Each certified organic knit Mobi the Squirrel has two squeakers and is great for dogs who love to carry around their "baby," squeaking them to get your attention or squeaking them just because they want to. They're also non-toxic and saliva-resistant.
This toy starts out as untreated cotton thread that is then woven into gently flowing fabric and brightened with nature's own plants and minerals, such as gardenia seed, clove and chestnut bur. The fabric is then hand-dyed repeatedly in soy-water to set the color. And because these toys are organic, the production process creating them causes no damage to natural ecosystems including contamination in the water due to pesticide residue and chemicals.
The importance of organic cotton from Simply Fido's website:
One third of the world’s pesticides are used on cotton crops alone. These chemicals are absorbed into the cotton plant, the air, the soil, the water and eventually, our bodies. These harmful toxins also make their way back into our food chain - the cotton seeds are used to feed the cattle we get our milk and beef from, and also used to make cotton seed oil, a cornerstone of the processed foods most families eat every day; and it's just not bad for the planet; 20,000 deaths occur each year from pesticide poisoning in developing countries, many of these from cotton farming, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
