A dog toy (10) comprising a gyroflier disk (12) having a convex upper surface (22), a concave lower surface (24), and a circular rim around the circumference (26). Through the radial center of the disk (12) is an aperture (14). Inserted vertically into the aperture (14) is a short length of rope (16

A dog toy (10) comprising a gyroflier disk (12) having a convex upper surface (22), a concave lower surface (24), and a circular rim around the circumference (26). Through the radial center of the disk (12) is an aperture (14). Inserted vertically into the aperture (14) is a short length of rope (16). The top end of the rope (16) is tied in a knot (18) that is positioned close to, and above, the upper surface (22) of the disk (12). The lower end of the rope (16) is tied in a knot (20) that is positioned close to, and below, the lower surface (22) of the disk (12). The lower knot (20) is large enough to cause the lower edge of the circumferential rim (26) to be positioned sufficiently above a relatively flat surface upon which the toy (10) rests that a dog may be able to insert its mouth under the rim (26) in order to pick up the toy (10). If the toy (10) is at rest on the ground or other relatively flat surface, the dog may pick it up by grabbing the upper knot (18) in its mouth. The dog may chew on the top or bottom rope knots (18, 20) while holding the disk (12) with its paws to stabilize the toy (10).
