Uganda Pet Tug Toy: Natural Play, Community Impact

Playful Weave, Powerful Story

Artisans near Lake Kyoga harvest raffia palm and banana leaf, twist the fibers into thick cords, and braid them into a 15-inch rope with easy-grip knots at both ends. No plastics, no dyes—just plant fibers tough enough for a spirited game of tug. Prosperity Wages from Ten by Three turn every toy into steady income that keeps families together and wetlands protected.

Fetch, Tug, Repeat

• Tug-of-War Favorite – Knotted ends give pups and people a solid hold for safe, satisfying pulls.
• Fetch & Chew – Lightweight rope flies far yet lands softly; textured fibers help clean teeth.
• Gift or Décor – Tie to a basket handle or hook when not in play; natural tones blend with any pet nook.

PRODUCT CARE

• Shake debris free; brush with a dry cloth if needed.
• • For a deeper clean, rinse quickly in cool water, squeeze, and air-dry completely.
• Inspect regularly—replace if fibers fray excessively.
• Indoor use prolongs life; store out of persistent dampness.

ARTISAN NOTES: Because every braid is hand-twisted, length and knot size vary slightly. Looking for a shorter rope or thicker knots? Email support@tenbythree.org and we’ll match the closest option.
