FETCH, FIDO
“Throw it, tug it; your dog will love it.” That’s what Mystic Knotwork says about its monkey fist rope dog toy. Essentially a tennis ball covered in marlinspike work, the 4-inch toy is available in navy blue or gray. A long rope handle keeps hands free from Fido’s enthusiastic slobbering. And, of course, it floats. $18. Mystic Knotwork, Mystic, Connecticut, (860) 525-5722. mysticknotwork.com
