater toys for rewarding mental stimulation.

At SteelDog, we take play seriously. Our own pack of Goldens, Labs, Frenchies, and Persians have tested (and approved!) every toy — ensuring they’re both fun and tough enough to keep up with even the most playful pets.

We proudly serve pet lovers across North America, the U.K., and Australia, with continued growth around the globe. Whether you’re shopping for dog rope toys, puzzle toys, catnip kitten toys, or durable plush toys, we’re here to bring joy and enrichment to your pet’s everyday routine.

John & Ben

A Friendship To Partnership.

John and Ben met over a shared sense of humor and mutual respect. What started as lighthearted banter quickly evolved into a strong friendship—and an even stronger business partnership. With complementary backgrounds—John in sales, marketing, and operations, and Ben in finance and strategic operations—they combined their skill sets with a shared passion for dogs and entrepreneurship.

Together, they built SteelDog USA on a foundation of smart business practices, strong relationships, and a love for pets. Their goal: to create a brand that delivers high-quality, affordable dog and cat toys that enrich play and support pet wellness around the world.
