What to fill KONG Puppy with: It is best to use KONG treats and paste or dog peanut butter and treats, but you can also try homemade filling. It can also be wet food. Challenge your pet further and extend the fun - place KONG in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours before giving it to your dog.
How to start: Show the puppy KONG. Present it in an excited voice. Do not give the toy immediately - let it be a hard-to-get reward for a while. Encourage and draw your dog's attention to the delicious treats inside. Give your pet the chew toy.
How to clean KONG: It's simple: all KONG rubber toys can be washed in the dishwasher, on the top rack. Any dried remnants of treats in the toy can be easily removed with a bottle brush if soaked beforehand. You can use dish soap. Remember: KONG Puppy is designed with safety in mind, but no dog toy is indestructible. Watch how your puppy plays with the toy until you are sure you can leave your pet alone with KONG. Regularly bend and check the toy for cracks. Discard worn and damaged KONGs immediately.
Tip: When your dog's teeth are fully formed (around 9 months of age), replace KONG Puppy with KONG Classic (suitable for most breeds) or KONG Extreme (for destructive dogs) depending on their chewing style.
