The Kong toy is designed to be filled with your dogs favourite treats and food. It is important for dogs to succeed at their "work". To start with, make it easy to remove the kong stuffing. As they become more experienced, you can start to make it more challenging by: Pack stuffing tighter. Wedge biscuits inside the cavity using the inside rim of the opening to secure them. FREEZE IT! Very Popular! Try various combinations of canned food, gravy, noodles, rice and mashed potatoes mixed with food nuggets and freeze. You're your dog cool with KONGSICLES. Put a dab of peanut butter in the small end of the Kong to plug it. Turn it upside down in a cup. Fill it full of water, chicken broth or fruit juice and freeze. CHEESE IT! Mix cheese pieces or cheese spread with food nuggets and microwave until cheese melts. Let it cool to a safe temperature. NOTE - Use a cup to ro hold the kong upright when freezing or microwaving. Hide stuffed Kongs indoors and/or out. The hunt is great fun and rewarding. IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN USING KONGS: Provide stuffed Kongs randomly so they won't always be associated with you leaving. If your dog is unstuffing several Kongs per day, you should appropriately reduce the amount of bowl feeding. CLEAN KONGS THOROUGHLY AFTER USE! Dishwasher is recommended. Your dog's job will last until the Kongs are unstuffed. You can keep your dog "working" all day if you provide enough stuffed Kongs!

This is funny!! Thats more than what my dogs eat in a whole day ! Who feed thier dog all that crap?! I cant belive they can say it is good for them! - i know the hunting and working for the food is we just put a tiny bit of fish paste in ours and that keeps them busy for hours... I think my dogs would have the shits for days if i gave them all of that! ha ha

Yep, that was me Shakka, Macy has one and she loves it. It's lasted pretty well considering what staffies are like and rip stuff to pieces in minutes. It is just a tennis ball that makes the top part of it so that gets destroyed pretty quick once they're through the outer cover, not sure what the rest of it is, she hasn't got that far yet but it feels like a similar material.
