Ummm... I can't think of any others. Jackson's not so much into these types of toys, he just seems not to care that much, LOL. Of course, Kong makes a lot of stuff too.
The Nina Ottosson toys are great. The plastic versions are typically less expensive than the wooden ones if you aren't wanting to spend too much. As far as pups chewing on them, my girls only use them when supervised, so I can immediately tell them no if they start to chew. They haven't showed any interest in chewing them thus far.

My girls also like the Aikiou bowl toy a lot. As you can see they tend to use their paws more than their mouths to move stuff around and open it:



We won a tug-a-jug in a contest a few months ago, and I think it is complete crap, so maybe I am doing something wrong. I can barely make the treats come out and I know how it works. The dogs tend to lick end with the holes cut out, but I'm not impressed. I tried Zukes Mini Naturals (size of pencil eraser maybe) treats at first thinking they'd be a good size and they seemed too big and would get "squished" by the rope in the opening. I've tried Cocotherapy chips but some of the smaller pieces just leak out (not necessarily when the rope is being pulled).
